Moved our Tee Time

We had a 1:15 pm tee time…..we got there early and hit a bucket of balls…..at 12:50 we checked in and then went to Hole 1 where the started told us our tee time was 1:33pm? I showed him my confirmation email….he basically said this is what is on my sheet you’ll need to go to the clubhouse. We went back to the clubhouse who told us we needed to move you…..of course they said nothing about moving out tee time when we checked in…..of course the later you play the rate goes down….if we wanted to pay less we would have booked the later tee time…..they were 15 minutes behind…..so we had a 33 minute later start….very frustrating.

Very nice course with friendly employees and a great little clubhouse/restaurant. We enjoyed this course. Marshall’s came around to ensure everyone got the dust storm advisory and advised of actions to take. Highly recommend this course.

Dobson golf

Overall the course was in good condition. Pace of play was bad, too many tee times and waited for on every hole. Group in front had 2 holes open. Ranger did talk with them but said they were playing as fast as they could. Said we could skip ahead of them but then of course we only play 16-17 holes of golf. Course is nice, tight but in good shape.

Great muni course

Really pleasant muni course that is well maintained. Solid course for high handicappers with mostly forgiving lies if your ball doesn’t find fairway.

Great Condition & Fast Greens

The course is in excellent condition, greens are perfect and very fast. If at all possible, don't get above the hole or a side hill lie on the green. Your putt may race past the hole 10-15 feet. I hadn't played this course in many years, it was always a good course, but now I believe it's as good or better than most of the privately owned upscale courses and some country clubs in the greater Phoenix area. You have to love the driving range with tracers too. The overall experience is great, there are many things to do at this facility; grab lunch, practice putting and chipping on the practice greens, play corn hole, and ping pong. I could stay here all day.
