Dobson Ranch Golf Course

The sand traps were more like dried mud than sand. the rough and tees needed to be mowed some areas had 4-5 inches of grass. Fairways had areas with very little grass. Greens were ok, but had many areas of dead or dormant grass on the fringes.

None of the water drinking fountains on the course worked.

Booked a hot deal for me and a friend. Was his 1st time playing Dobson Ranch. Afternoons in July are a bit much for him. Said, he can’t wait to play again in October ⛳️😜

Should have mentioned there is some water left on the later hole 🕳️ 😬

Incredible staff and ownership here, fun layout and the best driving range around with toptracer!

I used to play dobson ranch all the time when I lived closer. It's a well laid out course with challenging holes but also plenty of getable holes. Greens were pretty rough, to be expected in az summer, but there was alot of small rocks and pebbles that really were an issue most of the day.

Over the last few years they have updated their facilities, especially the driving range, which is great for fun and beginners. My biggest issue with the course comes from incident I had when playing my latest round after a 5-6 year hiatus from playing this course. The listed prices were, $24 dollars for a ranch card holder, $34 for a Maricopa resident, and $44 for non residents. I selected the $34 dollar option but when arriving at the course they initially charged me $49!!! I complained about the error and was granted a refund, however I was immediately approached by a random player on the driving range before the round and he told me that the same issues has happened to him multiple times. Overall not bad for a cheaper course but felt pretty uneasy about the issues with the staff.

Really disappointed in how much bare dirt are in the fairways, weeds on the tee boxes, etc. With all that said the greens are still in pretty good shape and doesn't have nearly as many dead patches. Greens are still very challenging.

Fairways were burned and greens were bumpy, we still had a good time.

Ice machine and water was wonderful. Thanks for having it.

Got up early before sunrise to teeoff before 6 am. It was a fabulous day with three other golfers which I had never met. Done in under 3 hours and 40 minutes. Good time. Greens were a little bumby and some spots were not fully grown in, but that was just what courses go through this time of year.

The course was in good condition. The staff is friendly and helpful as always. I will definitely play here again

I’ve been playing here since I was a kid in the 80s. The course played well and the greens rolled true. The pace of play was a little slow, but it picked up in the back 9. The staff are awesome. I will be back again and again this summer.

The course is okay. I have a hard time playing a course where the fairways are shorter than the greens. Too often, you're on dirt in the fairway. Yes, I know it's summer, but don't cut them so short. No cart lady and we had to pay their back nine twice. If I'd have known that when I booked, I probably wouldn't have booked.

Haven’t played Dobson Ranch in a while. The last few rounds were well over 4 1/2 hrs. Yesterday, probably helped by 112F heat, I and 3 others made it around in 3hrs 40 minutes. Course conditions were decent, though the greens were starting be impacted by heat (they’re aerating in a couple days). Will definitely need to put back into regular rotation!
