Best M-Th value in the East Valley
The management of this course is outstanding and they are constantly improving every aspect of the golf experience. The course has a nice layout and is very flat. That is a plus for me but maybe not appreciated as much by low handicappers. The fairways and traps are well maintained. I've been playing this course since 1978. It has never been better. It has been a lot less expensive in the Winter season so I usually play elsewhere until the M-Th greens fees come down. Weekend price are always relatively high so I usually play elsewhere on Friday's. I play 3 times a week and it could be my Mon. and Wednesday course until the Fall if only they would let you book 30 days out.
Give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
Best Value
Can’t beat their sunset week day deal! I went and was able to play 14 holes with my dad for $15 including cart. Great staff, great course! All around great experience! I will be back many more times with my dad this summer.
Not impressed
I think this course is hyped too much. Good marketing efforts, but not excited to go back. Not sure if it's true but my friend noticed that some area were turf, not real grass. Some holes have these metal decorations that affects your game and the map is not accurate either on my smartwatch or the scorecard they put in the carts. There are creeks or water that are not visible. Some holes are displayed to be straight but then it's a dog leg.
Big changes in the last 7 years!
I was pleasantly surprised at the amazing driving range they have installed since the last time I was here! I only wish they spent some of that money on their greens! Worst greens I’ve played on in a long time. There wasn’t really any grass on them and they were extremely fast because of that. The fairways were also rough in places on a number of holes and the fairway bunkers were rock hard. Played as a solo with 2 pretty cool guys, so we had a fun day regardless
Chaos
Front nine of the course was great. Moderate pace of play. Back nine was absolute chaos, we had groups jumping in front of us after we teed off. It was pretty much a free for all. Kind of surprising because the starter was on top of things on the front nine. And to add to the madness, our cart died on hole 18.
Avoid golf now app at all costs
2nd time I’ve booked a tee time through golf now and showed up at this golf course only to be told there is no available tee time for me. Would prefer to never use your app ever again in my life. Will do everything I can to not use your app.
Hey u314162562517,
Thank you for sharing your experience, and giving us the opportunity to address it. I would love to invite you back to play as our guest if you would be willing to let us make it up to you. Please give me a call on my Cell Phone at (925)-980-1006 so I can get more information about when it was booked and where the breakdown happened so we can avoid these instances in the future.
Best,

Dobson Ranch Golf Course
Always a great value
Dobson is a great course for the price. The layout is fun and the greens are always a challenge. The hitting range is fabulous and the staff is incredibly nice and accommodating.
Don’t use golf now app
2nd time I’ve used this app and showed up to this specific golf course and been told there is no available tee time for me. Received confirmations back each time too. Will never use golf now again. Will call the course directly to book a tee time. Waste of time.
Great course!
I play here probably 3 times a month. Great course, driving range, bar/grill, putting/chipping area and even food delivery to the cart
Fun course
Really nice course, minimal water which helps not lose golf balls, nice mix of distance and challenging greens
Great course, Great time
We had a 6:12 morning tee time and the pace of play was good for having two novice players with us, we were done a little after 10 and had lunch afterwards at the club house, everyone enjoyed their food, my Dobson burger was delicious! The course was in great condition! Looking forward to the next time!
Dobson Ranch
The staff was fantastic and inviting and the course was fun and challenging. I will definitely be back to play again.
Golf for everyone at every level
I was introduced to Dobson Ranch Golf Course 3 years ago by friends that grew up on the course. I’m glad I did, it was right when paradigm management took over. Wow!! The the changes that have been made in the 3 years. Improved staff relationships with customers and to the course, I’m not sure but the changes I’ve seen could be over 1 million dollars. The practice facilities are better than the ones you pay a daily fee to practice on, they encourage not just the lifelong golfers but the have truly taken a vested interest in building a training program for every level of golfer, beginning to pro’s. The youth program is a welcome sight they at Dobson and all the rest of paradigms properties have invested in the industry to build the golfing community. Others talk about building the community, Here they walk the talk and you’ll love the friendly and informative staff members, the teaching pros are serious about helping you.
The course itself is fantastic with many options of tees to play. Greens are usually smooth and quick.. stay below the hole!!
Give them a try you won’t be disappointed and by the way they offer pro tracer on the range with the closest to grass practice pads as you’ll ever see on a range.

Hello u314163721697,
Thanks for sharing your feedback!
Our entire 18 hole course is real grass, with the exception of one patch of artificial turf which is located behind the 12th green where a bridge connects the cart path to the green side area. This was installed during some maintenance for that bridge to help with accessibility. There are some other areas around our driving range that have also been converted to artificial turf for water conservation purposes, but those areas are not in play.
As for the map on the scorecard, it sounds like we failed to explain that it is not a complete map of the course but just a map of the green on each hole. It is intended to show possible pin locations on a given day. I can understand how this would cause some confusion and I apologize that we didn't clarify that point.
I hope this helps clarify some of the confusion and I hope you do come back to give us another chance. If you have further questions please call me on my cell phone at (925)-980-1006 and I'd be happy to help!
Best,
Andrew Frazier
