Golfer Reviews
B+
An Above average golf course for price and conditions. It was a busy day and there’s some sort of waiting here and there, but my round only took 4 hours 15 minutes. Not bad at all. I will play here again.
Fun course
Always super friendly here! Great practice range and practice greens! Course condition on this round was just okay due to them prepping for overseeding next week. Greens were actually running pretty smooth and fast. I'll be back
Not for the public
Convinced me to buy a smash pass and ranch card thinking it would make golf more convenient. They’ve shut down the course and range multiple times without any word besides a Facebook post , they shut it down for random social media events and college practice . Would not recommend buying any memberships from them because it does not grant you access on a majority of the days .
Legendary Dobson Ranch!
I routinely play the legendary Dobson ranch with white ice. Last time out he shot a 39 on the back from the tips. Also the bunkers have the finest sand - ice hit an 18 foot backspin shot from 40 yards out on number 6. A lot like sevvie ballesteros.
The vibe here is amazing. Thank you for continuing to provide an amazing experience.

Terrible Condition
Couldn’t find much grass in the fairways, mostly dirt. I’ve been here in Scottsdale for two weeks and played here based on the reviews. This course is by far the worst one I’ve played. Non member green fees with a cart are way over priced based on the poor condition of the course.
DOB Ranc
I went as a single, as always teamed up with some good players that were very nice and friendly. I did forget my rangefinder, and when I came back the following week, I was able to retrieve it from lost and found from the cart barn employee by the name of Mark, this just tells you that the staff is honest, hard-working, and a pleasure to be around
Great course, great value
Great facility and course, I love to play here! Highly recommend!
Great course, horrible course pace managers
I've played here 3 times now and the course is beautiful and maintained really well. Also 90% of the staff are friendly and nice to communicate with. However every time I've come here with out fail I've had a course pace manager yell at us for some thing or another. I've been playing golf since I was 14 (I'm 26 now) I know what a good pace to the game is and if you're going to be spending 40-80 bucks a game I'd expect a better way to make you feel appreciated for coming and playing no matter the skill level.
Great experience
Dobson ranch is a very nice course. Greene were fast. Course was in excellent condition. Pace of play was good as well. Can’t wait to go back.
Disappointed
The rate for a round was the only saving grace. Conditions were fine for the summer, but there were two major issues - pace of play was atrocious and course layout. The starter seemed like it was his first day and did not organize the groups. 5+ hour round on a Wednesday afternoon. Imagine a Saturday morning. The layout is stacked so close that you’ll have people hitting into you for most of the front 9, which slows pace even more. Overall unfortunate as the course is in a good location. I’m practice facility is cool if you like hitting off mats, they’re also shaded which is nice.
Very Enjoyable
Pro shop staff was super welcoming, the starter was friendly and got us off to a good start, the greens were fine. As I review this, it's just ahead of overseeding and so the tee boxes and fairways can use it...but, they were pretty good overall.
great staff, top public facility
staff gave us info on "Ranch Card" and free demo of "Smashers on the Range", great practice and warm-up areas, teed off early because 1st hole was open.
Hello Jay,
Thank you for taking the time to share this review with us.
The Ranch Card and Smash Pass are programs designed to make the course more accessible to everyone by making the cost of golf and practice significantly lower over time. Every so often, our course does get an inquiry for a tournament for charity, Junior/College events, as well as traveling leagues. Anytime we have an event like this, we post about it through every outlet we have available as well as blocking all tee times so that there are no booking conflicts.
The same applies for the driving range, as we host corporate outings, junior clinics, women's clinics, community events, and more but they don't often take the entire range. Anytime there is limited space on the range we post on social media and send emails to our opt in customers.
While we are always working to improve, we understand that we can't be perfect and sometimes people have back luck in showing up only to find we are hosting an event, or have a longer wait than normal to use the facility. I would love an opportunity to make this right with you, so please give me a call on my cell phone at (925)-980-1006 at your earliest convenience.
Best,
Andrew Frazier
