Solid muni

Always a pretty good value for a muni. Zero sand in the bunkers though, that needs to be fixed.

Consistently Great

I always enjoy playing here. The service is consistently outstanding, and the conditions are always good. It can get backed up sometimes but that’s because it’s a great place to play.

Great shape as always!

Dobson Ranch has come a long way over the last couple decades I have been playing it. No wonder it’s so hard to grab a tee time during peak season. It is one of the best courses in the Valley for the money = value!

With AZ heat and hot summer greens rolled great and were easy to hold the ball. Thanks Dobson for always keeping your conditions great year round with extreme weather environments.

Nice muni with uninteresting layout

Course is nice and located in a residential community. They have put a lot of investment into range facilities and surroundings. Course is fairly open but has an abundance of mature trees to provide shade and d challenge your shots at times. Play is a bit slow as a with layout enabling play from adjacent holes all over the place. Good customer service. Decent course

Ranch Delivers a Good Value

DR always delivers a good value. The staff is incredible and pace of play hits right at 4 hours. Greens were running a bit slower than normal, but probably due to severe storm night before.

First Time Playing

Dobson Ranch

This is a beautiful course. The lady by Hole 1 was super helpful and gave us great tips for Hole 9/10 to use a colored ball as that hole has lots of rehire range balls. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The range was top notch and course is well maintained and challenging. My family really enjoyed this course and we will be back.
