Robert Trent Jones II designed the golf course at Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club, creating a championship course to shift gently from open play to intimate foliage along Willow Wash. The golf delivers Southwestern authenticity, with etroglyph-etched boulders marking holes. It differs from the "target" golf courses of Arizona in that it features player-friendly golf, manicuring transition spaces so that golfers face minimal penalty when recovering.

At the Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club, Robert Trent Jones II demands strategic and varied shooting, meaning the round of golf will challenge as well as refresh golfers.

After the round at the Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club, head back to the casual elegance of the clubhouse.

Good, but slow back 9 killed the joy

Good.l course. We overpaid, but that is fine. Round marred by really slow play on back 9. We barely finished even though we teed off with enough time to get the round in before dark.

Great course, perfect condition

We played early morning and had a great round. The course is in excellent condition and is exceptional for a public course. I am by a 7 handicap and thoroughly enjoyed it. I will be back.

Golf Course Review

Course fairways were cut down to get ready for the overseeding to take place in October. Still very playable and enjoyable. Greens were in good shape. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Looking forward to playing this track again.

Overpriced for the time of year

It's still summer, and courses charging over $100 a round shouldn't be. I recall a time when summer rates were reasonable. The course is starting to brown out due to preparation for fall overseeding, so this was another reason the rates should have been less. All things considered, it was an enjoyable round on a course that offers a reasonable amount of challenge. The greens were in very good shape, all things considered.

Great course conditions

From the start of entering the premises you feel like you’re entering a first class country club. Clubhouse was very clean and lots to choose from. Free range balls with the round was a big plus. We drove down from Prescott now that the weather is getting cooler in the valley and this was the first time playing here. It was very welcoming. Great practice facility. Very fast greens and great conditions. I couldn’t believe how green it was compared to pictures I had seen on 18Birdies app. I loved the layout and definitely want to come back and try and better my score of 87.

Summertime Golf in AZ

Honestly, if you want a good-quality course with proper fairways and greens, good-working carts, and friendly service from the cart girl to the course manager, it's really hard to beat Dove Valley. Yeah, you pay a little more than you might normally, but they really deliver. I have played at a plethora of different courses this summer in the valley, and so far, Dove Valley has impressed me the most. If you are a beginner looking for something memorable or a veteran wanting some good conditions and friendly staff, this is the place! Thank you, Dove Valley. We will see you several more times before the year ends!
