Rating 73.1

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.

Best shape I have ever seen a golf course in!

I have played Dove Valley couple times and it’s always been a nice course but this last time I played it was one of the most enjoyable experiences I’ve ever had on a golf course. The pace of play was perfect. The greens were perfect. The fairways were perfect. The weather was perfect. It was one of the most enjoyable rounds of golf I’ve ever played in my life. I have never wrote a review for really anything and I had to go out of my to write this because of my experience. Also shot 74 from the tips so beat that haha

Jewel In The Cave

Definitely worth the drive out from Scottsdale! Really nice design and maintenance. Front and back were two contrasts - challenging but very playable and residential homes didn’t come into play much. Weather was a challenge and who would expect 48F temps but the clouds and sunset were amazing!

Quality Course

Nice course, played round in 4.25 hours. Hot dog or sandwiches could be ready for making the turn quicker. Slightly over priced but what isn't these days.

Outstanding golf course

I’m played quite a few of the courses in the Phoenix area,(priced under $150) and besides Quintero, this was one of the best.

훌륭한 골프코스

주변경관, 코스관리 상태등 최고의 멋진 골프장인데 스탭들의 운영수준은 조금 미흡한바 있습니다. 그리고 볼 닦는 수건과 물 정도는 제공해주었으면 합니다. 다음 번에 꼭 다시 한번 와 보고싶은 훌륭한 골프장입니다.
