Type Public
Par 72
Length 7095 yards
Slope 133
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.

Good course layout. Managed well from bag drop to starter and clubhouse. We'll be back.

Had to quit after 9 holes because of an urgent appointment. Can you give us a 9 hole raincheck?

Course Progressing Nicely after Reseeding

Cart Path Only (CPO) conditions. Tee boxes good; fairways still filling-in but acceptable; traps with inconsistent levels of sand depth; greens firm, rolling true but slow. Pace was very slow at start (due to CPO), but did open up on back (4.5 hours total). Good value (with TeeOff hot deal). Should be in excellent condition in another 7-10 days.

Nice course in good shape

Course in great shape after just reopening from overseeding. Good layout, some hard holes, some target golf, and overall in really good shape. Fast play, did not have to wait at all.
