Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club

I gave Dove Valley Golf Course a 5-Star rating overall, however my only major complaint is that they have a “cart paths only” policy currently in place. This made our round take far longer than necessary and I honestly do not plan on going back until I am advised of a change. That being said, I loved the course and it is a top notch type of place to play.

The course is in great shape. The greens were fast and also in great shape. It was enjoyable course.

Course was in great shape after reseeding. Didn’t like the cart path only rules, but understand after overseeding.

Fairways and greens were in really good shape, with greens a little slow, again to over seeding.

Fun course!

DVRGC has just reopening after reseeding. As a result, it is CPO, making for a much longer outing with those that use carts (I walk so no problem for me). Tees and fairways were in good condition, while some of the rough remained rough (a real challenge from which to hit). Greens were noticeably slow, still needing time to mature. Most sand traps were in good shape, though some were quite wet from earlier watering. Wait a few more weeks for it to be in its best playing condition.

This may be a $77 course under perfect conditions in March. But, during the cart path only phase of the overseeding process, it is a $40 course. I won't play the course again until they send me a $37 refund X 3.

Always enjoy this course, layout, views & staff. Greens were a little slow but all in all the course was in great shape.

Starter was a jerk, not at all helpful, needs to be trained to be a civil

This is a really hard review to write, because this is really two golf courses. The staff is great, the conditions are pretty good for the summer, the price is right, but you get to hole # 11 and it's suddenly a completely different golf course. I've never understood why blind tee shots are en vogue. To me, it's just lazy course design. A cheap trick to make a hole harder. Holes 11, 12, 14, 15 are so obscured by trees to the point you really don't know where to aim, unless you've played here 10 times, I suppose. Hole 15 is a par 3, 205yds from the black. Which I think is long, but ok, that's fine. Then you walk up to the tee box and you cannot see the green. Absolutely zero part of it. Just bushes. Call me a whiner but I don't enjoy that sort of course design, I'm sorry.

For this reason I would not recommend a high handicapper try this course, or if so, stop at #10.
