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.

Lots of turf and firm greens

Had not played DVR for about 10 years and I was impressed on the return. Nothing about the physical course layout or clubhouse setup has changed.. it's still a relatively flat, desert layout amongst the homes -- but course conditions were impressive! Wall to wall over seed of fairways, greens and tees have come in solid and the dormant bermuda had full coverage into the desert areas. Course was in great shape and condition -- the usual ball marks from a steady amount of play, but you can see the superintendent's efforts, as they sanded and seeded some of the bad ones.. You can see they are making an effort to keep things top notch. Great quick 4 hour round in the afternoon, on a breezy day. Thank you DVR!

Good value

Fairways and greens in excellent shape..fairways are wide. Errant drives run into waste area because of slope. Good value comparing prices in high season.

Good Hotdeal

Played this course couple couple years ago and booked on Hotdeal this year. It is a well groomed course that runs higher than we want to pay at regular rate. Great value as a Hotdeal. Course was in great condition, staff friendly and rate of play was 4.25 hours for 4 players.

Love the lay out

Great layout. Big difference in back 9, but a lot of fun. Shorter tees recommended for old guys like me. Have to be a good target shooter
