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.

Great Course and Challenging Back 9

I really enjoyed this course a lot and will return to play very soon. The range was awesome, chipping and putting greens right there. The course is in great shape! The front nine is straight forward and the back nine is really a challenge with split fairways on several holes. It is interesting and play is a challenge but rewarding.

One funky hole

This is a nice course. Relatively flat and in excellent condition. Pace of play was good, taking less than 4 hours for our 3-some. We didn't wait a lot, but idd on the last several holes. There is a funky hole on the back nine that is a sharp dog leg left across a dry creek. Lots of trees on the left and through the fairway if you hit it too far. Check your yardages and lay up appropriately. The older guys i played with hit 7 irons from the senior tees. I hit 5 wood from the whites and it was too much. Be warned. Rest of the course was very nice.

Played late in day

Good value for after 3pm. Popular place at that time. We were able to get 15 holes in.

Some lower skilled players in front of us but really didn’t wait too much. They knew when to pick up or hustle along.

Top notch conditions

Everything was in great shape. Front nine is all right in front of you while the back takes some strategy. Green’s rolled great!

High Quality Golf

Overall, this was a very enjoyable round of golf. We were a 4-ball and completed the round in 3.25 hours without being rushed and no waiting. The pace of play is very good as many locals play and they all have very good golf etiquette. Checkin attendant was very friendly and made us feel very welcomed to the course. Greens were fast and true and almost everyone fixed their green marks. I would definitely recommend this course.
