Dayton Valley Golf Club is an Arnold Palmer Signature design that has been a PGA Tour Qualifier course since 1995, making it the longest standing site in the country. The course is surrounded by the Sierra Nevada Mountains and stretches across the valley below. The rolling, links-style layout features sculpted fairways and large, undulating greens. You may find yourself faced with a tough lie even after a good shot. It's a challenging test with plenty of water and strategically placed bunkers coming into play throughout. Careful shot placement is especially important on the water holes at Dayton Valley G.C. The most difficult hole on the golf course is the par-4 ninth. It's a lengthy dogleg left with water down along the entire left side of the fairway and short and right of the green. On your approach, hitting left of the green you'll find heavy rough or pot bunkers.

Good experience

Jason was very friendly and helpful in the pro shop. The course was fun but challenging. Greens were consistent and fair. Water came into play on about half the holes. A great day of golf. Will play this again!

Heartless Animals

Bar Tender sits with customers rather than tending bar.Food is served cold, only some people wear masks, very dirty facilities.

Employees have Harassed Disabled people and veterans if you can believeit, and turn residents against each other, then get rewarded.

New Management and staff is desperately needed.

Frosty times

Even tho the course had a flash freeze, the staff had informed the players on course updates promptly. Also had the peace of game flowing with minimal back up. Way to go Dayton.

Love Dayton

Dayton played wonderfully for mid march. We went out right before mens club and ended up playing in 3 hours and 15 min.

Overall, fairways were good. Greens rolled nice. And Arnie's course always plays tough. Recommend highly.

blue bird day

What a beautiful day for mid winter golf in the high desert. Playing with friends is always fun. Despite the fact that the course is pretty much brown it played very fairly. Plenty of water to get in your way so have a few extra water balls handy. The greens were rolling great with not much break which was nice. Then need to replace their range mats would be my one suggestion.

Avoid this place

I had to call it quits after 9 holes took me 2 hours 45 min. Too slow for the more accomplished golfer. I will never come back here again, although I only paid $17.50 to play this course. If I had paid more I would have went in and argued. No marshall, no starter just a free for all of your into that then send it!
