Dayton Valley Golf Club
About
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.

Lots of Water
Tough course & lots of water, if your game is struggling not the best place to play! Great Course will be back for another round soon!!
DVGC
Once again Dayton delivered. Best course for the money!
Very nice GC
I always enjoy playing Dayton Valley GC. Today's round was quite challenging due primarily to strong winds. It's not just that the winds were strong particularly on the back nine, it's that they were variable, It was harder than usual to predict the ball's flight direction. It was definitely a sporty course today.
Beautiful day
The course was great, the pace of play on the back was slow on the back nine.
Course in great condition
Pace of play was really great! We felt like we were the only one playing.. no one behind or in front of us.
Course was in great condition. Lots of watering going on.
Today was windy, however, we knew it was going to be windy.
Tees, Greens, and fairways were in great condition.
Challenging course due to the water/ balls roll into water.
Great day!
Windy but great course
This is one of the Duncan
Courses and is in
Much better shape than Wolf Run. Nice layout and good pace of play.
Winter Golf
The grass is brown though the greens aren’t as green but they roll true as always on this Palmer Course. No matter what the season this course will try every club in your bag and hitting long doesn’t always serve u well here. Accurate and patient golf will prevail. Hit’em straight and replace your divots....
Great Course
This is a great course and place to play. It's a little bit expensive but well worth it. Between the amenities and everything else you can access.
Nice coarse
Enjoyed playing this coarse a lot. Ended up getting stuck behind 3 guys who were more than taking their time. Eventually 2 other groups were stacked up behind us. No Marshall to enforce play. Liked the coarse itself though.
Great layout and excellent condition!
My only suggestions for improvement include:
- better signage to reach the first tee,
- better markings for water hazards,
Great golf experience — look forward to playing again soon!
Love this place!
Always nice to play a quality course like this. Pace was good. Course conditions were very good. Can't beat an Arnold Palmer course for giving you a challenge.
Will be back soon!
