The Golf Club at Dove Mountain - Saguaro/Tortolita

About
The Golf Club at Dove Mountain features 27 challenging holes that are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Saguaro/Tortolita golf course is naturally named after its beautiful landscape of centuries-old Saguaro cacti nestled at the base of the Tortolita Mountain Range. The golf course meanders though desert washes covered in native flora and fauna. There are large greens that feature plenty of movement. The par-3 third hole on the Tortolita nine has the highest elevation of any at the golf club. There are also strategically placed fairway bunkers and a few forced carries.

Sand Traps & Holes!!!
I love playing challenging courses. This was the most challenging I've ever played. Sand traps in the middle of fairways & hole placements was on top of a ice cream cone!!! This track HAS to be redone just a bit to be more user friendly. I was told that the 'pros' don't like the layout. I'll go back if changes are made. I played Copper tees & scrambled my ash off for a 96.
1. Choose the right tees by your handicap.. 2 Bring your A game . 3. Difficult greens . Friendly staff.
A thinking-man’s course
It is a challenging course that requires the player to review each fairway before Tee-off to stay out of trouble.
Always a pretty site to spend a few hours
Course was in relatively nice condition for transition time of turf. Disappointed that I wasn't told the Wild Burro greens had recently been aerated.
Pace of play was good until last couple holes, pleasant way to spend an afternoon in a beautiful spot.
Poor Greens
Greens had just been punched so they were not in good shape. Of course they don't mention that when you check in or make your tee time. Front 9 had no water at all on the course and no cart service. Did 2 get one bottle of water each in a cooler with no ice. Pretty rough since it was in the mid 90's. Played here before and it was great but there are far better courses to play for the money they charge. Layout is great but this place has gone downhill fast. Save your money and play someplace else.
Always FUN !
Great course, great staff. Very professional !! Love the outside staff too ! Always taking great care of us. The scenery is unbeatable, and the wildlife is amazing !!!
Great staff
The starter was very accommodating and professional!
Course was in top shape and pace was excellent!
Great course
Well managed course in every aspect! Beautiful holes with amazing views
Disappointed
For $220 it ain’t worth it. Fairways were average at best ,bunkers were like concrete in most areas and lots of the greens had dead spots everywhere. This was once a fantastic track all around just not sure what has happened to it.
Course in poor condition.
It’s a great layout but the course has a lot of fungus or something on the fairways and greens. Needs aeration in many places. Was not a great value for the price paid. Staffing is excellent however.
Disappointed with greens
We were looking forward to our round but from the first green on Saguaro we soon questioned our decision to travel the hour 30 from the east valley. They were slow, hard to hold, patchy and rolled inconsistently. All greens on Saguaro were the same. This improved when we played Wild Burro for the back nine. All in all, conditions were good but not the championship course we played several years ago.
