The Golf Club at Dove Mountain - Wild Burro/Saguaro
Rating Snapshot
About
Nestled in the desert foothills of the Tortolita Mountain Range, the 27 holes at The Golf Club at Dove Mountain feature dramatic elevation changes and stunning views. The three nines were all designed by Jack Nicklaus and are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The Wild Burro/Saguaro golf course combines Nicklaus' favorite nine, Wild Burro, with the front nine of the Accenture Match Play Championship. The golf course features intricately contoured greens and carefully placed fairway bunkers. The course plays through canyons and desert washes covered in centuries-old Saguaro cacti. The third, fourth and fifth holes on the Wild Burro nine are notably challenging with the third featuring an "island green" standing amidst sand and cacti.

Great Desert Course!
Tough course in good shape. Greens are fast. Will be back when less windy.
Great course
The course was in great shape, greens were great, fast and true.
Too big for its britches
I had played this course when the WGC match play was still being held at the course. At that time the course conditions were fantastic. I had a friend from out of town visit and he wanted to play a “premium “ course. Dove Mountain is charging a high rate but is showing a lack of investment in the course. The most obvious was lack of sand in green side bunkers, and the material that was there was very rocky!!
If this course was $100 during season, I would recommend it, but at almost twice that... not so much!
Awesome Course
One of the best courses I ever played. Bring your ‘A’ game!!
Great layout, slow pace of play
Excellent course with a challenging layout. Knew there were issues at start due to no golf carts available. Started late and pace was bad. 5 hour round. Would play again.
Enjoyed our day at Dove Mountain
Arrived at 11 am to chilly and windy conditions but that did not keep us from enjoying the round. Lots of sand everywhere with multiple forced carries. The greens had a lot of undulations but that just added to the challenge. Course is in wonderful condition and we finished in less than four hours. When we come back we just need to remember it is 8 degrees cooler here than in Phoenix.
Always interesting!
Have played here often over the past few years and always find ways to add value to my game. Whether working on my wedge shots by not hitting driver and laying up, to trying to hit every green in regulation, you can find that all on this course. It challenges you.
Excellent layout and scenery is fantastic. The course was in great condition other than green side bunkers. They were hard with very shallow sand.

Really enjoyed this challenging and beautiful course! Best conditions I’ve played so far! Keenan in the Pro Shop was very helpful/friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed the day!
