The Golf Club at Dove Mountain - Tortolita/Wild Burro
Rating Snapshot
About
The desert foothills of the Tortolita Mountain Range provide the stunning backdrop for the three nines designed by Jack Nicklaus at The Golf Club at Dove Mountain. They are played in three different 18-hole combinations, one of them being Tortolita/Wild Burro. The Tortolita nine serves as the back nine for the PGA Tour's Accenture Match Play Championship, but Nicklaus considers Wild Burro to be the best of the three. Playing through canyons and desert washes, the golf course features dramatic elevation changes and stunning views. Tortolita's third hole has the highest elevation at the club while the ninth hole on Wild Burro is the longest finishing hole of any of the nines. The intricately contoured greens and strategic fairway bunkering provide a challenge for even experienced golfers.

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!
