Robert Trent Jones II designed the golf course at Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club, creating a championship course to shift gently from open play to intimate foliage along Willow Wash. The golf delivers Southwestern authenticity, with etroglyph-etched boulders marking holes. It differs from the "target" golf courses of Arizona in that it features player-friendly golf, manicuring transition spaces so that golfers face minimal penalty when recovering.

At the Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club, Robert Trent Jones II demands strategic and varied shooting, meaning the round of golf will challenge as well as refresh golfers.

After the round at the Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club, head back to the casual elegance of the clubhouse.

Outstanding.

Lovely layout and well maintained. Not very long so particularly fun for the shorter hitters but with a few holes that require some length. Greens are quick. Outstanding experience

First time playing here!

Overall great. Just a few nit picks and one really! Getting to the next hole was challenging, signage was poor to confusing at times! Tee markers were crooked or misplaced on some holes! Players or maintenance staff? Called to pro-shop to ask about cart time to be back to the shop and never reached the pro-shop, talked to every one in the place but not the pro-shop! Lastly the Really, the greens looked like the face of the moon! Looked as if not one player (ever) repaired their balls marks on the greens. How to enforce? What is the maintenance team (superintendent) doing abort it? Again we enjoyed our round but the experience could have been better.

Pricey

Had a great time. And enjoyed the course. Would come again but not for $240pp. Pricey to say the least. Golfnow pricing made it acceptable. If you have to pay $240 I would search out other deals.
