Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club
Played On 03/19/2018Too many better places to play...and have a good meal before you play
The greens are fast and many had enough issues where I had to move my ball a few feet to the left or right to putt on a decent surface. The pace of play was such that we had to wait 3-5 minutes at every tee. That was fine - we weren't in a hurry - but I would have liked to have seen a marshal at least once during our round.
There are no bathrooms on the front 9, just a few porta potties. Make sure to hold your breath on the way in and out.
Our tee time was about 2:30. On the 3rd hole the food & beverage cart stopped for us. We asked if there were sandwiches but were informed there were only bags of chips. We asked the cart person if she could get more inventory and she seemed annoyed. The cart stopped by again on the 8th hole and, again, just chips available but the operator let us know we could call ahead on the 9th tee and pick up hot dogs and sandwiches at the turn. When we called from the 9th tee (4:45) the person who answered let us know that the kitchen was closed and we were out of luck.
Between the greens, porta potty and food and beverage situation we left after 9 holes.
Our best experience at this course was at the bag drop where the young men loading our golf bags onto golf carts and, later, off our carts were efficient and very personable.
If you don't need to putt, eat, or do #1 or #2 by all means play this course. Otherwise there are just too many better options in the area .

Played On 03/31/2017Greens are concrete
The course has a very nice layout and the staff was a 10.0 regarding their professionalism and helpfulness. I would not play here again because the greens are rock hard. Unless you're a 5 handicap or below and can put significant backspin on all shots to the greens, you will either be rolling balls up onto the green (where that's possible) or hitting nice shots with good loft that land on the green and roll 150 feet. Some people like that, I don't.
