Golf courses in Cave Creek, AZ.

Cave Creek, AZ

Dove Valley Ranch Golf Club sits in the high Sonoran Desert north of Phoenix in Cave Creek, Arizona. The course was designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. and opened in 1998 as the centerpiece of the Dove Valley Ranch community. The layout moves between open desert stretches and pockets of denser vegetation along Willow Wash, with petroglyph-marked boulders worked into several holes. Generous fairways and forgiving transition areas make it more playable than many of the region's tighter target-style desert courses. The course is open daily to the public and plays to a par of 72 at just over 7,000 yards from the back tees. Amenities include a clubhouse with pro shop and a bar and lounge.
