Two Clubs, One Remarkable Membership. The Clubs of Dove Mountain are made up of The Gallery Golf Club and The Golf Club at Dove Mountain and sit within the beautiful Dove Mountain community, surrounded by the Tortolita Mountains. 

With legendary designers like Jack Nicklaus, John Fought, and Tom Lehman – and a litany of honors, accolades, and high-profile professional events – the 63 holes of golf at The Gallery and Golf Club at Dove Mountain are truly second to none when it comes to total golf experiences in the Desert Southwest. 

Experience what it means to belong to a premier golf club, where Members enjoy unlimited access to 63 holes of PGA Tour-quality golf (home of the WGC-Accenture Match Play on the PGA Tour for 8 years), a Sports Club with a complete offering of fitness and relaxation amenities, multiple dining options, and full-service locker room and clubhouse experiences.

THE GALLERY GOLF CLUB

Find your oasis at The Gallery Golf Club. A true country club setting with active tennis and pickleball leagues, resort-style recreation and olympic-sized lap pool, state-of-the-art gym, and two picturesque golf courses to choose from.

The Gallery’s North Course, designed by John Fought and British Open Champion and 2006 Ryder Cup Captain Tom Lehman, was ranked #1 in Southwest Arizona by Golf Digest and is acknowledged as one of Golfweek’s Top 100 Modern Courses. With its sweeping high Sonoran views in every direction, the nines gracefully meander through two rugged canyons. The result is 18 irresistible holes as enjoyable for the higher handicap golfer as they are challenging for the touring professional.

The South Course wonderfully compliments its older sibling making The Gallery one of the few private clubs in the country featuring two golf courses as highly acclaimed as these. Nominated one of Golf Digest’s 100 Best, John Fought’s solo design differs from The North Course in both terrain and architectural scheme. Its style is in many ways reminiscent of Donald Ross’ Pinehurst #2 with mounded green complexes and expansive fairways.

THE GOLF CLUB AT DOVE MOUNTAIN

The epitome of a True Golf experience. Lose yourself in the challenging, thoughtfully designed courses set amongst the towering saguaros and Tortolita Mountains. Legendary champion Jack Nicklaus took advantage of the high Sonoran Desert setting to integrate strategy, variety and fair shot values into his Signature Design luxury golf course at The Golf Club at Dove Mountain.

Home to the Accenture Match Play from 2009 to 2014, the three 9-hole courses were designed to challenge the world’s top professionals. The distinct courses have numerous awards including rankings in Best New Courses by Golf Magazine and Best Resort Golf Courses by Golfweek. Players can choose their course pairings or opt to play them all.

The 27 holes at Golf Club at Dove Mountain are currently undergoing a $15mm renovation that will make the courses more enjoyable, more playable, and easier to navigate while enjoying the natural beauty of the desertscape. The project scope, being overseen by the Nicklaus Group, is massive and includes the rebuilding of all the greens complexes, the removal and replacement of bunkers throughout, the addition of new tees, and the clearing of in-play desert vegetation. The end result will be a complete revitalization of the three nine-hole tracks, ensuring a higher level of agronomic quality and a more consistent golf experience.
