The range and course look out towards the Marina and JLT skyline, giving practice sessions an unusually dramatic backdrop.
The facility includes a driving range and a short par-3 course, so you can work on full shots and short game in one visit.
Unlimited balls are included with range practice according to one review, which can make a longer session worthwhile.
A golf academy is available for beginners who want more guidance than hitting balls independently.
Reviews mention a restaurant and kids play area, useful if not everyone in your group is playing.
Early-morning and evening practice are both mentioned, giving regular golfers more options around the heat and daily schedule.
Confirm pricing. Call and reconfirm the current rate and group arrangement before travelling; one organiser received incorrect phone advice.
Confirm hours. Ask whether the range will close during your visit, especially for a group travelling from outside Dubai.
Use quieter times. Consider an early-morning or evening session, both of which are specifically mentioned as possible practice times.
Check yardages. Treat the range markers as approximate and bring a way to verify distances while practising.
Check par three. Ask about the par-3 course condition before booking, since a past review found it under reconstruction.

A short par-three layout is repeatedly mentioned as a useful addition to range practice.
Foot golf is cited as an alternative activity, with a food-and-drink deal mentioned in the same review.
One visitor reported children riding motorbikes over the green and hills, creating a danger for golfers and causing damage.
A group organiser received incorrect phone pricing, then found the on-site charge was AED 150 per person for 30 minutes on one mat.
The range was reportedly closed for 30 minutes on arrival despite the group having called ahead and travelled from several emirates.
A review says hitting from mats was the only option, which may matter if you prefer practising from grass.
Distance markings have been described as inaccurate, and another golfer said the range needed yardage markers.
These are customer-reported mentions, not a current price list. Prices may have changed.

The Bottom Line
Montgomery Golf Driving Range is a practice-focused golf venue in Emirates Hills, with enough variety to make a visit more than a bucket of balls. Reviews mention the driving range, a short 9-hole par-three course, a Golf Academy for beginners and foot golf, so you can choose between full-swing practice, short-game work or a more casual activity. The setting is a major part of the appeal.
Golfers describe views towards the Marina and JLT skyline, a carefully landscaped environment and a well-maintained course. Early-morning and evening practice are both mentioned, while the restaurant and kids play area make it easier to bring family or a mixed group. There are some practical caveats.
Hitting from mats has been reported, distance markings may not be fully accurate, and an older review found the par-three course under reconstruction. Pricing also needs checking: one group was quoted incorrectly by phone and then asked for AED 150 per person for 30 minutes on a single mat. Confirm both the current rate and any temporary closures before making a long trip.
One recent review also raised a serious safety concern about children riding motorbikes across the green and hills. If that situation is visible during your visit, alert security before starting play.
