Desert Falls Country Club

I enjoyed the course. It was a good value, some interesting holes, wide fairways and good pace of play. The greens were good but somewhat slow. Staff were friendly.

For the price - Desert Falls is a decent course in good condition - conveniently located.

Where should I start?

Bag drop says to call them and they will up you and your bags. No phone in the cradle.

No starter, no ranger, no help with clubs.

After the 3rd hole we came upon a group in front of us.

This group was so slow….we waited on every shot while they tinkered around on every hole, posing for selfies, etc

Turns out it was 4 women and a guy.

After 9 holes in 102 heat, I found the women and asked if they were continuing in.

They said no and asked why I was asking.

I told them how we waited on every shot. They were clueless and then told me the 4 of them were getting a lesson from the club pro.

That guy should have known better than to hold us up while he guided them around.

We were so frustrated that we decided to give up on this place after 12 holes.

Golf Now should not promote this and should give us our money back back.

This is a really good layout with the greens being somewhat unfair in some places due to the slopes. They keep the greens very slow to be able to play on the slopes. Fairways were like first cut of rough everywhere else in the world. Very disappointing to play bumpy greens, and no fairway cut to hit out of. I have played here quite a few times over the years but I will probably not go back if they aren’t going to mow the grass.

This was a very disappointing course to play. A very conspiring clubhouse experience tied with unpleasant staff in the pro shop was just the starter for our round. Add in a very poorly maintained golf course made for a poor value for the money we paid. I would not play this course again.

We got an early tee time and our for some was finished unless than 4 hours. We have played there twice and it’s a nice course and good value for the money. We will be back!

We’ve played Desert Falls numerous times over the years and enjoyed our experience, however this time was disappointing.

Check-in was fine however the employee in the pro shop couldn’t have been more disinterested. Didn’t look at us, rattled off relevant information and that was it. Maybe he was having a bad day but his social skills were lacking.

No starter, no marshalls, no beverage cart, just go.

The fairways weren’t mowed, the first cut of rough was tall and thick which made finding your ball, even a couple of feet into it challenging and frustrating.

The snack bar closed at noon, which makes no sense, so you have to go to the bar to get anything to eat or drink. The attendant in the bar was great but the fact that you just couldn’t make the turn and go was irritating. We won’t be back…sorry, but there are plenty of other good courses in the valley to choose from.

The course has a great layout and property. They need to spend some money to maintain the fairways greens and Tee boxes properly. It's a very shaggy course but could be so much better.

Decent value for the area at $135. I've played here several times in years past & you can really feel the cost-cutting with each year. "Furry" greens might be from the hot weather, but tee boxes too overgrown. No clubhouse foodservice, no on-course cart person, & one water cooler for 18 holes in 100+ degree weather is not real helpful. The "club cleaner", however, was right there on the 18th green to get paid!

Desert Falls CC in Palm Desert is very nice course. It is a great layout with a good mix of challenging hole design unfortunately the day we played it was 105 degrees in March. I think due to the heat the course wasn’t maintained to its usual manicured standards.

Course in Great Shape, staff very Friendly and Helpful

Overall this was a good experience.!

I would have liked a marshal on first tee. Also on the course.
