About

Holes 9

Style Executive

Par 31

Length 2095 yards

Slope 91

Rating 29.6

Desert Mirage Golf Course offers a public, nine-hole course and a fully stocked pro shop. The course has a traditional design but that does not mean it is boring. It is perfect for squeezing in a quick game or for beginners and kids. The course is relatively flat, but there are some hills on the course that can affect shots. The greens are medium sized with some slight undulation and the generous fairways are wide open. There are also water hazards and bunkers that come into play on a few of the holes. Desert Mirage Golf Course's signature hole is the par-4 ninth. It requires a tee shot over a lake to an island green.

It is what it is

First there was check in. The lady at the counter was exceptional!!! She made a point to locate everything for us and answer all questions with a smile.

Course. Not bad for a little value course tucked in to a neighborhood. Chipping/pitching Area is way over grown and the cart path is treacherous. That said, the course is in decent shape.

Overall…definitely will play again.

Fine

It’s a nice course if you’re in the area. It was about 1 hour round trip for me. I don’t think the course is worth the drive. Had to wait at every hole. Small lines formed but was still able to get through 9 holes in a little over 2 hours.

Fun, Friendly, Affordable

Desert Mirage Golf Course provides a fun, friendly, and affordable place to get together with friends or family. The course is an executive 9-hole course, just right for a quick game of golf. Or play it twice from different tees for a different challenge. The staff is friendly. The on-site cafe provides great food. Management continues to work hard to make improvements…even when weather is a challenge. The course offers a number of ways to save money via memberships or play cards. All in all, it is a great place to call my home course.
