About
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.

Acts like a $200 private course
My wife and I had previously played a round here about 2 months ago. Everything was fine besides the insane amount of people and how slow the pace was, which is to be expected on a cheap, public course.
Fast forward to Saturday. My friend and I along with both of our wives head to play a round. Spent the full price, hit range balls for almost an hour then I get called to the clubhouse as we're heading to tee off.
I'm told in no way shape or fashion can my wife or his wife golf without each having their own set of clubs? My friends don't golf, I had my clubs and my wife's.
The manager wouldn't come speak to me as I watched multiple other people pull off with two people and one set of clubs.
Why can someone pay $10 to be a spectator but when you pay the full round price, they can't golf unless each has a set of clubs? You lost me as a customer based on the principle.

Hi, Doug. We would love to hear more about your 4-star experience on our course. Please tell us what we can do to earn that last star, and thanks for golfing at Desert Mirage Golf Course!
Great course.
Desert Mirage is a great course. Especially so if you are learning or bring someone along that is learning. I have golfed here with my 19-yo daughter a few times and it is a lot of fun. Not too hard, but it has enough hazards to be a real course.
Masks are not required on the course. We had just forgotten to take ours off after leaving the clubhouse.
Club house has plenty of water, soda, energy drinks, and beer.
Walking was just under 2 miles.
Jason, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Desert Mirage Golf Course.
We're glad you enjoyed your 5-star experience with us. Please comment or reach out to our team in the golf shop to let us know more about your round!
Amazing!!!
Best value for the money! Used every club in my bag! From driver to my A wedge. This is my fav course so far! Greens give a challenge to even the best of players! Can’t beat the price for this course. Took me less than 90 mins to play 9 holes! I 100% will be back!
Wow, we are so happy you enjoyed your round! Thank you for reviewing and rating the course 5 stars. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

Just Ok
My wife is just getting off shoulder surgery so I took her here to play her first nine holes in a year. It was perfect for her and we had good time. Course was in ok shape with the greens be the best part.

Great value for the money
There’s no better course for under $30. It is well maintained in comparison to others in the area. Nice pace and challenging enough to play more than once.

Good course.
Great short course. This day they were behind on times so we started 30 minutes late. Play was slow. Waiting. But it is a Sunday.
Course was in good condition but that is just it. Good.
Overall and easy learning course for my 13 year old.
Thank you for your review! We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Desert Mirage Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Best for my needs
This was my first time here. I thought it would be a great place to introduce my daughter to the game of golf because it was a short par 9 course, had protective barrier making it safer for new players to hit balls and not worry about hitting people or property. She had a blast.

Best Value in the valley.
Paid about $20 for 9 holes , this is a great value for the course. It was challenging enough for an experienced player but still a great course for a beginner. This course was not intimidating and easy to play.
Thank you for your review! We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Desert Mirage Golf Course. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Close right at 5!
First time playing here. I booked at 3:30 and they were asking us to take back the carts at 4:30. Was behind several groups so I didn’t get to finish my round. I get you are trying to close at 5 but at least let me finish my round or stop booked at 2:30-3:00
We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us, however, we're very sorry to hear about your first experience with us as this is by no means the standard we aim to achieve. We apologize for any delay of play in your round from being behind other groups on the course, but we appreciate your understanding with later tee times as our staff needs to enforce our cart policy & hours at the end of the day. However, your feedback is important to us so we can better address these concerns moving forward and strive to provide a better experience for our golfers. If you would like to discuss anything further, please feel free to reach out to our golf shop staff directly. We hope we can welcome you back for a better round soon!
