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.

9 Holes
Great course. As a beginner, I liked it because it had a few par 4s and the fair ways were. Ice and the greens were kept up.

if you have no other option
I didn't have another option and wanted to get quick 9 in. Best part was couple I played with. There is a nice practice area and that is really what this is a practice course. Avoid if you are expecting a fun layout. Nice enough, and ok but if you have other options, take it

Staff is challenging, course is not.
About what you'd expect from a neighborhood 9 hole. Conditions were decent and pace of play is slow due in great part to skill level of majority of players. This is not a knock. This is where beginners SHOULD play.
What I find confusing is a consistent attitude from course staff. As often as not, they are rude, condescending and act like it's inconvenient for them to be there. I am not sure if they had similar issues in their career at NASA and launching space shuttles, but this is a golf course... and not a significant one for that matter.
I have played here a dozen times or so and easily half the time staff has been uncooperative and argumentative in checking in and starting.
Playing golf is ideally designed to relieve stress, not induce it. I am not sure if there is a new inexperienced owner or manager, but when the attitude is pervasive it suggests the boss is supporting this unprofessional attitude.
All things considered I typically enjoy playing here once clear of the 'pro' shop. I hate to think I will avoid this course, which is a great way to spend an afternoon, because I don't want to run the gauntlet to get past the staff.
We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. We are going to pass on your feedback to the teams in charge so they can work to make changes. Thanks for visiting Desert Mirage Golf Course. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.

Would love to actually golf at my reservation time
I get it gets busy but the past 5 times I’ve been there I’ve had to wait 30 minutes past my reservation. Can you guys actually respect reservations and use a starter? Just allowing people to go up to the tee with no announcement is pretty annoying. The young dude there atleast does that, the girl can’t be bothered to use the mic. Just could be such a nice practice place but the backups make it not worth it.

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.

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.
