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.

Fun short course and great value for the money
Just played this course for the second time and it’s really a lot of fun. Great place to work on your short game and good pace of play. The only thing that I didn’t like is that I couldn’t register my score for my
GHIN.
