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.

Course in decent shape. Greens are good and roll nicely. For an executive course run by the city and getting lots of play it’s in good shape.

Easy but quick

Course is a par 3 that is in playable shape. Slower greens, some short holes but a nice break on a hot summers day. If you take golf seriously then find another course…everyone else will have a decent time.
