Overpriced for the experience.

Have played many courses in the Palm Springs area and personally we all thought it was overpriced for the experience. Better values are available.

Greens extremely fast, probably cut low due to early heat wave in April.

It is one of my favorite public courses in the Desert, not only because of the beautiful scenery on the back 9. To me, it is a must playing this course.

Beautiful course. Challenging for a higher handicap but very workable. I have a 26 and loved every hole. It was in great shape and there was plenty of spacing between groups. Super staff.

Very enjoyable round of Golf

This was just a fun course to play - well conditioned, fabulous scenery, enough challenge and variety to make it interesting, nice warm up facilities, friendly staff, overall a great experience. Highly recommend it.

My only complaint would be the slow greens - that's probably personal preference but I'm used to faster greens. They're in great condition and roll true - just expected them to be faster pace for a course of this quality.
