Nice course
It’s a very pretty course in good condition. Pace of play was OK.
The only downside was that the greens were really slow - shockingly slow.

Incredible layout
Not a stroll through the park. Dye created a magnificent track built within an amazing view of the surrounding landscape. The course was designed to be a challenge but it still was but a joy to behold and to play. It’s on the pricey side but if you’re looking for a golf “experience” this is one course you should not miss when in the Palm Springs/Palm Desert area.

Won't be back
None of our group will return. For the price you pay, it is simply no where worth the experience. Just felt like a Disneyland---pack us all through and take as much money for as little return as possible. Long queue at bag drop off; check in was just wanting our dough with little interest in us having a great day. Drove over to the range to find no spots open, many slots with no balls, and several people waiting. Starter was nice enough--but never saw one person out on the course to move anything along--not one. Was a slog.
Far more interesting courses in the valley for much greater valley. Really felt like a waste of money.

Beautiful But Hard
This course was beautiful, but way to hard for a 20 handicap. Everything is undulating and you rarely have a flat shot. The newish greens are also hard, so tough to stop the ball. All that said, the course is gorgeous and the staff is great!

Pristine conditions
Not a blade of brown grass on the course. Beautiful mountain setting, beautiful conditions. Greens challenging but not frustrating as on some tough courses. Hardpack sand in the bunkers was the only thing I thought could be improved.

It would be easier if they had a cart signs by the greens.
Couple holes we were about 50 -70 yards out and the alarms were going off too close???

Worth a look
Course was challenging and in good shape. Mountain views are beautiful. Saw a red tail hawk land 10 yds from a green I was putting on. Back nine pace of play was much slower. B
