Greens were terrible

The course provided 2 waters per cart and there are no refillable stations. On a day that was very hot, this was really bad. When we commented on our return, they were very dismissive say well you could have asked for more. To whom, no one was on the course. Won’t be playing there again.

Course has gone downhill

We played the course a year ago and it was nice. It’s a good layout, but the greens were half dead, the rough dry, and pace of play slow.

Nice course but lacks some amenities

The course layout is very nice even though it needs a little love. Service was minimal (no ride from parking lot, no drink cart after 2.30pm, no water stations) which in this climate can be dangerous.

I wouldn't play here again.

Brown fairways, greens that were just so so. Not a true palm desert course. If you don't mind a little drive, Eagle Falls in Indio is great. And reasonable..

Enjoyed the course more last year

Great course, but the level of maintenance is down from last year. The greens were in quite rough shape on some holes. Still an enjoyable round and good value.

Great course, some terrible greens and bunkers

Love the design of this course - truth be told I just went back to try to shoot better than 7 on #14.

Sadly the greens are in bad shape, and the bunkers are worse. The sand is more like coarse gravel.

Great range.

Disappointing

Returned to one of our favorite layouts in Palm Springs. Fairways were fine but Bermuda rough was sparse to bare and greens were in horrible shape with little to no grass in spots. Ranger told us the result of a warm winter but everywhere else in the area greens are great. A notification at booking or on website or Golfnow would be nice.

Disorganized staff and painfully slow

Showed up to be told I couldn’t play at my tee time. I had to either go half an hour early which meant no warmup or 45 minutes late which meant I wouldn’t be able to finish the round before sunset.

I chose to go early. Took 2 hours and 40 minutes to play 9 holes.

Greens were all burnt. One of the par 3’s there was a shirtless resident in flip flops driving around in a golf cart at the edge of the water looking for balls. Had to wait on him also. Driving on the tee boxes and greens with his cart. To be clear this person was not golfing. Just trespassing to look for balls

Awful experience. Will never go back!

Disappointing

Played before and enjoyed. Played early afternoon. No rangers and two different singles jumped in front; no cart person after 3:00…94 degrees and no water. Clubhouse closed at 4:00. No access to anything. No club cleaning after round. Never again!
