Course Highlights
Heritage Palms consistently delivers exceptional conditions with fast, true greens and well-manicured fairways that rival top desert courses. The straightforward layout, friendly staff, and outstanding value make this a course worth adding to any regular rotation.

About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 72
Length 6698 yards
Slope 128
Rating 72.1

The mountains are close enough to touch at this Arthur Hills design. Heritage Palms measures 6,698 yards from the back tees.

Four lakes are featured on the course, which is very green for a desert design. Hills contrast the fairways against the mountains and the desert in the distance, but this is very much a resort type course.

The par 3s are particularly inventive. This isn't one of Hills' tougher courses. It offers average hackers the chance to have a largely anxiety-free round. As long as they don't get too carried away with club selection.

There are a number of dogleg holes that force you to think before firing away. Just hitting as far as you can is an easy path to trouble. It's the shot after the shot you're hitting that must be thought of.

Customer service lacking but course in great shape

Frost delay and was never called. Others in my group were called. Kept letting members who just walked up and wanted to play ahead of us. Course in very good shape just wish I had gotten a discount since I paid for 18 holes and didn’t get to finish.

Excellent course

Had a great time playing this course. Greens were fantastic and fairways were also in excellent condition. Only things I’d recommend is having a cart person and also have quick food to grabs. Amazing time all around.

A+ to the Greenskeeper

This course is in fantastic shape! The Greenskeeper deserves an A+. This course was in much better shape than any of the PGA West courses. Don't miss it.

Must Play

Course conditions were excellent. The greens and fairways are in perfect shape. Lots of room off the tee but approach shots are tricky with bunkering and greens with lots of slope and subtle breaks. The driving range, pro shop and restaurant are up there with any high end golf resort. Will definitely play again.

An Emerald!!

Wow, so green and lush!! Cart path only (which is the norm this week) but a great job on the overseed. Course was in fantastic condition, greens were fast and true. Just need more marshalling to keep the groups moving along.

A Diamond in the Desert

There was absolutely nothing not to love about this course. From the experience of arrival in the parking lot to the completion of the round,everything from the staff and condition of the course is top of the line. I have had a chance to play some of the more well known courses in the Palm Springs, Indian Wells, Laquinta and Palm Desert area and have to rate the Heritage as one one of my top course to suggest to my other golf groups and look forward to playing it again, again and again! I lived/golfed in AZ for the last 25 years and have played most of the top rated courses in that state, this course rivals my favorite courses there. The greens rolled True and the layout of the course has a great balance of challenge and beauty ! Would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys this most challenging, relaxing 4 hours of the game we love to play!!!!!

Amazing Deal

If you are looking for the feel of a private course without paying a ridiculous price this is your place. Course is conditioned like a high level private course, great practice facility. Staff was all nice. Fun layout, pretty wide open but still some challenge. Highly recommend.
