Heritage Palms Golf Club
About
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.

Very golfer friendly - no difficult hazards
Enjoyable day - good pace of play and well organized shotgun start.
First Timer
Great golf course! Reading the greens was probably the most difficult part, a lot of subtile breaks. The greens were also very fast, be careful or you will have a Five footer coming back!
Fun golf at Heritage palms golf course
We had a great afternoon. Play was fast. Course was in great shape.
Great Place
This is an outstanding facility. The practice area is first rate. The course is really cool, I played with a member and he helped guide me around the course. Highly recommend this club. There is no beverage cart and no breakfast. I had a sandwich after the round and it was delicious.
A favorite
It’s not always easy to get a tee time but worth it when we do. Try it you’ll like it!
Speedy
Course conditions are excellent. Very fast greens and roll and don’t bounce! One of our favorites in this area.
Fast greens
The greens are about 11 and faster in some spots... over seeding was a complete success... be back soon
Beautiful course
Played for the first time, very nice condition...they sent us off as a shot gun start...very smart...finished in 4 hours...greens were fast and hard....the fairways were in excellent condition!....not a single brown spot, worn spots, or barren spot on the Entire course!...every area in and around the tee boxes, greens was perfectly trimmed, mowed, and perfectly green!...very wide open course, user friendly.
Best greens in the area!
Played Heritage Plans with two members. They friendly and a treat to play with. Course was in pristine condition. The greens were 11 on the stimp and rolled perfect. Very forgiving and fun course to play. Golfnow rate was great!! Would definitely play again!!
Day at Heritage
Course was very wet from the day before rains but in very good shape greens and fairways. They take very good care of it, and one could tell by the 3 holes we ran into 6 to 7 pieces of heavy grass cutting/manicuring and blowing equipment running around as we hit.
Great for most skill levels
Everyone besides the beginner level can enjoy this course. Forgiveness if you miss the right way, but punishing if you miss on an aggressive line. High quality greens really challenge the short game. Hoping to play here every time I'm in the area.
Must play
If you are ever in the Palm Springs area. Heritage Palms is a must play if you want to play a good track that is always in great shape. One of the best maintained courses in the country let alone the Desert. If you play well you can score well. But don’t let it fool you. It plays longer than it looks. The back tees are a real challenge for even the most skilled golfer. Great track, friendly staff that will make your visit a pleasant experience. Nice bar and grill. Sunday golf and brunch package is a good deal.
Top of list of valley courses
Impeccable quality golf course with fast greens, lush fairways and challenging holes with a mix of variety
of no two holes the same and nicely bunkered and
just enough water hazards but not too many as some courses overdo the water to make them too difficult and boring.
Great condition
Heritage club is always in the best condition. Played here 5 times now and always excellent. Pace of play may vary but you will enjoy unless your looking for PGA style course. Course is for the resort player not low single digit player.
Nice course
Good layout: three holes with water, and wide fairways. Nice practice area with free balls.
Beauty Day for golf
Staff are very good at this club. Despite two shot guns, 0800 and 1230 they were on top of everything.
Course overall in good shape although greens are getting pretty beat up. Not sure if is the number of players going thru or the fact people cannot repair ball marks.
Fairways , rough and t boxes are in very good shape.
The round took a bit longer then previous as over 4 hours but not bad 4 hours 15 minutes.
Immaculate
Played this course 3 times and have been impressed with the absolutely perfect condition. Having played many courses throughout the valley, this stands out by far as the best kept from tee to greens, including thebunkers. Pin placements were a little extreme but the conditions and layout make up for that. .Only issue is pace of play; however, each time was a late tee time so finishing was tough as pace of play was a bit slower than ideal..(4hr 15 is the expected pace). We ran 4hrs 30, not too bad...
Overall, the course is not only immaculate it plays very fair with just the right amount of hazards and trouble to challenge your game with plenty of scoring opportunities. .
Really love this course.
