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.

Heritage Palms
we have been staying in Indio and played 7 different courses, this was our groups favorite. in great condition, wide fairways with some run, greens where great, speed of play was good, weather was perfect. lunch afterward just topped the day.
Excellent condition and layout.
Played with 3 locals in a shotgun start. Never had to wait and no one waited behind. Course played very fair.
Awesome
Superintendent does a great job! Pro Staff was very polite. Greens are right up there with the big money clubs around the desert. Fun course. Pace of play is under 4 hours.
course set up top ten
I'm coming back. Everything from cart people to bar tender was perfect. The pro shop had a very nice collection of items. The staff were knowledgeable and listen to questions. Last, the course was great, set up of course was great and traps were top ten with good sand. I'm a single digit, this was fun and a top ten day.
Don't miss out!
I played this course because of the reviews. Great layout, fun and challenging. Greens rolled at a 12 and were smooth and true. Go play, you'll be glad you did!
Heritage Palms
We played at 1:00. Worried it would be too hot but lots of shade and shade is well placed at the tee boxes. We played in under three hours
Excellent Condition Very Nice Course
We have played this course for years and always enjoy our time there. Course is in excellent condition and the greens are always fast and true. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Heritage Palms
Good course. Pretty scenery. Greens very fast. Took some time to adjust.
One of my very favorite courses
Love it! One of the best courses in the valley! Great staff and an awesome brunch on Sundays!
Great course
Course was in great shape . Was a little pushed because it was a shotgun start and we had two groups starting on our tee box ,but was okay in all .Greens are lighting fast . Will play it again when we can find it at a good price .
Very golfer friendly
Very well maintained lush and green, Best greens in the valley Tee shots very generous landing areas
A Must Play!
Beautiful course that is well manicured and player friendly. Maybe the best greens I've putted on in the desert.
Fast Greens
The course was green (even the rough) and in good shape. The greens were pretty fast ( claimed to be 11 on stimp meter) but people just seem to have trouble fixing thier ball marks. I especially enjoyed the complimentary driving range for warm up. It was a perfect course for my wife and I as it was not difficult but presented itself nicely. I will definitely try to play here again.
Immaculate conditions
My wife and I spend the winter months in La Quinta each year and have always tried to play Heritage Palms a couple of times during our stay. It is sometimes difficult to book a tee time because of popularity the course. They often run shotguns throughout the week so there are chances to get a tee time. The average round usually takes 4 hrs and 15 minutes but it can play longer. The course conditions have always been immaculate; from tee to green the conditions are some of the nicest. The greens run pretty fast but are fair so practice your putting on the practice green. The fairways are generous and there are no "trick" holes, all hazards are visible so the first timer to the course will not be surprised by blind water or bunker hazards. Low to mid handicap players will be equally pleased with the course as there are many tee box choices and combo tee boxes to fit your game. They have an outstanding practice facility with two putting greens and a really nice driving range to get your game ready before your round. The staff at Heritage Palms are top notch so you will be treated well. I highly recommend the course.
Fair, Forgiving and in Great Condition
I found Heritage Palms to be a fun course to play. Fairways are wide and homes don't really come into play. The fairways were pristine and the ball sat up nicely on the lush turf. The greens ran true and fast. They were running at 11 on the stimp. We played 18 holes in 4 hours and the pace of play was good. We were a twosome and we're waiting on most shots for the group in front.
On the 7th hole a par 3, we joined up with a twosome playing behind us and after that we never had to wait to hit our next shots. Things moved along well after that and we had a great time. I would definitely play Heritage Palms again.
Course in great condition and I love their greens
This was the second time I played Heritage Palms and both times have been a very enjoyable experience.
They had a frost delay in the morning so ended up doing a 10am shotgun start (originally booked an 8am start) and the pro shop called me around 7am to inform me which I appreciated as I didn't drive there first to find out. Because of shotgun start the pace of play was a bit slower than I would like but still was quite reasonable.
Course was in excellent condition (10/10) and their greens were great, running a 10 on the stimp.
My one gripe with this course is that they don't have any kind of food service at the turn, just a vending machine, so starting at 10am I was extremely hungry by the end of the round around 2:30.
Would recommend this course.
Very professional staff
I will return. Course was in terrific shape... Very challenging ... staff was so polite
Top Notch
Well worth the drive from downtown Palm Springs, course conitions were perfect, lush green fairways, fast true greens, wicked fast round under four hours and amazing panoramic views
Awesome!!!
Fantastic conditioned golf course! Some of the best greens in the valley!!!
