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.

Always in great shape
Nice course with interesting holes. Sometimes hard to get a tee time due to booking restrictions but well worth the effort.
Heritage Palms
Great practice facilities prior to playing a beautiful course. Will try to play it again
The Greens, The Greens, The Greens
Absolutely pristine conditioning on the entire course. I've played this course numerous times in the past. Never seen it in better shape. The greens were as good as any in the valley! Perfect is the only way to describe them. Our group had nine birdies yesterday.
The fairways were great and the flowers and landscaping was just outstanding. We all commented on how enjoyable the pace of play was and how great the entire course was presented.
Beautiful course; great value
Heritage Palms is in excellent condition and provides a fair challenge to golfers of all levels. Driving areas are fairly wide, but the greens are typically raised and surrounded by traps. I played in a shotgun event and the pace of play was surprisingly good. The format gave me an opportunity to meet some nice folks from Canada and Texas. Of the 6 courses I've played thus far in the Palm Springs area (including TPC Stadium and La Quinta Resort Mountain course) I would rate Heritage Palms as the best value and course I would want to play again.
Good golf course
Always enjoyable and in good shape. Lots of room and a good variety of holes to suit most everyone.
Great shape for this time of year
Very helpful staff and course was in great condition. Only problem I noticed was very few course distance markers. Since I didn't have have my gps I was always hunting for yardage markers and not finding many.
Overall, very nice layout and in great shape.
fun layout for a retirement resort course.
Played our round in 3 hours! Great layout with challenging approach shots and fair landing zones off the tee boxes. Through a housing tract but still maintains a resort feel.
The course is maintained and in good condition.
I played in less than 3 hours. Although, the temp was 105' I moved at a very fast pace. The fairways were maintained. The greens had been punched and sanded so putting was not great. Still for the money I had fun , the course was empty, got to work on my game and only lost one ball.
After reading the hype, disappointed
The welcome was a little off handed and had to wait a long time for a cart. The faiirways were in reasonable shape for the most part but the greens were bumpy and a little burnt. I am sure in the less heat season it would be good. I think the layout is mediocre and there are better value courses within minutes. A shame as I was looking forward to this track, maybe skip it till a shoulder season visit.
One of the very BEST Palm Desert courses !
I had never played Heritage Palms before, am very glad I did ! The course is in AMAZING shape, and the staff is SUPER friendly. They have a 'combo' set of tees, perfect for a mid handicapper. They do not list discount tee times on Golf Now often, when they do I suggest you snap them up !
A Great Day At Heritage Palms
Nancy, one of the professionals, was delightful in welcoming us. The fairways and greens were in superb condition. Few divots in the fairway and the greens were running at a true 10, a joy to play somewhere you don't have to bang your putter. The temperature was 102 which made for a perfect golf day.
Great deal, good / excellent course!
From the parking lot upon arrival to the moment I left, this place was a pleasure! GREAT STAFF, NICE PRO-SHOP, very complete practice facilities & CHALLENGING, FUN, PRETTY GOLF COURSE! Can't wait to go back soon! Tee to Green in great shape, GREENS WERE NOT PRETTY, BUT THEY WERE FAST (10.5 ) HELD MOST IRON SHOTS & ROLLED VERY TRUE...!
classic arthur hills design
shotgun start...was positioned well for a nice pace of play...greens were fairly quick, less than perfect, but very playable....fairways were the best I've seen at that place over the years....plentiful drinking water...cart guys were very accommodating.....this arthur hills design will get a lot of play by me this summer....golfnow is the greatest!!
Excellent track with true fast greens
Well worth the visit. Putting was a real challenge on these fast greens. Went for a shot gun start and it was like we had the course to ourselves. Fastest 18 I've played in a long time. Great staff too.
Course is in great shape!
We were recommended to play this course because of the greens. We heard they were perfect and they were. The entire course from range to greens was perfect. This course is exactly what you are looking for if you don't want to pay a lot, want great conditions and and overall not to difficult and relaxing round.
Fantastic
Hi
We had played this course before and had liked it but this year it's better
green's are fast
the course is beautiful clean
The range has lot's of place andgolf balls
At the pro shop they were verry nice
And also the man that cleaned our golf clubs made a great job
All in all a great day
Great track, even better condition!
What a find this place was! Two practice putting greens, a chipping area, big range with LUSH GRASS and new balls. Staff super friendly. The course was in tournament shape, I never saw a divot in the fairway. The greens the day I played were posted at 12 on the Stimp and rolled every bit as good as those at Bighorn, if not better. A really fun Arthur Hills course that lets you hit the ball off the tee though not overly long. The par 3's are excellent. A nice patio overlooking the course for a couple of cold ones as the sun sank over the San Jacintos with some very nice playing partners made for a perfect day. I might join the place, its that good.
Will play again.
Course was in great condition, greens super fast. Only complaint is pace of play. It appears they put too many groups out in shotgun start so it is difficult to finish before dark.
