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.

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.

Course is great but…

The course is in great shape after reopening for the season. Played in the afternoon and was able to finish. Due to the just reopening it was cartpath only which we understood. Layout is great and fun and not that long of a course. The staff was great and range is nice. But I do have an issue with the members. We were approached 3 times by members regarding sanding our divots. The first time I have no issues with we forgot out sand bottles and the members were cool. The second and third time I have an issue with. Second time we were approached, they were outside in their backyard and yelled across the fairway to say something. We let them know that we ran out of sand and there’s wasn’t any available on the course for us to refill our bottles. The third time, a member drove their car and parked it in the middle of the cartpath to cross the street essentially blocking us in and said something about the sanding of the divots. At this point our sand ran out 3 holes prior and I let him know. I also told him we would be more than happy to fill out divots but there’s no where to refill our bottles. He shook his head and drove away. All I gotta say is if they wants us to use sand, which is fair, maybe have more sand available to refill our bottles on the course. Also my buddy’s cart only had 1 bottle.. the other one wasn’t even there and there wasn’t a holder for it. This course charges god know how much for people to be a member and charges $130 for a geeen fee and they can’t have better carts and sand in the course..

Friendly and good value

Course was in good shape and well taken care of. Staff were friendly and helpful. Course really needs a beverage cart though or at least the snack shack needs to be open. Good value though and we would come back. Open enough layout to be forgiving , but enough of a challenge to be enjoyable as well.

Lush

The grounds crews due an amazing job keeping all areas of the course in lush condition. Many courses in the valley must be envious of how they are able to maintain their superb quality during the summer months. Pro shop and cart attendant staff are very friendly and accommodating.

Loved it!!

This was a last minute round and I wanted to play somewhere nice and with great quality conditions and this course did NOT disappoint. From the tee boxes to the greens everything was in great condition. Fairways are nice and wide, rough was cut just right as to slow your ball down if you rolled into it but not deep enough to make your shot out to difficult. Bunkers were decent with real sand and for the price and the experience, it was worth every part of $65.00... I would highly recommend this course and I cant wait to come back and play again!! This is not a difficult course and you can score low if you hit your shots smartly and accurately.
