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.

Hidden Desert Gem!
I've played all of the top courses in the desert.
However, this was my first time playing Heritage Palms because I thought it was private club. I now know what I've been missing all these years! The course was outstanding, The layout was very much like a country club, with challenging holes and wide fairways. It will permanently be on my list of courses to play whenever I'm in the Palm Springs area.
Great day
First time playing the course...staff friendly...got out early...course in great shape....highly recommend .
only one complaint
first rate people in clubhouse....course conditions for summertime were acceptabe...my only complaint was that twice during my round, homeowners as singles interupted my play with no regard to etiquette..., I guess they just decided to start their round right behind me?...no way they caught me, as I played in about 2&1/2 hours...I suspect they are not supposed to do that?
Overall
Nice driving range and course. Friendly folks. Playable for all levels.
Great course and great value
The condition of the course was great. They had just punched the greens so there was that but they told us in advance. Otherwise the course was a lot of fun and well maintained. Everyone was really friendly and welcoming, we saw few other golfers. Most get their rounds in by 10 when we were just getting started.We’re looking forward to playing again.
Great course and great value
We really enjoyed our round. We had the course practically to ourselves. They had just punched the greens (which they told us about when booking) or I would have given the course conditions stars.
Looking forward to play again.
Pieces play was extremely slow
I typically love this course. I like the layout I like the staff I just like the course. But today is probably the worst experience I’ve ever had. First 91 well. Then when I caught up to the group and corner, took 3 1/2 hours. They were super slow didn’t care about anybody else. There was no one in front of them. And no Marshall to move them along. This really soured me.
Very nice staff
I thought this was a very fair course for average golfers, including women. Challenging yet not so difficult that it is not fun
Fun and Forgiving
If you're looking for a nice course with a nice ease of play, this is a good spot. It doesn't have too many challenging aspects, which is good for a relaxing day on the course. The entire course is lined with homes on both sides throughout its entirety but there is plenty of grass to hit. Not too much water, decent amount of bunkers to make it interesting, and a good length from either the white or gold tees. Couple of tee boxes have a nice mountain view but it's nothing that will take your breath away. I found a "hot deal" on golf now for like $60 in late May, towards the cooler seasons I would pay up to $90 or so - overall I had a great experience, would recommend and likely will be back.
Excellence
From conditions to layout to pace of play , this is a great corse. Great scenery to boot. A desert gem.
