Excellent condition - not too hard

I was pleasantly surprised yesterday at this course. I played the resort course which is much much nicer than their other course.

Most importantly the course was in top notch condition for a public course. Fairways and rough were perfect. The greens were also perfect. Maybe a bit slow as I played at the end of the day - my only complaint might be the bunkers, could use a little more sand.

Nice layout. Par 3 are very nice. Nothing too hard. Quite fair overall. Will definitely go back

Palm Springs Jewel

Generous fairways and challenging greens make it a worthy adventure, always with the mountain scape to reflect on between shots.

I liked it but.

As on gets older 5700 or 5850 gets to be a comfort level. That tee box didn’t exist. 380 to over 400 plus par 4’s. no thanks. Nice course I probably should have split the card. Didn’t know. I would play it again.

Nice Track but.

I really liked this course but between yellow and red was a bit much. I’m no longer a long hitter and I found yellow too long and red to short. I liked the course but didn’t like the length. Too much Driver 3 wood or Driver Hybrid. Some par 4’s couldn’t reach the green. Course conditions great. Value for money great.

Just fine

Felt like a classic Palm Springs course. Have to imagine this used to be a private course because of how small the greens were. Fairways were in good condition. Pace of play was decent.

Disappointed at A course with Arnold Palmers name on it

I played this course twice 10 years ago. Not a a dime has been spent in improvement, and cheap neglect is abusing from tee box to greens. Very disappointed

Decent course, fast greens, nice far away views

Greens, bunkers, fairways in great shape for the most part. Tee boxes much less so. Greens fast and there were some challenging hole locations. Course layout fairly simple. Course-side restrooms were all locked, inexplicably. Lots of nice views of the mountains, but the homes bordering the course not so much (sorry). Decent course, a little pricey for the course layout, but it is in Palm Springs. I had a great time though, and would play it again.
