slow play 5 hours and no help from rangers.

The course itself is ok, too many coots and coot poop but otherwise ok conditions. Nearly every green is elevated making approach shots tough for oldsters.

Big complaint us the slow play. We began at 8:30 and finally pulled in to the cart return at 1:20. We saw two rangers talking about slow play but did nothing about it.

Great Course … Excellent Value

We got a great Hot Deal from GolfNow for our booking, so the value was excellent. Even the regular rate would have put this course high on my list of good value golf courses in the area. The greens were firm and fast, but well maintained and playable. The fairways were in good shape and wide enough to manage most off-centre drives. And, the layout was excellent … with a good mixture of hole lengths and features. A few of the holes had excellent views … and overall a very pleasant experience!

On the negative side: there was a homeless camp adjacent to the course, with a few extra people walking or biking along the course. Also, in general, the rough got real rough real quick … sometimes not playable. And, the 9th hole does not return to the clubhouse … so make sure you pack ample food and drink for the entire 18 holes.

Overall, a great course with enough challenge, features, and different layouts to satisfy most golfers. Be prepared for the full 18 holes, and you will enjoy your day golfing at Tahquitz Creek - Resort Course!

Good course

The course was in excellent shape. The greens were fairly quick,and rolling true. Fairways were in good shape and wide enough for you to miss a little, but still recover from errant shots. Starts out easy, with a few easier holes, but there were plenty of challenging holes to keep you focused. Pace of play was excellent, until the 13th hole, when things got backed up for no apparent reason. It did finish decently,at just over 4 hours.Can’t complain compared to some other courses in the area. Overall, great round of golf, with plenty of challenging, and some easier holes. Would recommend the resort course to anyone.Staff were friendly and knowledgeable.

Nice course - good value for money

This course was a pleasant surprise. All was good (except for a hitch at the start, where someone tried to take my 1pm cart and the starter tried to tell me I did not have a 1pm time). I had the time, the people in the cart getting ready were the ones in the wrong. Their name did not match, but they were all set to go.

The course itself was fun and in fine shape. A bit slow - there were 3 groups in front of us that were playing a tournament amongst themselves - and were very slow. No marshall on the course to tell them to be considerate of others. We got all 18 in, but the last hole was getting quite dark and we started at 1 - should of had plenty of time.

Sling time in the desert

What a gorgeous golf course! Long par fives, water on the par threes and tremendous vistas all over. Fairways are in great condition and so were the greens. Definitely worth the time and money to play this gem!

Stupid slow

Greens need some work. People need to repair ball marks. Otherwise a nice course. Finished in the dark because they squeezed a group in that was late. Really slowed things down. 3 groups on par 3s. Stupid.

This course has unique features

For being in the prime season for the desert courses the greens are 80%

little disappointed. The fairway and course condition are extremely manicured.

Nice Day Out

Played on 2/10/24. Fairways in great shape. Greens fair. 2-3 really picturesque holes. Grass driving has no grass left where stalls were set up. Friendly staff. Course layout is out and back so no chance for food at the turn. Large population of homeless camping in adjacent desert so on course bathrooms are locked up. Some holes adjacent to public walking path. On site restaurant is casual but food was good. No GPS in carts. Some holes had surprise water hazards that weren't visible. Good pace of play.

Timing

If they are going to offer later tee times they need to keep the rest rooms open until guests are done. They did reluctantly open them for us but pretty grouchy about it.

Not in as good of shape as in past years.

Beautiful scenery. Course condition isn’t as good as in past years. The driving range hitting area is in awful condition. It used to be one of the most reasonably priced courses but no longer. We used to play it several times on a trip. Once is enough now.
