Mission Hills - Gary Player Course

One of my favorites. If not for the snarky dreadlocked starter it was perfect.

Excellent layout. Super slow round with the foursome ahead at a turtle pace. We opted to play the front nine twice in order to finish.

Price to value not there or we got way better value on the other places we booked

Had a overall great time playing Mission Hills for the first time. Challenging holes, beautiful backdrops. Starter (originally from Iowa) super friendly and helpful! Sorry, forgot his name. Pace of play was good. Our group caught a slower 3 some and slowed it a bit, but overall good. Fairways and greens were really good shape. We will return for sure.

Very average overpriced golf course at best. Fairways were s very skimpy overseed. Rough did not exist as it was mostly dirt and sand. Pro-shop personnel were friendly, stater was very good but the snack bar was very crass as if she was doing us a favor by being there. I attempted to buy a beer at the turn, rang the little bell and she just walked out and away.

This course should not be priced above $50 in the condition it was in.

If a course is built, it should be played. If you don't like it don't go back. I nor my friends will not be back.

Our foursome played the course in a little over 4 hours, finishing just before 5:30. Good pace and tempo. We were neither held up or pushed by other groups.

The course is in great shape and a pleasure to play.

The staff is friendly and helpful.

Everything here is as it should be. There are no surprises. I will be back for more.

Greens a bit slow but consistent. Fairways in very good shape. Tee boxes quite beat up. Rough not good at all with lots and lots of bare dirt. Bunkers were okay for the most part but some fairway bunkers need some maintenance. Pace was slow but okay. No Marshalls in sight all day. Overall a decent course to play and considering what the prices are in the area now, if you can get it for $100 or less, it is worth playing.

Now that Troon is no longer managing the course, it appears to be better run and in better shape. Kudos to JCGolf for saving this property.

Enjoyed chatting with the ladies in the pro shop, as well as the guys out by the starting area and by the bag drop - everyone was very personable. I see the price has gone up a bit, but thought it was fair for Palm Springs in the winter. I think I'll come back later this year and see if it is still in fine shape.

The course was in very poor condition. Fairways had a very skimpy overseed. Greens were very good but so hard you couldn't hold a sand wedge. Off the fairways was basically nothing but dirt. A fair price might be around $50 not $150. People in the snack bar were rude. The starter was very polite and helpful. These were the worse conditions I've ever played in the desert during my 30 years of playing in the desert/

I will not be back!
