Good value for your money

Re-seeding had just finished a few days before we played the course, and we were able to drive on the course but stay off the fairway itself. Which was a big help.

The grass was a little thick. The greens were a little slow, but an excellent condition.

I will definitely be back

Not as good as it used to be

Course was heading into overseeding, but clearly has not been well maintained. Much of the area in the rough was either weedy or had no grass. A number of the bunkers have been changed from sand to grass (really unmaintained weeds). There are many nicer courses for the money based on maintenance.

Very good public course

After a windy start and moderate temps, it got hot and felt humid. Not unusual for this time of year here in the desert. Course in very nice condition. Somewhat difficult for me as a high handicapper, even playing from the front green, tees.

Gary Playet Mission Hills (off season)

We really enjoyed playing the course although it was very dry, they are soon to close the course for 4-6 weeks and reopen in later autumn which is the grass growing season Palm Sorings.

It was priced accordingly and still great value.

Okay round

The course in general was in good condition for the fairways and greens especially for August. The bunkers were absolutely horrendous. Mud and hard sand. Water rivulets on sides. Many weeds. Although not in playing area per se driving from green to tee was very unappealing from brush, dead palm fronds, bushes and sand. I realize it’s the desert however. Finally, and I’m not sure this was the fault of the course but there was a sewer smell for the entire round.

Great course, great condition, good value $$

We played this course as our third day of a little golf vacation with me and three of my friends. We had a good time. The courses relatively easy to play. The greens are in really good condition given the 110° Heat especially. Would love to play this course when I come back into town

Fun and challenging layout

A challenging layout for mid-handicappers and easy to lose balls on the "water holes". The course can use a little TLC around the greens.

What a nice surprise

First time playing the course and I will return. I had an early tee time and was met in the parking lot by one of the attendants with my cart. Check in was easy and started earlier than scheduled. The course was well maintained, and the greens were in great shape for summertime. I was surprised to find the water feature clear and not a mossy mess. I played my best back nine in a long time.

The staff was its usual welcoming selves. The starter on the other hand could use a little customer service advice. Unclear and gets upset easily.
