Mountain View at Desert Willow Golf Resort
Rating Snapshot
About
The second of two Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry designs at Desert Willow resort in Cathedral City, Mountain View is a little shorter (6,913 yards) and boasts wider fairways than the Firecliff Course.
There are also half as many bunkers as at Firecliff. Which still means there are 98 here.
Still, water comes into play more on Mountain View. The course name is no misnomer either. Golfers actually do get great views of the Santa Rosa Mountains as they take on Hurdzan's desert landscaping. This is resort golf with real nature touches.

Simply stunning! Photo submitted by ForeinSD on 05/09/2017
Perfect conditions
This course used to be regular course until I moved away. The conditions are perfect. Course is beautiful and staff is great. Highly recommend!
We had to cancel date March 9th due to high winds my husband could not keep his hat on and he recently had skin cancer surgery on his nose I had no way of contacting you to retrieve our deposit the course refunded the remainder of our fee
Lush and Green
This course was in great shape when I played it. It was a lot more lush and green in the out of bounds areas than some of the other courses in the area.
Range was closed for repairs besides the no range the experience was great
Back again after away from desert for two years.
Love this course. In perfect condition. Very organized and friendly staff,
Great day , and finished it with a terrific meal on the deck at desert willow beautiful
Pace of play
We finished in about 3:30, definitely under 4 hours. But we kept getting annoying pace of play tips on the cart gps.
Mountain View
Nice track, generous fairways, interesting layout, and well maintained.
JB
Amazing pace of play today
Course in great shape
Slick greens
Mountain View
Course was in good shape. Fun layout. Greens on the slow side but not shaggy. Overall very good track.
Rushed round
Nice course and in good shape. We were paired with two locals who may not have liked each other, so our round felt rushed. Would have enjoyed taking a bit more time to enjoy the round and the scenery. Very pretty course.
5th trip to the desert-Finally played this place
Have stayed at Westinghouse Desert Willows condos 4 times in the past, walking trails near the course and have wanted to play but other commitments made it impossible. Worth the wait and will play again and come back to try Firecliff too.
Fabulous course
We only had time fir 9 holes, but wished to play more, the course was in great shape.
