Mountain View at Desert Willow Golf Resort

Our round at Stone Eagle was cancelled due to the Corona Virus. Got on line and found this course. We paid less than what we were going to pay at Stone Eagle and got a great value in return. Course is immaculate. It rained most of the back nine, so the weather impacted what was a great golf course. Will come back and play the other course. Can’t believe this is a muni and owned by the city. Highly recommend.

First time playing mountain view and was not disappointed. Both courses here and the facility are top shelf and would recommend to anyone. Pace of play could use a little work but I say that everywhere.

This is a hidden gem among a plethora of courses in the Palm Springs area. The fairways are in perfect condition, and the rough is equally in perfect condition.

The entire course is expertly manicured, and the greens roll true. Definitely worth the money!

The booking on GolfNow did not tell us that the range was closed. That’s a pretty important detail.

Marshall’s were non existent. A twosome backed up four groups behind them by the 4th hole and the marshalls never came out to speed them up.

Several people had told me to

Play here and now I get it. What a gem, great views, great course, great time. Played the Purple tees and loved it. Tough but fair. Pace of play was perfect despite the frost delay. Restrooms appeared as you need them. Staff is fantastic, and very helpful. Can’t wait to come back.

This is a great place to play when in Palm Springs/Palm Desert area. Very friendly staff. Nice practice facility. Golf academy on property. Well maintained. Advance reservations highly recommended. The greens can be tricky as many are convex in shape. Layout is beautiful.

The sister course Firecliff is also well worth playing.

Mountain View plays through Westin Desert Willow Resort

and one can easily walk from the resort, or have staff give you cart ride. Also a beautiful place to stay/visit.

Mountain View at Desert Willow might get overlooked because it is a city owned public golf course- but any ideas about ‘MUNIS” go out the window here. From the minute you pull up and are greeted by one of the super friendly valet guys, they grab your bags and get you squared away in minutes. The pro shop is well stocked and the restaurants are fantastic.

The course has all you want no matter what tees you play and I have played them all. It is always in great shape in season and in the summer. There are always marshals and I have never had a round even in the busiest of times that took over 4 hours. Great risk reward holes and the greens are always well taken care of. Don’t write either course off at Desert Willow Firecliff with all its bunkers and Mountain View are always a great time.

Horrible course conditions on the Mountain Course and completely torn up. It took until the 11 to hole for a never gave cart to get to us. What a bummer.

we played at fire cliff before very good condition. we thought would be the same at the mountain but it is not.the second hole partial green was no grass.

Liked the course layout. Course was pretty chewed up though. Greens really brown and beat up. Expected better. Played behind a couple of groups which were clearly some sort of a guys trip given the ridiculous matching clothes they were wearing. Unfortunately they showed zero respect for anyone playing behind them. Group after group after group behind us quit. We were on over a 5 hour pace and we finally gave up at #17. Course Marshall showed up for the first time on hole 15. Stage was very courteous and polite in spite of everything. Great food and restaurant. Amenities were top shelf.

Played Desert Willow for the first time and enjoyed the course. The good; nice course layout, wide fairways and the right mix of bunkers and water hazards and slope. Friendly staff.

The bad; overbooked tee times and too many late arrivals that pushed back tee times and jammed up the pace of play with 2-3 groups waiting on some holes. This is frustrating when it's 95 degrees and you're waiting on every hole.

My two cents, would play again but I expect better tee time management.

Mountain View was in great shape. Love always playing at Desert Willow. Highly recommend the facility.
