Greens were fantastic

Greens were in great shape. The rest of the course needs work. Fairways were good, but anything off was an adventure.

Poor condition

This course is in poor condition, not maintained to palm spring standards. There are no restrooms on the course and the course is vastly spread out. You need a buggy on this course hard going for walking.

detioration

Several years ago, CCGC was a first rate Coachella Valley course. It still is a great layout, especially the Mountain (back nine) side.

Unfortunately, the course conditioning is now very poor, except for the greens, which are well maintained.

One of the unavoidable problems is the positioning of the wash, which significantly affects the playability of holes 1 and 10.

I suspect it will be very hard for there to be much chance of rectifying the problems, without a huge influx of new money.

Course not in good shape

Perhaps it was the recent rains. But the course is not in great shape at all. Even at $49 with cart it wasn’t worth it for us. Perhaps others are ok with it. In fact we returned to the clubhouse after 2 holes and there was a tournament happening. Good luck to them.

2 holes damaged by flood

A good course which needs investment in rough maintenance that would make it a very good course

Greens are amazing!

This course has amazing potential. You need a fabulous first and last hole. The greens are fantastic…the water is a perfect challenge…but fairways need more grass and less dirt. The course sidelines need more care. Thanks for the opportunity to voice our concerns. The cost is a definite positive.

Sincerely

Clare Downing

This course has very friendly staff.

Due to flooding the tee box was moved on number 1 and the back nine was closed.

Course in rough shape definitely needs some work to bring it up to others in the area. Washout certainly don’t help.

I will be back
