Cow patch
I was very disappointed in the condition of this course, as there is clearly potential for it to be an above average site.
They have lots of water hazards to work with, but the traps are often filled with half sand and half gravel.
The fairway grass is also very disappointing. This time of year it should be easy for them to have it lush and green.
We will not be back, as there are many other places we can visit.
Nice greens, pace of play was fine. Last minute booking, was an OK course for the money. Resturant was vey nice. Outdoor seating.
A disappointing experience
Day after a rainy day. Back nine was closed. Driving range was closed. Leaves, branches and debris all over the course. Starter was grumpy and unhelpful. There are many better choices than this course.
Decent course plenty of challenges
Course was in avg conditions greens were in nice shape and quick fairways decent little rough near/around greens. Plenty of water holes with some target shooting needed. Staff were friendly and courteous. Got stuck behind two golfers not very good making round longer than necessary and no Marshall around. If u are looking for a cheap decent course with some challenges this is a course to give a try.
Inferior
First. I arrived 2 hours early. The starter treated a Golf Pass customer as "second tier", and refused to allow me to use an electric cart as I was "too early". That is nuts, there were LOTS of carts available.
Second. The fairways have little grass in many areas. Compare this to nearby Desert Springs ($65/ round), where the fairways are in great condition everywhere.
Overall, a below average course, which better fits $39/round charge, not $75. There was a sign up at the clubhouse asking $39 to play in an upcoming shotgun tournament.
It was not nice that the clubhouse folks who take your money treated a Golf Pass customer so shamefully. They could easily has have smiled, provided a cart. If I could have cancelled with Golf Pass 1 hour in advance, I would have.
I will not return to Cathedral golf course. There are better courses nearby at less cost, with nicer staff.
Cathedral Canyon
Booked this deal with a Golfnow Cyber Monday deal at $61. The course charged extra for range balls, which is unusual for Palm Desert courses, and the range was in bad shape. The restaurant was closed and no beverage cart on the course. The course is located in part of the "wash" area adjacent to the aquaduct. Located in an older community.
Worth playing
Well maintained course with you excellent greens. Speed of play was a little slow. Would have been nice to have a beverage card on the course. No way to call ahead for food either. Very friendly staff.
Course was a good value, greens were smooth, good pace, not overly fast or slow! Some work being down on the course around hole 10! Fairways were in good shape, not resort like but fair! Rough lines were haggard. Overall enjoyed the course for a warmup into the next courses I’ll play!
Good public course
Range
Is adequate.
Good
Greens
Could use some maintenance
