Firecliff at Desert Willow Golf Resort

I played the Firecliff Course many years ago. So didn’t remember many holes, but the course was in very good shape. Fairways: A, tee boxes: A, greens: B, course layout: B+.

I will play here again soon.

Rode the Purple tees (6676/72.1/136) in 3H, 15m midday. The weather was clear, fairly calm and around 110.

The tees were excellent, level, lush with few divots.

The fairways are lush, firm and really nice to play from.

The rough is lush and mowed down. Good POP rough, not penal. Generally nice to play from.

The waste bunkers were firm and not as well maintained as the greenside traps. The greenside traps had good quality white sand and were nicely maintained.

The greens are transitioning back to Bermuda. Firm, somewhat bumpy and medium speed.

The all grass driving range is included and above average. Nice chipping area. Customer Service always excellent here from when you drop your clubs off out front to when you pick them up out front. No cart person today. Good GPS on carts. Plenty of ice/water stations on the course. Highly recommended.

Rode the Purple tees (6676/72.1/136) in 3.5H twilight. The weather was clear, fairly calm and around 105.

Picturesque emerald green layout with a generous amount of white sand, nativescape and water to keep players on their toes. From tee to green, the course was in excellent condition. The greens are transitioning back to Bermuda and were more spotty than the rest of the course.

The tees were excellent, level, lush with few divots.

The fairways are lush, firm and really nice to play from.

The rough is lush and mowed down. Good for POP, not penal and nice to chip from.

The greenside traps had good quality white sand and were well maintained. The waste bunkers are firm and much more hit/miss.

The Bermuda greens were just okay. Firm, fairly smooth and medium speed. They are about to be aerated and they look like they need it.

Customer Service exceptional from when you drop your clubs off out front to when you pick them up out front. Cart gal out making the rounds. All grass driving range is included and above average. Good GPS on carts. Plenty of ice/water stations on the course. One of my favorite Palm Springs area public layouts, highly recommended.

I played this course on our first visit 10 yrs ago. It never fails to impress, everything is just so right.

I love this course, layout, difficulty, condition and attention to detail. Everyone so pleasant and welcoming. Played off purple and got round in 4 hrs even following a slow group who seemed to be playing for the Crown Jewels! No one minded as the scenery was spectacular. Highly recommend.

Course was in fantastic shape all around. Tripled 18 to shoot 77, won't forget this round! Don't pass up a chance to play both tracks at Desert Willow!

Course is in great shape. Finished in just under 4 hours....pace of play great. Very picturesque course! Would definitely play here again.

Breathtaking views, outstanding course conditions, Absolute delight to have played both the courses - on the same day.

This may be the prettiest course in the area. Many forced carries over desert hazards. You must be accurate with your big stick. Many hidden water hazards also. Driving from green to next tee box, you think you made a wrong turn because the course is only in plain site when you stand on the tee box. It is fun walking through the grounds to get to the next tee box. I very highly recommend this course.

If you like 5 hour round of golf this courses is for you.

Good day on the golf course. Practice facilities were good and check in was no issue. Golf course in good shape with many very scenic holes. Water stations with plastic cups only. Beer cart seemed to have pricing that was at the cart persons whim. Would like to see a posted chart for pricing for consistency. Overall a great day and will be back.

This place is as good as it gets for golf in Palm Springs area - private or public courses. On

par with Classic Club and better than Escena. Best suited for serious players.

This is a very nice golf course, but I had an unpleasant experience this time. The golfnow site listed the time as a special for two. We assumed that we could play as a twosome. The starter blocked us even though the other twosome hadn’t arrived. We had to wait 45 minutes until after 3:00 to start. A note, the food in the restaurant was very good. The play was fairly slow, but it is similar to most courses in the valley.

The course is in excellent condition

Layout of holes good. It was a hot day but staff was around to privife cold towels and check on golfers.

Firecliff is an immaculate course that invites driver off of every tee with its huge fairways. The equalizer are the greens as they are laser fast and andulating if you don’t hit the right spot on the green. Very little break on most putts even though to the eye, it looks like there is break. The pace really slowed down toward the end as the resort golfers in front of us slowly succumbed to the heat. Seen the beverage cart twice in 18 holes. The food on the deck was great! Just a heads up if your a socialable person, most guests we came across at the clubwere not. I would recommended this course over either Indian Wells Course.

Course in great shape and definitely one of the best courses in Palm Desert.
