Firecliff at Desert Willow Golf Resort

The staff are extremely friendly and ready to assist players. I even had a guy from the pro shop come to the range to check out my swings to see if I needed club fitting. He didn't try to sell the service and, in fact, just gave me good tips to hit the ball straight. Some very good tips. Thanks to his advice, I played +3 in the front 9. This coirse is a must for Palm Desert. I'm a resident, and I enjoy aging here at least once or twice a month.

The course was in great shape, and the greens were nice and true, could be a little faster but considering the time of year and being so Hot they were the best greens I have played on all week,, I will play this course every time I come out to Palm Springs !!!

A Great course with excellent greens and a great layout. Good for all skill levels.

One of the best courses I have played as far as course conditions. Fairways and tee boxes were absolutely pristine and the greens rolled true.

Didnt have much options at the turn for food wise but the bar inside is very nice with great views out to the course.

Playing the tips makes this course difficult as some of the tees are way back on some holes and make the Par 3's a real challenge.

The scented ice cold towels on the course are also a great touch.

Ben (from Mississippi) in the pro shop was also a great help and very friendly.

Firecliff gets my vote for best course in Palm Desert area! Definitely will be back!

POP was 4.25 hours, beautiful day with nice winds.. just what I expected coming from the I.E.

Course was in excellent condition. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Was hot around 103. Several holes are really good to look at from the tee box. Greens speed was moderate.

One of our fav courses in the desert. Great practice facility, start times always on time, and friendly staff. Fairways are awesome and greens somewhat fast. Love Firecliff...

Really enjoyed this course. Beautifully maintained.

First time back in 6 yrs. Things have only got better. Superb experience from start to finish. Would go as far as saying this is one of the best courses I have played - and travelling the world I have played a lot! Well done to all. Firecliff will be visited again.

Would love to play again now that we have some course knowledge. From the tee box can't see the rolling undulations, which are fine but felt at times would like to have known the course better to score better.

Super day at Desert Willow. This was just a wonderful experience. We arrived at the pro shop to a very friendly welcome. The staff could not have been more helpful. Firecliff can be a bear with all the fairway bunkers and traps. I only found 5 of the hundred plus sandy areas. Unfortunately, some of the earlier players do not share in proper golf etiquette. We found numerous bunkers with lots of footprints, divots, unraked ares to the point we had to rake bunkers both before and after our shots. Other than that, the course was in great condition. The fairways are wider than the visual you get from the tees. The greens are tough with lot of undulations but the putt true with a proper read and pace. The course has just enough water to give beautiful views without demanding too much from the golfers.

I live here in Palm Desert and have played many courses in the Coachella Valley, Desert Willow will give you a wonderful day of golf.

I'm playing here again in two weeks and look forward to it without fear of all those bunkers. No more fear!

We unfortunately played on the hottest day of the week. However, the course was in great shape. The greens had just been aerated so a bit more difficult. Even if they had not been aerated the greens are very sloped and are tough for putting. The fairways were great as well as the pace of play. Would play again.

Played five courses this week, including other comparably rated courses. This was the best of the bunch.

Next to PGA West, think this is the best overall track in the desert. Service was excellent, and course was in great shape. I played the Firecliff on this day and had a great time. Pace of play was also good. Only waited on a couple par 3's on the back 9. Not sure I would recommend at the normal rates, but is a great track and would absolutely play again for $89.
