Firecliff at Desert Willow Golf Resort

Desert Willows is worth playing. The course is challenging but manageable with intelligent play. Can highly recommend. The staff were absolutely amazing.

Absolutely a beautiful course , every hole is well laid out and appeals to the eye . Well worth the money

Bermuda grass greens and all. Not my favorite but still fair. More difficult than the Mountain course. Great amenities and golf course. Very friendly staff.

Played the Blues (6676/71.7/133) with GK Guru's Roarsown1, Adigitalg87 and Rudyclub. Thanks to Robert, Gus and Tim for a great round! Pace of play was okay for a Sunday morning, around 4 1/2 hours in overcast conditions playing behind a tournament that moved well. Firecliff has a beautiful layout, well above average even by the high standards of the Palm Springs area. Really solid course at least as difficult as the ratings indicate. Numerous lakes that are very much in play to avoid. Many of the fairways appear tight from the tee vantage point. However, this is much more of a grip it & rip it course than first impressions indicate. Even with native/desert scape down both sides of most holes and with penalty shots lurking everywhere, I find most of the fairways are generous in width once you get out over 175 yards from the blues. The Bermuda tees were lush with even the par 3's fairly well maintained for divots. The Bermuda fairways were very lush. Firm but mowed high, which reduced the amount of roll. The course played much longer than in the winter. The Bermuda rough was very nice to chip/pitch out of. The ball sat up, but playing longer clubs was chancy because it would grab your club. The traps were nice overall with a decent amount of fluffy sand. The greens were firm and putted medium speed with few ball marks. The customer service was excellent from all encountered. The drink cart was out making the rounds & complementary range balls are included with your round on a great practice facility. Excellent touch was the attendant out delivering ice water towels to cool off with! The course overall was in excellent late summer condition, definitely the best of any of the 5 courses I played out here this week. One of my favorite courses in the Palm Springs area, highly recommend.

Nice course lots of work going on at nearly every hole.

Maybe because of time of play.

Beautiful, Brutal Beatdown with great views! Not a single house on this track! I did not have my best round off the tee so it made it difficult to recover but I had a great time! I will be back to play again!

I am a local and I golf every Saturday morning with a buddy for the last 2-3 years. although we never score like we would like-(lol) we always have enjoyed the course very well. It's a nice layout, It's in good condition, the staff is always professional & just an overall Nice Day always there at Desert Willows.

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.
