Ocotillo Golf Club - Blue/White
Rating Snapshot
About
Ocotillo is a one-of-a-kind golf spot in a state full of top golf spots, and the four-star golf course is suitable for both golf upstarts and old-timers.
Ocotillo's Blue Course is a watery grave; water comes into play on eight of the nine holes. It's not overly long but there's so much water the length becomes irrelevant. The best hole may be No. 1, a 590-yard par 5. Big hitters are faced with the classic risk-reward: Do they lay-up on their second shot or try to fly a tributary that splits the fairway about 50 yards short of the green?
The White Course is the most unique of the three. It has only one par 5, and the water is a factor on just five of the holes. But it also has the best hole on the property -- the 479-yard, par-4 ninth, which used to be an easy par 5 but is now a treacherous finishing touch.

Course conditions were kind of strange for Ocotillo
The fairways were really unevenly mowed. Something must have been wrong with the mower decks or blades to be that uneven. And the driving range is way too close to the #1 tee box on that left side. Someone is going to get hurt bad. The pin placements were pretty brutal also. But it is quite a test with all the water and it’s always fun to play. One of my favorites!
Dear riceclay01,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us, I will follow up with the maintenance team about the uneven fairways. Ocotillo is a challenging track with lots of water and quick greens. We are happy to hear it is one of your favorites, and hope to see you again soon.
Have a great Sunday!

Always a good deal
The course is in good shape the fairway are excellent. The green were probably punched a few weeks ago so in about two weeks they should be running pretty good. It’s worth playing.
