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.

Awesome
The reviews said the course was terrible but was quite the opposite, the course was excellent.
Disappointed
Should be advised if greens had been sanded. Very disappointed. This course has gone way down with new owners.
Starter very mean & incompetent
Golf course nice. The starter, Frank was not nice, very grumpy, and mean!
Great day!
Quick play(4.25 hrs) great challenging coarse, fun day!
Good time
Tee boxes need some attention. Some greens were stressed in spots.

I love this place
Beautiful Course
This was the first time playing Ocotillo. What a beautiful course! Had a great round of golf.
Still very good, just not great
Course not in as good shape as prior years. Thinner fairways and greens. Pace of play was good. Beverage cart was scarce. For a Mickelson property it should have been in excellent condition. Having to buy range balls was disappointing.
Good course marshals ruin jt
Super nice course and fun to play. Good condition for the price. However the marshals just ruin the play there. If You want to be constantly watched and rudely told to speed up when you can’t play any faster cause there is a group in front of you then you’ll love this course. We had a marshal 4 separate times come to us and say we need to hurry up when no one was even behind us. They had the sprinkles following our tee time.
Overall nice course just won’t be going back. This is the second time it’s happened.
Course is in rough shape
I have played here many times. Usually it is in very good shape. I had not played here for roughly a year though. The poor course is in terrible shape. They definitely must have some over seeding issues going on. Not worth a $100 in this shape.
