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.

Good course layout, fairway is well maintained, greens a little slow. Nice to play in a very green course in the desert area.

Ball marks!

Classy place, players treated very well range balls should be included, putting green excellent, practice range fake grass, must have yardage book for holes with water in play off tee. A zillion unrepaired ball marks on greens thanks to discourteous players.

Lots of water

If you play here, hit them straight or bring lots of balls. There is water on almost every hole and a lot of it cant be seen from where you are shooting . Leave the retriever at home because once in the water, it’s gone for good. Greens are fast and undulating. Tee boxes need work as they are often not level and some short holes they are in tough shape. Not worth the money unless you get a hot deal.

Conditions were tough because of the rain. Other than that it is a nice course. Great for the price!

Good course with moderate challenge

Good course with moderate challenge. Many holes with water hazards. Greens were a little bumpy, but overall were nice to put on.

Poor service, great course.

Review from 6.1 hdc.

Great course, I mean great. Lots of water hazards create a shot makers paradise.

Horrible service, tournament with dinner included ran out of food. Was told they only made 3 pans/trays of meat, and weren't supposed to make any more for the tournament.

Could be a great destination, but play and then go eat somewhere else.

Update 12/3/19

Course representative reached out about this issue and apologized and offered to make it right.

Would update review to 4/5 stars and would return again to play this beautiful course.

Winter Ready Excellence

Staff great as always. Slow play was handled by Marshall quickly. All aspects of course were in excellent shape. Greens are getting quicker from over seed. Very nice.

Only a few bunkers needing some love but most were really nice. Saw cart girls multiple times through 18 holes. $50 on a Sunday morning at 8:24. Excellent deal right now.
