Nice course.
Its got very challemging greens, for a low par course.
Good value for your dollar. Be prepared to wait every hole.
Fairways are Perfect for beginners
Fairways are straight and good for beginners but the crowned greens are difficult. Staff very friendly.
Refund requested.
My only big disappointment was I didn’t get my 20% discount offered when booking. I must have messed up but would like a refund!!! Rex P.
Overbooked
Overbooked by at least 3 parties. 5 min wait per hole and people riding us the whole time.
Most Unorganized Course
I have come across many unorganized courses but Desert Sands had really out done themselves when it comes to being unorganized and having unfair treatment. Me and my buddies went golfing for my birthday so we decided to go early and hit a few balls at the driving range while we wait for our carts. My buddies are new to sport so they kept asking questions to the worker in the shop, off the bat he was rude. Our tee time was at 1:51 and we didn't hit our first hole til 2:45. While waiting to hit our first hole they shove a random person in our party without asking or consenting to us. On top of that they made two carts that were behind us hit before us just because they could tell my buddies were beginners in the sport. Please take it from my experience, if your trying to bring friends or family to golf and have a good time, this is not the place. I would recommend Dobson Golf Ranch, overall great experience.
Course is in great shape since over seeding. Greens are much faster than the last time I played
A joke
Played all by myself at the end of the day. A single. 9 had my son with me, he wasn't playing. Upon arrival I was charged 43 dollars for a tee time that was 29 on golf now. Then she has the nerve to pull me off the tee box to tell me I have to pay another 12 for my rider. Listen if its slammed and I need my own cart I get it. It was dead! I had the tee time to myself. It's pathetic that they would charge this. I have been going to the sands for 5 years now at least 20 times a year. I'll never be back. There is way to may other courses that would gladly take my money and not be dicks for no reason. Just ashamed at how stupid and ignorant people can be.
