Challenging 9 holes with great views
Challenging desert 9 hole course with varied elevation changes and very tight fairways and undulating, fast greens. Unique layout with lots of variation for a short course. Many steep banks on the edges of greens ready to punish strong putts or weak pitches. Very enjoyable course for all skill levels.
Conditions were good to excellent, bunkers in decent condition, a couple tee boxes were a little beat up but nothing out of the ordinary.
Pace of play was pretty good but I teed off late afternoon and the course was not too busy.
Wish they sold beer/wine at the pro shop but everyone was super friendly. Definitely will return.

Great 9-hole course
I wasn't sure what to expect. I was told the course was closed for a couple years...and with the lower price to play. I could not have been more satisfied. What a great course. Course conditions were fantastic. I will definitely play there again. It is a real challenging layout also. The staff were so courteous and helpful, and give credit to the grounds crew for preparing and maintaining the course to this level. Thank you for this hidden gem.

Too tight for a 9 hole course
Very scenic course but a little too tight and difficult for a 9 hole course. Should leave the driver at home.
