Fun course

Course was in good shape, bunkers need some work and couple narrow holes (which isn’t bad) but overall course was good. Don’t think I’d pay anymore than 85 bucks for the round.

Good time and value

We played in the morning just after 9 AM PT. The Pace was good and the conditions were good too. We especially enjoyed the speed of the greens. That said, the course is relatively short (Blue tees were only 6000 yards), but you can discover that before you book. It was an enjoyable round.

The course was in good shape but the homes surrounding the course were pretty shabby looking with a lot of junk in some of the back yards.

Pro shop staff very accommodating and friendly. Course is in nice shape. Very comfortable place to golf. Would be great if they had a monthly pass for regular golfers to make it a little more affordable.

Easy Play

First time my wife and played this course. Nice wide fairways, good conditions. Greens were also in good shape, not huge, but ball ran true, not much break in any putt. Sand traps were mostly hard packed. Pace of play was good, we would go back.

Forgiving

With wide open fairways and fairly level fairways this course is very accessible to intermediate golfers. The greens are in excellent shape and the fairways are green throughout the course, none of the brown areas from earlier reviews. Views to the surrounding mountains are beautiful.

Fun course challenging but not too challenge

The course is fun. The front nine is not as challenging as the back nine. Unfortunately you have to cross a lot of roads. You do not have the right of way, so be careful and have fun

Great Layout

Great playable course with mostly wide fairways. Water and fairway bunkers are in play on several holes, but are not overly challenging. Played this course several times over the past month, and enjoyed it each time.

little disappointing

flew in from Canada to play. was expecting more from Palm Desert. missing a lot of little things like beverage cart (no cat at all)

no on course washrooms, pro shop fellow could have been quite a bit friendlier, a little short and direct attitude. price is quite high for what you get. for the cost, i would not recommend

Good day of golf

We played course last year and it was pretty rough shape. Not so this year . Tees, greens and fairways all nice and green. Even traps have been improved. No driving range, but nice putting green and practice chipping green. Staff was pleasant. No Marshall, but this day we didn’t need it. He lunch on site and it was very nice. This one is a keeper for us. It is one of the older courses in the area, but the track is fun to play
