Lots of bunkers, little sand

Overall a fun course. Well maintained fairways and greens. It seemed that every hole had fairway bunkers to contend with and narrow targets between them. All of the bunkers were hard packed sand and that was the only thing I found disappointing.

Fine but overpriced

Just too much money for the kind of course it was. It was fine, fun enough and forgiving. Greens were in good shape. But it was not a $120.00 course...and honestly, felt like a bit of a gouge.

Nice Palm Springs golf course

Received sub-par service at the pro shop. I tired asking the gentleman twice for my own golf cart but was told my “deal” only provided 1 golf cart for my two-some. Just felt like they were trying to conserve golf carts so I would’ve appreciated that if they would’ve just told me. Course conditions were great and staff on the course were friendly.

Palm Desert Country Club

Traditional Track in the Desert without hardly any desert landscape.

Played in 3 1/2 hours as a twosome.

For the first time I have played this course, I was surprised at how nice this course was for the value. Most places in the Desert charge twice as much. I will definitely play this course again.

Palm Springs disappointment

So if I was in somewhere else looking to play a cheap municipal course, this course would have been fine, but I was visiting Palm Springs and this was nothing like I was expecting, it was a step above a goat pasture.

The course was flat as a board, no personality or unique features, nothing like the resort courses throughout the city.

From the first tee, I was looking forward to finishing and mad that I just paid over $100 to play this course. I hated that this was my last round of my Palm Springs/LaQuinta visit.

Course was relatively very easy, i did not play well and still broke 80. Greens were in good shape, sand traps jad no sand(common theme throughout all the courses), tees were fine, fairways hard and not plush.

Bottom line this is not a Palm Springs type course, not one worth traveling to to play, though of looking for an easy, forgiving course this will do, but I would struggle to ever pay more than $40 let alone over $100 to play jere again.

Excellent, fast greens.

The greens were in great condition and were rolling at about a 10. Very nice compared to other courses played in the Coachella Valley around this same time. The rest of the course is in average condition with a layout that weaves in and out of homes and streets.
