Mountain Vista Golf Club - Santa Rosa Course

We loved the 1:00pm shotgun start. Everyone gets to play their full round before dark. Great structure!

Love to play here which is very good condition. You must play this course if you travel Palm Desert .

Beautiful conditions, great pace of play, and just challenging enough to make the round interesting.

Course was in pretty good condition. Fairways & greens kept up well. Tee box could be cut down a bit.

Cold, foggy, misty morning when we played yesterday. Pace of play was great with course being close to empty. We finished 18 in 3hrs 30min, which was great.

Layout isn’t too challenging but not too easy. Its made for senior play, though there were a few tough holes.

Biggest issue is zero food or drink in clubhouse/pro shop. We could only get drinks from cart service which no one told us till the turn. Cart lady finally found us at hole 12. Decent course with zero amenities.

Checked in at pro shop and we were not told it was a shotgun start nor were we told that we were to start at the second tee. Locals passing by us told us to go back to see where we were to start. The pace of play was very slow. The course was in very nice condition.

Great course with nice wide fairways . Well maintained greens trebles and fairway. Only add would be GPS on board. No food or beverage carts. Probably due to most golfers live in community. We had shot gun start which squeezed more golfers in but pace was ok

Greens were lush, putting was tough and amenities great. Worth playing this course and it’s one of my favourites.

Thank you.

Course conditions were excellent and pace of play (4hr 10mins) was also great. Would definitely play again

Got our ahead of our tee time; course was/is in fabulous shape; as always - we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Definitely a must!

When you're out in the desert...you can never go wrong with the two courses at Desert Willow, the Classic Club, and a few others. You can add Mountain Vista to the list. I played the Santa Rosa course a few weeks after they completed their overseeding. The course was in really good shape...both fairways and greens. The greens ran true...moderate but probably not as quick as they will once they get the height of cut where they want it for the rest of the season. I didn't know or pay attention but this course lies in an senior active community and most if not all the golfers this day were probably residents with a few guests. They are friendly and like to golf but they don't waste time. We played in 3 1/2 hours never feeling rushed. Overall great experience.
