The Classic Club

I’ve played the Classic Club multiple times, the price has gone way up (as it has elsewhere).

Check the weather and wind conditions before booking a round (it can be very windy in that side of the valley and the course is already quite challenging, even for lower handicappers).

Would I recommend going? Yes, it’s a beautiful course and very well manicured. It’s a course I would play again (unlike the PGA Stadium course, played it once, that’s enough), but not one I would play regularly. I prefer SilverRock for the money.

Been coming to the desert to play golf for 50 years. Always play the Classic Club at least once. Fantastic conditions every aspect. Only thing watch forecast for windy conditions. Club can be a bit rugged if wind conditions over 25 mph.

Very nice course in good condition. Staff was excellent and pace of play was great. Very good value.

It is a good course. But compared with other courses around here, I think it’s overpriced.

The course is in excellent condition, as always. Staff was prompt and courteous, as always. This course does not disappoint!

True green, challenging course. Very good condition.

Absolutely loved it.

Value., condition, pace, layout was fantastic.

Lots of water but generous fairways…if you hit in the water, you more than likely deserved it..

The only minor fault would have to be the grass on the slopes to the water was absolutely shaved down so a slightly rolling ball along the slope had no chance of stopping before the water.

Great course. Can play tough as a lot of water comes into play. Fairways tend to slope towards the water. Overall great condition. A bit pricey for non residents.

Really enjoyed everything about this course. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great practice facility before our round. Course layout was interesting with multiple tees to challenge or relax your game. Fair price for value received. I'll be back.

Great course. Always enjoy playing Classic Club. A bit pricey for non residents.

Don't get me wrong it is a nice course, but I heard so much hype. The problem is I think a lot of golfers fall in love with the amenities and hand holding. I focus on the course, its layout and condition as well as pace of play. The course itself was in good condition, The course is wide open, you can land airplanes in their fairways. It wasn't all that interesting other than a couple holes. It good but there are a lot of other courses in the area that i would play in the area for far less money.

In my top 10! Interesting, a great layout and challenging!

All aspects of this first rate golf club are excellent. The staff, facilities, golf cars (can you say comfy seats?), practice facilities (free range balls), valet parking, beverage cart, tees, fairways, greens are all excellent and well worth the price. The only complaint is that some of the bunkers could have been better, but this seems to be the case with almost all golf courses these days. Caution: the course is located "North of Interstate 10" which means it's in a windy area. IF there are winds forecast in the Coachella Valley, you may want to wait to play this fabulous course. The winds can be very strong on windy days due to the course's location "North of I-10" in the wind corridor. We played on a calm day and it was sublime. One of the best of the very best in the Palm Springs area.

we often visit Palm Desert and we never knew this course. We were pleasantly surprised how good the course conditions were.  Beautiful green throughout the course.  Right now, I am writing while sitting in the room looking out at the Marriott's Desert Springs Villas' golf course which has tough green conditions.  We love Marriott Shadow Ridge golf course and Classic Club is as good or better.  The bathrooms that I visited were especially clean and orderly. 

Oh, my husband and I lost some balls into water that is everywhere. Very challenging course.
