The Classic Club

About
On the Classic Club's scenic landscape, golfers will find a wide variety of trees including olive trees, towering pines, and California pepper, but unlike the many other golf courses in Palm Springs, there isn't a single palm tree. The Classic Club opened in 2006 to much acclaim and has since garnered a following amongst locals and visitors. Formerly a host site for the Bob Hope Classic, the challenging layout has an interesting mix of tour-worthy holes including intimidating par 3s balanced by reachable par-5s and short par-4s. Water hazards come into play on 13 holes. The back nine begins with a memorable stretch of holes. The par-4 10th is a tight driving hole with an elevated green and the 11th hole requires a shot over water. The stretch ends with the par-3 12th, which also plays over water to a well protected green.

Vacation
When on vacation (January) try to play Classic Club at least a couple of times. Overall a great course/experience. Some fairways were a bit short on new grass but overall very good. Getting a bit pricey but will play again.
Beautiful and Challenging Course
Great service from staff, beautiful course, very challenging layout. Windy conditions made things difficult.
Always enjoyable
Friendly staff. Beautiful property. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is because some fairways have some thin areas. It’s always been in perfect shape when we have played it in the past. Must’ve been a tough growing season
Phenomenal Experience
As a Coachella Valley resident I am pleased to say that this has to be a top 3 course in our area. It has challenging holes, amazing scenery, and friendly staff. From my arrival time the staff was friendly and helpful. Great service! Kevin was very hospitable! Will be returning and recommending to friends and family.
Classic Club
Course was in excellent shape, tee to green. Wind was mild. The staff were super friendly, everyone from the clubhouse to the starters to the staff. The course was difficult in my humble opinion and gets harder as the course goes on. Water features are beautiful and come into play throughout the course. One of the best courses in the desert among some pretty awesome courses for sure.
Best Public Course in the Valley
there are several reasons why this is the best course in the valley for its price point.
from the moment you get to the course there's a staff member to greet you with a very nice golf cart.
the chorus is in pristine condition grains roll pretty true maybe like a nine the day we played.
there are are all sorts of features including bunkers water and risk reward shots.
only downside I would say is it's almost mandatory to pair up in a cart if you walk on as a single.
this is your first time to Palm springs this is a must play course.
Always awesome
Play this course every year we are in the area. Never disappointed. Friendly staff, great conditions, beautiful place. Pace was a bit slow due to group in front of us. Would have liked to have Marshall either speed up group or would have made the group let us play through.
Great golf day
I would highly recommend this course. Really like the layout. The greens and fairways were in excellent shape. Very challenging at times. Bonus getting a food & beverage voucher. Always wondered about this course, glad I was able to play it. Will be back!
Best in the Valley
Fantastic layout and in immaculate condition.
I will play here every time visit the valley.
Great course and staffs
I really impressed great course layout and beautiful scenes at each holes and $25 vouchers were beneficial for us.
excellent but
Course and staff excellent as usual but hardly any golfers, in fact i was a single and fellow in front also. no one behind for at least an hour. golf now gives 1 tee time and then I golf alone, seriously. Not sure how Trune stays in business by not offering more tee times at reasonable rates. Not business model i would use but maybe an ego thing with them.
Frustrating, but gorgeous course
There is a lot of water obstacles on the course and I found it difficult to play a number of holes. Ball goes to the water in all cases, but a small error in your shot quickly gets magnified into a problem, lost ball and penalty strokes. Plus, you may have made what you thought was.a good or decent shot, but it didn't end up where you planned. We love this golf course.
Classic Club is a Great Course
The club staff was the most friendly I've ever encountered. They pick you up at the car and drop you back off after the round. Course in excellent shape. Great practice facilities. Overall, this was one of the best golf outings I've had. Highly recommend the course.
