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.

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.
Absolutely beautiful! course! Played with my two sons it was a blast. A definite must play in the Palm Desert area.
Great Track
Great day at Classic. Solid layout and track. Good condition. Greens rolling nice. It’s expensive but decent value for money. Staff are first class.
Still a gem
Hadn't played here in a few years. Redo of bunkers was very well done. The course design is or is close to the best in the desert. Played in 4 hours. The staff was great and love the towel and voucher for food. Hats off to Classic Club!
Excellent!
Greens were a bit slow and some of the oversees hadn’t come in yet so some of the run off areas were so slick that your ball would find the water easily. Overall, fantastic golf experience
A must play
Always enjoy playing here. In my opinion the course is over-priced (using their web site). Dynamic pricing is a joke.
great golf, it really is Classic.!
the 19 th hole food was not at all up to the rest.
We 2 played 3 rounds, and tried 6 different dishes, below mediocre at best. Fast food -served slow, highly advertised , but totally disappointing.
A pitty...
My favorite Public course in the valley
I play a lot. I have to figure out a way to not pay so much.
