Fairways are horrible - as in no grass

Worst course conditions of any Coachella valley course. Ruined by Troon Golf.

Brutally slow

Letting 4 inexperienced golfers with a photographer on the course explains their mindset. Couples behind us gave up after 4 holes…no on course marshals.

Poor condition

What’s up with the greens and the manner in which they are mowed? Tee boxes Ok, sparse grass on fairways, should be lift clean and place; far too much sand in bunkers, fairway bunker lips are far too steep. Troon Golf is ruining this place. Whoever sets the pins needs to get some help, as in psychological help. Pin locations on hill crests or slopes.absurd!!!!

Really enjoyed Shadow Hills South

Course was in good condition. New carts with ball/club washer plus USB charger onboard. Snack bar was closed when we made the turn at 2:00.

Poor poor conditions

Very thin lies on fairways, ridiculous foot deep beach type sand in the traps, which are too severe in that lips are far too high. Hit it in a fairway trap and you will not get up and down. Close to the worst greens I have ever putted on. Course layout is OK. Course is overwatered! It’s not 120 degrees anymore. Very disappointed in that I’m a member and of the 15 or 20 courses I’ve played in the valley, this is by far the worst. Sorry I bought here.

Great Neighborhood-like Course

With all the courses in Palm Desert, you find yourself comparing courses against perfection. It's really not fair. This course would rival any best course in my home town. I think it's a fair course with some interesting hazards, but not overly difficult. It's not a PGA championship-type course, but it has enough undulations and interest to make the round memorable. The course had just been reseeded and was it great condition.

Beautiful course

Play a little slow due to cart path only. The Marshall explained it all to us and we totally understand. Look forwarding to returning to golf there again under normal conditions!
