Excellent

If missed golf courses in Palm Spring, you should play this course, only 1 hour driving distance from LA.

As a reviewer mentioned before, the green is soft but FAST.

Beside some of fairways are needed final touch, the condition was very good compared to the price.

Keep a ball in fairway, otherwise you are in trouble.

Surprisingly nice

This is a little gem in the Antelope Valley. The layout will keep you on your toes with a good mixture of grip it and rip it and target golf. The greens were what surprised me most. In the middle of the desert, they were soft on the approach but quick and true when putting.

There were a few water stations that were empty which is a problem when it is 100 degrees in the desert, but apart from that a surprisingly enjoyable round.

All Around Fun course

I play this course often sometimes 3 times a week although I do not get bored of the layout, the greens leaves something to be desired. The Poa Anna is taking over and it seems this staff has not been trained to deal with it. It's over watered and that makes the greens soft and bumpy

Very good condition. Not an up and back course with holes going up, down and cross wind. Many elevation changes.

Great desert gem

Excellent greens. Challenging distances. Wide, well kept fairways. Doesn't feel like desert course, more of a Midwest feel. Definitely would play again if in the area.
Really good twilight prices, but you must then contend with the relentless desert winds falling down the nearby hills.

Well maintained for a public course.

I always enjoy this course. It is well maintained for a public course. Many of the holes have water hazards and the bunkers on each green are fairly deep with good sand. Saturday pace of play was surprisingly quick.

This course is fun to play!

The course is well maintained and the holes are very forgiving for all players. You still have to hit quality shots to score well, but your bad shots will not be penalized too much. Not your typical desert course even though this course is located in the mojave desert. Very fun for all abilities! I played with my parents (both over 60) and had a great tiime.

I love the set up of this course. Its challenging but not overly challenging.

This ismy second time playing this course and I'm glad its out here in the AV. Its the best course to play out here. Its kept up really nice, considering the weather out here. Love the set up. Its challenging but not to the point of frustration. The length is just right. My uncle and I played a super twilight starting at 3:00 and was able to finish in less than 4 hrs. It wasn't too conjested for a Friday. I would recommend this course to all of my friends.
