Located at the heart of the immense Anza Borrego State Park, Rams Hill Golf Club sits perched on a hillside overlooking the desert floor. Tom Fazio designed the course, fully utilizing the existing features of the terrain from the natural slopes and undulations to the many lakes and streams. The layout features rolling fairways and elevated greens framed by carefully sculpted bunkers. Each hole has a different character, as well as a different set of challenges, thanks to the natural elevation changes. The final hole is considered a classic Fazio finishing hole and one of the most memorable on the golf course. This par 5 begins with a downhill tee shot to a wide fairway that slopes towards a large lake on the right, then you'll face an uphill third shot to a green protected by an array of threatening bunkers and a large waterfall.

Best of the Best

This is our fourth year coming to Rams Hill for a multiday tournament. This place never disappoints and consistently proves that it’s the best place to host our annual boys trip. The course speaks for itself, but it’s the staff, the amenities, and hospitality is really what takes this to the next level. Every year we are blown away at how consistent Rams Hill is. We will be back and know that they will continue to exceed our expectations!

Not as good as it used to be to be

We’ve played at Rams Hill for several years and always love coming. This Fazio design is fun to play but in recent years playing conditions have declined in a big way. No more overseeding the fairways due to the decision to plant a new type of grass. The lies are too tight and the ball rolls from one side of the fairway to the other. The greens are hit and miss. Use to be fast but not any more. Very sorry to see what use to be a top 100 golf course in decline. We decided to go elsewhere next year.

The staff are excellent both inside and out and the service was great but once on the golf course, it gets disappointing.

Great course, poor greens currently

The greens were long, sand papery and inconsistent. Some pins were not fresh cut, day old. Wasn’t worth the trip in these conditions.

Gorgeous setting and layout BUT

The greens were very poor for the price. They had been punched and sanded and they didn’t tell us ahead of time. Disappointing to drive from Palm Springs for 90 minutes to experience greens that were below average.

Fabulous staff!

We arrived at Ram Hills Golf Club in Borrego Springs all the way from Toronto for a 3-day golf clinic — only to discover that our clubs didn’t make it with us. Not exactly the start we had imagined!

Bob, Anna, Ben, and the entire team at Ram Hills immediately stepped in and went above and beyond to help. They quickly arranged rental clubs, shoes, and everything we needed to get on the course without missing a beat. Their understanding, kindness, and genuine desire to help turned a stressful situation into a positive experience.

The staff at this club are an enormous asset. We are incredibly grateful for how well they took care of us. Thank you for making us feel so welcome!

Spectacular

The grass has been changed since I first played this course (to make it better in the heat of the desert). The change has made an awesome course even better. Greens are very fast but also very true. Loved the change and the fact that this was my 2nd time back in the area and first choice to play should say it all. Not to be missed.

The course was fun to play. Very challenging and in excellent condition. The starter was great, and gave us some very good tips for specific holes. Great course to play and I would love to play it again.

BEST COURSE AROUND

This course is a gem, one of a kind… set in the beautiful secluded, peaceful Borrego Springs. The views are breathtaking from every hole. The staff is exceptional, friendly, professional and bend over backwards to make your experience one that leave you wanting to come back again and again. The experience of playing here raises the bar for all courses. If you never golf here, consider yourself missing out. Come try it for yourself.

Rams Hill is BACK!

We used to play Rams Hill a bunch back in 2020 2021, the conditions got a little bit suspect in 2022, so we stopped going for a few years, but we had heard they had redone all of the grass and so we took another shot last weekend. It was immaculate!! Greens were perfect. No bumps running fast. Fairways and Rough were great, all in all it was as good as I’ve ever seen it there. the layout is amazing, the service is top-notch, the clubhouse is great, the food is great. It’s better value than anything. You can play in Palm Springs or Palm Desert, highly recommend to check it out if you’ve never been.
