Rams Hill Golf Club

I received a promotion by Ram’s Hill that the course received a new seeding to enhance the pleasure to play the course. Exactly the opposite happened with a new turf that is not only tough to play, but has made the soil so hard, that the ball becomes uncontrollable following the shapes of the course over 30, 50 or even more. Such a pity because I was a big fan of Ram’s Hill, but that in the future I will no more do the excursion to Borego Springs from the Coachella Valley.

The round will be an excellent experience from the moment you leave your gear at the bag drop to the bite you eat after the round. The course is in excellent shape and every hole feels unique. 10/10 would play again.

The new turf has made the course rock hard and the natural shaping of the course makes the ball uncontrollable and the game unfair. A ball running for more than 50 yards right or left is not golf but more of a gambling game. It is a real pity because I love the layout and views of the course but this time I did not enjoy playing Ram's Hill.

Not sure what happened to the course. Conditions were fantastic in October and now in January all the fairways are like playing on concrete. there is no grass on the fairways.

i could live with the conditions if we weren’t playing top dollar for the round but value for money is not there right now. it’s too bad because the course layout is amazing.

Just finished playing for the 4th time in the last 4 years. In my opinion, the new turf was a huge mistake. You can’t switch to firm and fast links turf on a slopey Fazio target golf course. Used to absolutely love it, but did not enjoy it today. Used to recommend to people and unfortunately would not recommend and wouldn’t play again unless I heard they made further changes.

A beautiful neiborhood was resurrected from the sand when Borrego constructed Rams Hill. You better be a good to great player to enjoy it though. The beautiful flowers guiding your path to the tees are sheer trickery to what is to follow. A good shot in golf is to be rewarded. At the Hill your reward may likely be a sand trap, 50 yards left or right of your designated landing spot. It is infuriating. The tacos on the 14th were a peace offering.

I love the course but I need a caddy or a Pro to keep me out or get me out of the traps. The staff is great because they realize your inner torture. All the course needs for bliss is a bulldozer and a surveyor. See you next year.

I live in Vancouver Canada and have a home in the desert. The golf courses in the desert area are all fantastic but going out to Rams Hill to play is a treat. Yes the drive takes roughly 90 minutes but it is worth the time. The head pro makes you feel welcome and goes out of his way to make you feel like your at your own home course. The layout of the course is fun and the-greens are tough but so-true. Leave your ball below the hole. We will be back many times so take my word and bring your friends you wont regret driving out there to play!!

Far too many of the fairways and greens had such severe slopes that well hit ball would roll down and off the fairways and greens.

Got really tired of it. Our playing party agreed that the slopes were "unfairly " Punishing good shots and puts.

Beautiful, but just not fun.

Fast tiered greens. You need to play here more than once to figure it out. Wrong side of the hole is a guaranteed bogey or worse. Can't wait to play it again. Greens were rolling 11.5. A must play!

Don’t get me wrong. Course is fantastic. Played it 5 times over the years. Played in November and conditions were pristine! This time, not so great. Fairways were little burned and greens harder than all get out. Start was rough with no balls on the driving range. Had to wait 15-20 minutes for guy to fill back up. Group behind us never had to wait but marshall told us to catch up to group ahead. We were never more than 5 minutes behind pace.

Great track and layout. Greens rolling 11.5 so don't be above the hole.. In the middle of nowhere but worth the drive.

Great day out at Rams Hill. The course is a lot of fun, and the greens were mint and running at 11.5 . The course impressed with its visual layout, strong bunkering and strategic options. Never would have guessed they redid the fairways this summer. Staff were excellent. The free street tacos at the turn were a pleasant and tasty surprise. Will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed the scenery and the golf course.

This was hands-down, the most epic golf trip I have ever been on not just the tournament itself but the facilities the golf course the staff and the housing was absolutely amazing. It’s something we’re gonna do every single year.
