Valley at Marriott's Desert Springs Resort

Unfortunately the foursome ahead of us was slow and there wasn’t a marshal to speed them along.

This put a damper on an otherwise nice day.

From Check in to departure, the staff was professional and friendly. Played an afternoon 9 holes. Pace of play was excellent and the course was in nice shape ... a very relaxing afternoon.

Everything was good except the conditions were not nearly as good as the other four locations we played in the area. Also there was nobody in the bag drop area when we arrived. Not a major issue for me but some others kept waiting and they didn’t appear during the wait

Played at 1 pm in less than four hours which was great. Greens and fairways not in good shape yet.

Fairways, greens, bunkers all in poor condition. Not up to our expectations of a Marriott property.

Staff, golf cart, driving range, practice green all top notch. Many very nice holes. Fairways not as good as could be; many patchy brown spots. No on course marshall. We were flying at a 3.5 hour round until #12, the foursome in front was unbearably slow to the point two of them left in disgust. The remaining two kept looking for lost balls, all stood around on the green, didn't rake bunkers and just plain lacked any courtesy. Hard to fault the course but if there was a marshal at least a complaint could be made in a timely fashion. Other than these two yahoos the rest of the day was pretty good.

This course was gorgeous. Everyone working at the course was friendly, and the golf carts were well equipped.

Overpriced considering the poor condition of the fairways

Nice layout, fairways not in great condition, greens fast and tough but not in as good condition as neighbouring courses. No on course marshals— we came to a roadblock at #15, a VERY slow group holding everyone up

"Excellent course, but compared to the Palm Course, the Valley Course has a lot of brown grass on the fairways that has not greened up from the reseeding in the Fall. As a result, you may have to pick up your ball and move it to green grass area around the dead brown grass areas if your ball falls into it. Greens were in good shape and so were the tee's. Pace of play excellent.

For $155 this was a rip off. Condition of the course was poor. No ranger. No help from the pro shop when our cart died around the 11th hole.

About as bad an experience I ever had on a golf course. I will never forget this adventure. I'm avoiding this course with extreme prejudice going forward.

Save your money. Play elsewhere.

Just got off the course 12/28/2022. Given the conditions of the course, I should have paid $40 for 18 holes. The fairways were in TERRIBLE condition. To add insutl to injury, our cart died somewhere around the 11th hole and nobody was answering the phone in the pro shop after 12 tries... Luckily a cart girl was willing to help us and get someone from the garage to send over a working golf cart.

My buddy took me to his private club for a round of golf last week and I was just trying to repay the favor. I was totally embarrassed by the condition of that Valley course.

We went to the bag drop and waited about 10 minutes with a few other folks with no one in site. I went down to unplug a cart in the cart barn and bring it up. I was scolded by the bag person that I should have read a sign behind me which know one else read to call to get someone up. Not a great way to start and a snarky “merry Xmas” from him as we drove off.

The fairways are burned out on the majority of the holes.

What looks beautiful from a distant isn’t up close.

Save your $$ this course at this time was disappointing along with customer service subpar.
