The course at Corte Bella Golf Club was done in a desert style but avoids the target greens and forced carries that are at some desert courses in the area. It has a classic layout on a beautiful terrain of ficus, Italian cypress, and oleander, creating a scenic ambiance. The designer, Greg Nash, kept traditions of classical golf architecture in mind and made a course that champions the strategic player. Both the immaculately manicured greens and the wide fairways are well protected by bunkers on this course, making accuracy on the approach shot a priority. Water hazards come into play on three holes at Corte Bella Golf Club.

Great Course!

We were able to play since it was the off season. The course and practice facilities were great! The greens were a bit firm and slow but that was to be expected. The golf and restaurant staff were fantastic!

wide open fairways

Really nice course with lots of bunkers. Temps hitting 100 and plenty of water on course , which is good, because not much shade. Fairways wonderful, tee boxes mostly flat, greens good for considering the temps.

Top Notch

First time playing here. We had the course to ourselves so pace of play was great! The fairway and greens were in excellent condition. Bunkers were pristine. Pin placement was challenging. I had a coconut shrimp appetizer after. The entire experience was top notch! I would recommend to others and will go back again.

Take a Chance

I looked for a place to play under 4125 for myself and a guest. The criteria was within 30-minute drive and a course I had never played. Corte Bella met both of those requirements. The staff was very friendly; the range balls and cart were included in the price. the range was a bit beat up, and the balls were old, but it was fine for a warmup. The course conditions were good. The sand was fluffy and just fine. the greens were well maintained and lush, but a bit slow for my personal taste (ran about a 10, but I knew that from the other reviews I had read). Overall, very good impression and I would play here again.

Excellent On and Off Course

Overall, Very nice lush green conditions throughout. My two rounds recently (4/25 & 4/29) started with very pleasant and welcoming check in. The starter, Sierra, is accommodating, professional and very efficient. Flexible as well, to allow for my single player booking, to get out on time, and front or back tees, whichever was determined to likely be best pace. Appreciate all the staff I encountered.

Course conditions are excellent right now, with smooth, medium speed greens, and nice fairway conditions. A couple of soggy spots on fairways and a few neglected sand bunkers but nothing to overly negative about. Thanks to all at Corte Bella.

Love this course

Everything was perfect EXCEPT the greens. They were rolled, lush, true…but fuzzy slow. If you like an 8-9 then they were perfect. Sorry, I like 10-12. That will not keep me from wanting to return however. That’s golf! And happy to try to adapt as one needs to do something with every course

Mr sandman...

where can one tee off into sand, hit their 2nd shot into sand, then chip onto green and one putt for par? hole #18 corte belle of course. the good news is, their sand traps are well taken care of, but possibly badly positioned(where I hit the ball) the bad news is, there's lots of them. this is a beautifully designed course, lush, cut fairways, well maintained tee boxes and good looking greens. my only complaint would be the greens although true, were only moving at a 9 at best. for this time of the year, they could be better. but that is be nit picky. love the course. my hopes are the sand scares away many of you to allow me to get on easier

Windy weather
Used cart

Greens are smooth, but don't break much.

Played on a windy day which made the course more difficult. The fairways were full with only a few bare spots. The rough was dark green, thick and heavy. Depending on how your ball settle in would determine if you could get out easily or not. If it settle down getting a club on it was difficult. Conversely, if it stayed on top it was tee up for you and you'd get a flyer. The greens although smooth were hard to read as they did not always take the breaks. This makes putting difficult if you cannot tell if it would break or not even on a slope. We started just going straight at them and had more success.

Great course

For the price you pay this is hands down the best value you’re going to find. The fairways and greens are very well maintained. The carts were great. Will definitely be back.

super golf golf

we golfed this course on super bowl sunday-weather couldn't been better and pace of play was great! tee boxes fairways were in excellent condition, greens were very good, just short of excellent-all they needed was a little roll, but just loved the course. the layout, the elevated greens, the cut out sand traps and there were many. golfed this course many years ago and ecstatic to golf it again. if they can keep the price point competitive, this place becomes my new "go-to"
