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

Love this course. I was disappointed with the sand traps, as some were hard as rock. Greens and fairways were in awesome shape.

Good try but missed the mark

Received a call from staff that there was confusion with golf now app. My 12:49 tee time isn’t available so can I play at 12:15. I show up warm up and go out. First tee a 4 some showed up. I go back to the starter and now I’m told to go out as a single and squeeze in between two foursomes as a single. After 9 I called it a day.

So Much To Like But....

Great layout, excellent greens and fairways. Welcoming and helpful staff.

Bunkers terrible and don't equate to a track of this quality and beauty. A lesser but also obvious improvement needed is the picking or spraying of annual weeds around the edges of the bunkers and rough.

Very fun course

but the sand traps are awful. There is no sand in 17 holes of them. I have heard that it is a point that will be addressed during the summer months. The sand traps should probably be played as grand under repair. Other than that employees are very friendly, pace of play is great, course is fun but those sand traps...

Shot gun start

Shot gun start was good done in 4 hrs.

Bunkers on the whole course need sand and get rid of all the rocks,stones and pebbles out of them Nasty if you have to play out of them there were a couple by the greens that they had new sand but a lot more need to be done

Over priced tee fees with poor bunkers

Nice place to play but needs SAND.

Corta Bella is a fine Course to play. It is nice shape with exception to their bunkers. My thought is, if you want bunkers then put sand in them. Right now they are like playing off the cart paths. Other than that I loved playing the course.

Course Marshall

We didn’t appreciate being told to pick up the pace on the first hole because there was a 3-some behind us obviously in a hurry. We played the front 9 in under 2 hrs.

I regret playing on a cart path only weekend. Course is in great shape after oversees. Might be back to play on a weekday to avoid a 5 hour round.

Nice, Challenging, Fun Golf Course

First time playing here. It was in good condition for the end of the season. Bunkers were a bit hard, but fairways and greens were pretty good. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. I will be back at some point, if the fees are reasonable. Thank you!
