From no ball washers early this year to plenty of washers now, excellent improvement. Thanks for the beverage cart. Best course I’ve played on in Yuma county

Sand traps could use some drains and general attention. The course, overall is in great shape and is a fun track with challenges. Highly reccommend !

I'll be back next year

Dessert Hills was definitely a great experience.

From the moment I entered the pro shop and talked with Chris, to enjoying $2 oysters at the outside bar, I had an amazing time!

I will be back next winter, for sure.

Thanks, Dessert Hills.

First Time Playing

Very nice Muni!

Visiting family in Yuma so played a round today. Nice course. Practice range a little banged up but nice short game area. Course in ok shape Few bare spots on some of the fairways which seems odd for Feb Arizona golf. Guy who checked me in (mustache & beard) seemed a bit standoff-ish but maybe he was having a bad day. Great bar facilities. Will definitely come back

This course is a pleasure to play

Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in great condition. Nice views of surrounding areas. It’s a popular course so pace was a little slow, had to wait at each hole but that’s to be expected once the snow birds arrive.
