One of the better Yuma courses

The course was in good condition, you can walk or ride it. Play was a reasonable pace. There are some nice distant views of the mountains. It was $45 per person with cart, so that’s on the edge of being value or not. Prices will go up more in December. Overalll I liked it and I went back.

The course is always in great shape compared to other local courses.

My only problem is booking a tee time on-line. The courses website shows all tee time as costing $1001.00 and it doesn't show what tee times are available. This is a minor thing but the site has been like this for years.

Golf between dove hunting

The course was incredibly well-maintained and designed. We ran into a dust storm while playing so we only played nine holes, but that wasn't the course's fault. Other than that I was very impressed with the course and would play it again whenever I come to Yuma.

Expected hot.

It was slow, only because we had a slow threesome in front of us. Never waved us through, but they were friendly. It was super hot, but I expected it (105 degrees),

Desert Hills

Golf course was in decent shape. Greens were nice for the most part. Some rough fairways. Pace of play was decent. I would like to see a water station or something to fill a water bottle on the course. Staff was extremely friendly. Great deal for the price!
