Shadow Ridge Golf Club

Excellent variety. Perfect greens. Fairways and waste areas need some love

Being a high handicapper I played the white tees. Felt very comfortable on each teebox and had ample opportunities to make par. The well kept fairways and forgiving rough added to the joy of this opportunity. I would want to play this course often if I lived in this community. Palm

The course is in excellent condition save a few tee boxes that needed a little care. Fairways and greens were beautiful. Due to the type of grass on the greens, they rolled slow, but true. Ball only broke half as much as you thought it might. Staff were friendly and attentive from the pro-shop, starter, to the cart guys at the end of the round. Pace of play was great finishing in 4:15. Can't wait to go back.

Played the Greens (6621/71.5/130) in slightly over 4H in temps approaching 120.

I knew from a previous round that the course was "summer shaggy", but I enjoy this fun layout.

The Bermuda tees were maintained too long for my taste. Some were near immaculate, some okay while a few were poor.

The Bermuda fairways were also maintained long which limited the amount of roll and made the course play long. Semi lush overall but many fairways had sporadic patches of bare spots.

The Bermuda rough was mostly lush and penal. Just tall enough to catch and turn your club.

The green side sand traps were well maintained with good quality white sand which produced several fried eggs. Fairway traps were firmer and good to play from, I know, because I sampled several of them. Some fairway traps are waste bunkers & less maintained.

The greens here are very firm, which affects chips, pitch shots all the way to high lofted , well struck irons. They putted medium slow and were somewhat bumpy.

The customer service was excellent from everyone encountered. Drink cart out and around numerous times. Recommended = Yes.

Played 36 holes from the Greens (6621/71.5/130), averaging 4 1/4H per round with Robule, Mendel & Larry. It was 88 when we teed off early morning and 117 when we finished late afternoon. The breeze was welcome!

The layout is fun to play and suits my eye well overall. Numerous risk/reward par 4's that could produce a 3/4 or 6/7. Two par 4's over 460 from even the next to back set of tees. The par 3's offer a good variation in length and look. There are numerous large fairway bunkers to avoid, but the landing areas on most par 4's & par 5's tee shots are generous in width.

Sixpez's recent review was spot on. While the conditions were not bad, they were poor based on what I have experienced here previously.

The Bermuda tees were a mixed bag all over the board. Several were near immaculate. Others looked like a par 3 tee on a muni course.

The Bermuda fairways were semi lush but maintained long, you did not get alot of roll, which made the course play long. Many fairways had sporadic patches of bare spots.

The Bermuda rough was mostly lush and just tall enough to make you think twice when using longer clubs. Usually nice to chip out of.

The green side sand traps were well maintained with good quality white sand. Almost too much, our group had several balls bury in the faces of bunkers.

Numerous traps that appear to be green side from the tee are actually 25-50 yards from greens, so you can get unusual length sand shots here. Some fairway traps are waste bunkers & less maintained.

The greens were firm, putted medium slow speed and were somewhat bumpy. They held approach shots with some run out with hardly any ball marks because of the firmness.

The customer service was excellent from everyone encountered. Drink cart out and around numerous times. Recommended = Yes.

Awesome course, good condition for time of year. Great round,

Shadow Ridge is part of the Marriott Condo Timeshare property. This is a gen. Great layout. Very fun to play and in very good condition for this time of year in the desert. If you like fast greens this is not your course. But what they lack in speed, they held great. The course staff could not have been more accommodating. The pro shop is well stocked. The grill was not open for lunch after our round which was a bit disappointing,but not a game breaker. We had a 9 am tee time and were originally planned to be grouped with another twosome. My wife isn't crazy about playing with strangers and we arrived early and they sent us out on our own. Cruised through the front in an hour and 20 minutes. Got slower on the back when we caught up with groups ahead. Nice course. We will be back in November!

Shadow Ridge has a mixture of challenging and easy holes. All Holes are straight forward, no gimmicks to the course. The GPS system is accurate and lets you see the entire hole before you tee off.

Played two rounds on Saturday and finished each within the recommended pace. I was a hot day (108*) but we survived with plenty of hydration. The cart girl also continued to come around in the afternoon. The course overall was a good course, great layout, however the fairways were not perfect, a lot of bare spots, and the greens which were aerated a few weeks prior were very tough. The greens were rough and could have been mown to help the putts stay online and not die at the hole. Many of the holes on the greens were not cut cleanly, even as we started early in the morning. All four of complained about speed and pace of the greens dying 1 to 2 feet prior and we had 36 holes to adjust. Outside of that, the staff was great, the facility was awesome!

This course is always in great condition and always just enough challenges to keep you on your toes.

This was a great courselves with wide open fairways from the tees. Lot of sand near the green and fast so hitting the greenS in regards still made birdies difficult.

Played 18 in 3 hours!

Highly recommend.

As always we had a great time golfing here thank you .

First arriving at the course the staff was friendly and very helpful with explaining all the features of the course. The course itself was in great shape and a joy to play. The greens rolled very true , but were a little slower than they look. Fairways are like carpet and very generous landing areas. There are a couple of par 4's that with a straight drive are reachable, but the greens have some good undulations to test your putting skills. Very enjoyable and I hope to get a chance to play it again.

110 temp. Great practice areas.

Fun layout. Greens slow. Played fast.

Cart girl very attentive. Nice club house.

Will play again

The weather was perfect and the course was in great condition. The fairways are wide and largely open, but the greens and trap placements are challenging. The staff was friendly and helpful. My wife and I enjoyed the flora and fauna, and the beautiful desert vistas. There are several holes with timeshare units nearby, but they are not intrusive. The sewage smell of the recycled water in lakes and ponds scattered around the course was evident the day we played. But this was more than offset by the overall positive course experience--one of the best we had in our week of play in the Palm Springs area.
