Date Palm Country Club
About
Nestled in Coachella Valley, Date Palm Country Club sits at the base of the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa mountain ranges, providing nearly every hole on the golf course with a stunning view. The course is the centerpiece of a popular retirement community near Palm Springs, a location that enjoys nice weather year-round and is just 20 minutes from shopping, dining, and museums. The layout is on the shorter side, but it still has some challenging holes. The golf course demands accuracy with every contour of the rolling terrain and you'll be put to the test even further when maneuvering the small greens and narrow fairways. The bunkering is minimal but strategic at Date Palm C.C., and the occasional water hazard also comes into play. In addition to the golf course, there is a practice putting green.

My tee shot on the second hole. It was nice to get a birdie early. Photo submitted by Napawillie on 03/30/2015
1st time
Fun little executive course. Greens were a little choppy from aeration.
Punched Greens
Usually slow greens were even worse this time due to recent punch and sand. No warning on golf now about the conditions of the greens.
No matter, chipped in for eagle on a par 4, so didn't have to worry about putting.
Overall, course in good shape and good place to work on your iron play.
Where It Began
I learned to play on this course four years ago. So when I set onto the first tee and drive that little white ball, it amazes me that I usually am a 5 stroke on a 3 par! They take excellent care of the entire course, clean golf carts, and the staff is very welcoming! The challenges are the 8th hole where I have to hit over water and again the 12th - water is not my friend. However, I enjoy the course and play several times - this is how I judge where my game is for the day! Try it - you will love it!
Greens in excellent condition
Greens still running slow, but a little faster than usual. The course is in great condition for the most part.. A few challenging par 3's with some length and water hazards. Overall it's a fairly easy executive course, but a lot of fun to play to practice irons and short game.
Nice time,
Played early morning, had to wear out masks but that was fine, really enjoy playing Date Palm .
Short but fun.
GREAT CONDITION
The course is in excellent playing condition right now. Greens run too slow, but do hold approach shots, which is unusual here in the desert.
No water, no ice, wear facemask, (which is ridiculous on the golf course IMHO) no food, no beverage. What can you do.
Play was fast , so nice 3 hour round.
It's a fun short course with some challenges, a few water holes, and a couple of lengthy par 3"s. The par 4's are very short, under 300 yards.
Great course for newer golfers
This was our first time playing this course and we had a great time. For a shorter course, it had some challenging holes especially on the back 9. My girlfriend is new to the game and played the best round so far. It was also a quick pace to get 18 in. Iwe will definitely be coming back again.
Coronavirus golf
Course in great shape, set up great for virus play....will be back...
Golf
Greens slow. Course was in fair shape thought there was better bang for your buck elsewhere
Nice course for less experienced golfers.
Very lovely fairways and greens. The restaurant was excellent.
