Hidden Gem

I’ve been coming to the Palm Springs area for 6 years now. I’ve never had the opportunity to play here. This will be one of my top 5 places to return to. Great track with lots of water but also lots of room to stay away from it. Traps were in good shape. Bartender made a great morning Caesar for us. All around great day!!

Desert Princess

Staff was kind about our on time arrival. The course grounds were brown and some areas were dirt. The cart person didn’t come by the entire round. On such a hot day it would have been nice. The restaurant staff and food were good. The pro shop staff were great. Thank you we enjoyed our round

Very disappointing

I know it’s in the middle of summer, but holy crap! Greens were OK though tee, areas and fairways were in the worst shape I have ever seen, it’s really sad to see, but I know this place has great potential. Hopefully it will be better next time playing.

Summer heat

As is typical during the summer, the course is not immaculate, as it is during cooler months, but still very playable. Good lies are sometimes hard to come by. Staff is great. Food and drinks are great. Turkey Wrap is delicious. Look forward to playing here again.

Summer Golf

While the course conditions are spotty in several locations due to typical summer weather, the greens and most fairways were in great shape.

The staff is exceptionally friendly, courteous and helpful.

I had a wonderful round.

Nice course

Played 18 holes in a little over three hours. Wide fairways but plenty of water and bunkers to find. Signage needs improvement from Lagos #1 green to #2 tee box. Had no idea where to go. Summer rates were available. Tee boxes, fairways and greens in great shape.

Poor Planning and Communication

There was a tournament taking up 2 of the 3 9 hole

Courses. We were not notified until we checked in that we would have to play the same 9 twice. Then it was the most backed up mess I’ve ever played in. By the end of the 2nd hole, there was a 4some on the tee box, a 4 some waiting, then our group waiting and the group behind us waiting. And there was no shade the last 6 holes which in 105 degree heat moving that slow was unbearable. It’s was so grossly mismanaged that we didn’t even circle around the play the 9 holes again and not even worth going back to ask for your money back or for a rain check of some kind because we were leaving the next day. Wouldn’t recommend this course to anyone.
