Be ready to drive.

The wind was overwhelming on this day. So bad we quit after 6 holes. No refund was offered. Overall the 3 9’s involve a lot of driving.

Unless you like wind, don’t play this course.

We booked through Golf Now after considering weather conditions. High wind was not reported, but after six holes on the Vista course, we were literally blown off the course with a high wind and dust storm which resulted in very poor visibility. Having paid for 18 holes, we felt it was only fair that the course would give us a ‘rain check’ for nine holes. However, we were told that they would not give a rain check or a refund for nine holes, which we felt was bad business. We won’t go back.

Nice course

Went out as a single and was treated great by cart staff. A little crabby in the pros shop but it was early . Was paired with nice people on a course in awesome condition No real complains about the course. Not to difficult a track which was perfect for a guy who just got here from the snow. l

No complaints. Fun round

Desert Princess is in very good condition. Not overly difficult, but has some challenges. Lucky our group included a lady who knew her way around because getting from some greens to the next tee area is tricky and there were no maps. The staff was friendly and helpful. I’m looking forward to my next round there. The group that I was paired with was fun to golf with.

Roll out the carpet!

I played this beautiful course in spring-like conditions. The fairways were lush and well manicured. The course wasn't intimidating for a high handicap player (me). The neighborhood and setting is beautiful.

Nice, budget-friendly alternative for desert golf

This is a good place for a shakedown round before hitting some of the higher end places in the valley. Beautiful views of the mountains and very well maintained greens and fairways make this experience a good one. The course is on very flat land and wiggles through a retirement community so at times has a high end muni feel. That said I found this to be a great, affordable way to kick off my weekend.

Desert Princess

Front 9 (Lagos) fine altho zero signage between very long commutes between some holes. Back 9 (Cielo) has water on every hole but one and the first hole is a commute into the flood channel and very narrow fairway.

Won’t play there again ….

Enjoyable Experience

My daughter and I had a great experience at the Princess. The area outside the pro shop is beautifully planted, and puts you in the right frame of mind. All personnel -- cart people, pro shop staff -- were very friendly and accommodating. The entire course was in excellent shape -- lush (but not overly watered) fairways and slick, challenging greens. The only odddity was having to drive a long ways to get to #1 of the El Cielo course, a hole with a links feel. All in all, a really nice experience. I'm booking the course to play when three friends come into town.
