Desert Dunes Golf Course

Zero stars is my rating.

I’ve never written a review because most courses are decent. This was atrocious. It’s like they’ve given up on the course. The layout is nice and the staff are friendly. The course conditions were deplorable.

- Tee boxes that haven’t been mown in days and tee markers weren’t placed on at least 5 boxes.

- weeds around the greens were two feet tall

- greens were furry and very spotty

- fairways were also very patchy

- bunkers were muddy and some had standing water

Overall, course conditions were the worst I’ve seen in over a 100 rounds.

@Mr. Jones, whatever royalty you might be receiving, it’s not worth it. You’re a great designer and your name is associated with quality. You shouldn’t let this club market your name.

It was a windy day, but I enjoyed the day! The starter and staff were fantastic! My only complaint was having to pay for range balls after I already paid for the Round!

The course has a nice layout but is sadly in need of some TLC. . Greens looked like they had some kind of disease and course was not well kept. Took us 5 hours and 10 minutes to play which was ridiculous. I’d like to recommend the course but just too much neglect. Back 9 was much nicer than front 9.

This is one of my favorite courses in the valley, the first time I played this course this year. The greens are fast but they lack grass.

I would not recommend this golf course, by the third hole

we had the marshal telling us we were a hole behind.

We were followed by him for most of the back and then by the 8 hole we were three holes behind.

One of our group sternly asked him to stop harassing us and finally left us alone.

When we finished our time was 4 hours and ten minutes!!!

The course is awesome, but the marshal ruined a nice day.

Friendly staff. Challenging course. It was windy so be prepared. Had a great time.

Only negative note is that many bunkers do not drain well. But hey, don't hit it there.

Play started slow due to a lack of carts, but got 17 holes in after teeing off at 1. Beautiful setting and course was in good shape. Our only complaint is the lack of carts.

Course was in pretty good shape, greens was above averages and rough was thick in most places, and bunkers were not well maintained most water of was very wet. Pro shop and starter was friendly.

Course is way much better than LA area muni courses.

Marshall and starters are diligently doing their jobs, which was appreciated. Only ugly experience was

that Young man behind the cash register.

His attitude should be tamed more to learn where his salary come from.

missed the refreshment cart, phoned in and they sent out a free drink for our foursome. Very nice of them

Staff and conditions were good. Decently tough course with narrow fairways and quick greens with lots of break. Cart girl made a mean margarita. Great view of the mountains. Would play again.

Total disaster for this course! 3 hours to play front nine and another 2.5 hours for back nine. Started at about noon and didn’t finish until after sunset! Sand traps were mud pits. Could not play out of them. Washrooms at 10th hole were disgusting, Mens was so dirty, and ladies had no soap or toilet paper! Staff could give a crap about our experience. Not worth playing at any price.

The pace was glacial. Almost 3 hours for the front 9 alone

This course and others in the Palm Springs area should hire marshals to kindly move people along. The skill level of players is not a primary driver on pace. Beginners and very part time players can easily play faster. The other players we talked to agreed that the pace at this course and Coachella valley courses need to step to the plate

We played this course maybe a month ago. Seemed in worse condition this time! Greens were terrible.

Found course old and amenities dated. Too much compared to other local courses
