Desert Dunes Golf Course
About
Desert Dunes Golf Course has a unique layout that combines a traditional links design with true desert-style golf. The course winds through natural sand dunes that are accented with mature trees and an abundance of native vegetation. It offers one of the most challenging rounds in the valley with narrow fairways, dramatic elevation changes, and fast, sloped greens. Collection areas and strategically placed bunkers border the greens. The most interesting of these bunkers can be found on the ninth and 18th holes where it sits in the center of the signature double green. There are also water hazards that come into play on several holes. In addition to the challenging round, the golf course offers scenic views of the surrounding mountains as well as the opportunity to play amongst wildlife including rabbits, roadrunners, bobcats, and even the occasional desert kit fox.

Good Layout - Some Work Needed
Nice course. Greens were a mess. Bump and bounce putting. Some traps were muddy. Otherwise, it’s a fairly nice course.
No Marshall
Front nine was slow Then s single jumped in at the turn and it went super slow, totally messes with my game.
Challenging
Always windy. Today was easily a 3 club wind. Greens were in abnormally bad shape. Slow and not running true in any way. It was the first day of the season and the music they were playing made up for the very poor greens.
Course dried out and over seeded.
Sand traps not maintained.
Employees very friendly.
Will have to try again in season.
Hot Day
Course in the process of reseeding but still fun. It was hot and very humid but plenty of cold drinking water.
Sad
Nice course that’s hit tough times. Fun place to knock a ball around. Can’t be serious about your score. Sand is so bad I didn’t play out of it. Some greens are decent and others are terrible. Staff was nice and pleasant. Good place to play if you short on time.
Not good
Well to start with cheap price 17 dollars to play but the fairways were on browned out only green in the course were the greens and they were slow if you just want to play cheep go there but lots of mud and dormant grass
Fun time!
Course was great! Very difficult for a beginner golfer but everyone there was friendly and helpful.
Love rough golf
Conditions reflect cutbacks on expenses. I still love the course and being in the desert. I just adjusted to the dry summer fairways and greens. I hope they’ll restore the course to a better level of conditions in the Fall.
