Excellent Par 3 Facility

I’ve played a few rounds of golf here with my wife. Great course for the infrequent player or a chance to practice and improve your short game. A few sand traps to avoid, one pond to partially hit over and a big wash to the left on the first couple of holes. Great value and a friendly staff behind the counter. Will return in the future for a round of 9. Oh, btw, lemon trees line the driveway and at times a few need to be taken home. Check with management first

Short and sweet

Course was in excellent shape It was extremely busy with lessons. Could have used a Marshall as there was so many people milling around the first hole it was difficult to see who was next.

Lots of extra coaches also around the players which made it slower and pace was slower than it could have been. BUT beautifully kept course and good for iron work

Loved It

We arrived in the desert for a Thanksgiving vacation and my son and I wanted to play nine. All the 18 hole courses stop play at 2:00 pm. We found this course and gave it a try. We had a blast. Walked with push carts and played two balls chasing daylight as the sun set.

Conditions were good. Greens a bit slow. Got pretty windy. Great value for the money.

We came back a couple days later with the whole family and did it all over again. Great place for the less experienced player to get out and play nine.

Great for Iron Work

I only carried 5 clubs plus a putter (9I trough SW). If you want to practice with your short Irons, this is the place.

Enjoyed the round

I signed up for our tee time through Golf Now at $30/player for 9 holes I thought it was a great value. We played in the afternoon so the prices were less. The pace of play was great. I think we finished in less than hour and 40 minutes (twosome). There are lots of more challenging courses in the area, but on a lazy Saturday afternoon it was a fun 9 holes. We will play this course again.

Great way to practice with Rental Clubs

We rented clubs from Roger Dunn Golf and decided to get a feel for them before hiring the big stuff. That was definitely the right thing to do. Course is good good and sand is in strategic spots for the money it was awesome

Great Little 3 Par

It was a pleasure to play this course today. Check in was quick and easy....few people on the course, so pace of play was quick....great to work on short game.

The staff was really great - so friendly and accommodating:)

I played this course a long time ago. It looks like the management has taken pride of ownership, as the course is looking good.

Phenomenal Deal and Great Fun!!!

If you're looking to just have some fun on the golf course with family and friends without paying an arm and a leg, this isthe place. The price is fantastic, the course is fun without being aggravating and if you choose to play a 2nd round, it's ONLY $5. There's also a driving range. Among all the overpriced golf, courses in the area, this 9-hole course is a diamond!!!
