Gem in the desert!

Great course. The grounds are beautifully maintained and the pace of play was good. Great day and there were enough challenging holes to make a very interesting fun round.

Will play again. And again. And again...

1st time at Shadow Mountain after years of playing in the area, and will be coming back. The course was in excellent condition, tee to green. Layout has some challenges but fair. Staff extremely friendly, shout out to Bruce the starter. He is very friendly, personable, good sense of humor and without saying so reminds us we are there to have fun.

underrated

This course is definitely top 5 in Coachella Valley for course conditions. Superb fairway and green conditions, bunkers very good.

Tees are not as good- a bit rough and uneven but not a problem.

Great Course

This course is beautiful, it feels like old school golf. Homes are vintage, course kept wonderful. It is a short course but offers all you need. I've been to 22 different golf courses this year, this ones a keeper.

Don’t waste your time

It’s a $20 beginner course. Tee box’s and greens are barely 25 yards apart Houses in play all day long. Cmon. Let’s tell it like it is. #goattrack

Great Quirky Course

Thoroughly enjoyed our round. Staff was welcoming. The course is in great shape, greens are a little slow, carts seem newer, but no GPS. Driving range has been converted to a putting course so they only have mats and nets, but that's the only negative. The course at first glance seems like it should be easy but some of the fairways are narrow and tight. It's an old property but surprisingly well cared for, a little quirky, old school vibe, and just a very enjoyable round.

Shadow Mountain- Fun course good condition

Really friendly staff. Cool old course with a nice renovation. I thought of being in the desert in the 1950s. Course was in great condition and pace of play was great. Looked like a lot of older low handicap regulars playing. Very tight layout and well protected greens.

Historic Shadow Mountain

This is not a modern 21st century course but it’s challenging albeit tight layout. It’s in excellent condition and all the staff are very welcoming and friendly.

Great views; great experience

Made reservation same day. Traveling w/out clubs. Good loaner set provided. Beautiful fairways, really nice greens. Lots of bunkers. Trees can make it challenging. Incredibly friendly staff from check-in to return. Great pace of play, starting at 11:30.
