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.

Palm Spring Trip

staff never around. Starter very nice man. No cart person. No one around to help with bags or help with how course goes. Pace of play was very good. The course very challenging but like how it played. It was good that we played with someone who knew the course.

Palm Spring Trip

The young at the course was very nice and courteous. Was very helpful with bags and explained where everything was located. Also tips of the course. The course is hidden but really very well kept and fun to play.

First Time Playing

Shortish, but very enjoyable for older players who don't generate the club head speed to take on longer courses.

Built in the late '50s and probably hasn't changed much over the years. Tight little par 70 kept in good condition. Surrounded by older homes, also well kept. A bit like stepping back in time..but I enjoyed it so much the first time that I'm going to play it again this week!

Challenging approaches at Shadow Mountain

Great course for honing your game. Accuracy off the tee and thoughtful approaches required.

greens are slowish but true rolling.

fun to plot out your trip around the course.
