Tight short enjoyment

I Play this course 10-20 times every winter. It is tight and short but fair. I would dare say the last two years the course plays the best it ever has by far. Fairways and greens are in great shape. The staff are the friendliest and accommodating that you will find anywhere.

Old style course

Interesting course. Great for starting season , short and very tight. Lots of fencing and nets and close together tees. Need to be very alert.

Shorter than I normally play but some challenging holes. Conditions very good. Friendly staff.

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.
