Located in the heart of the Palm Desert in the Coachella Valley, Woodhaven Country Club offers panoramic views that stretch across the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa Mountains. The golf course has a traditional desert landscape but the stunning mountain views elevate it to a truly unique experience. The course has a classic design that is player friendly enough for beginners and even gentle enough juniors. It may not be what you're looking for if you want a formidable test, but more advanced players will appreciate it for a quick casual round. It's also great for working on your short game skills. The golf course is short and tight with immaculately manicured greens. You won't find much water at Woodhaven Country Club except on the 17th, which seems like its nearly all water.

Outstanding course

We had a memorable first time round at Woodhaven. Outstanding service, friendliness, professional from top to bottom. For the course itself. I think 4? different tee choices. Tee boxes were in excellent shape . The fairways were impeccable, and forgiving for our skill level, better golfers can score here. The greens were some of truest roll I have encountered. Every hole was a scenic postcard. A truly great experience!

Enjoyed it

It was the first time my wife and I had played the course. The pace was a bit slow at times but we were still were under the time required. We will likely play it again.

Golf shop staff and cart staff were fantastic. Kind and helpful.

Great course!

This is probably one of the best courses I have played at. The fairways are wide and have a lot of room for error. The course was well maintained and the greens were excellent! Overall good course!

Nice middle of the road course

The course is pretty short, but there are several challenging holes. Course is in good shape, staff were very helpful and friendly.

Nothing special

For the price, this course wasn't great. Course conditions were good, but the layout isn't particularly challenging or interesting. The price was well above other nearby courses that were more fun to play, with more diversity of holes.

Great Course and Value

If you are looking for value golf that is challenging, try Woodhaven. The 4 hour round will give you great views and some difficult features. It’s a tight course, with greens located near tee boxes. In good condition and you can’t beat the price!

Unlucky on Windy Day

The staff we encountered upon getting our cart to checking us in were super lovely people and very friendly.

Pace of play was rather slow, but no big deal. Beautiful course.

Unfortunately the wind really picked up so we decided to play just 9 holes.

So we went inside for a delicious margarita.

Overall, we would recommend this course for sure. And I hope to be able to get back and play the entire course.

Great round with friends

We vacation in the Coachella Valley annually and were looking for a different course to play. We made a reservation at Woodhaven and were glad we did. It is a very nice course and we completed play in 4 hours. It's not a course for big hitters but it fit our games well. The perimeter of the course is lined by houses but they weren't close enough to worry too much about hitting them.

That course has a bad design, you have to leave the cart far from the greens, very very dangerous.

Excellent Choice to Start a Coachella Valley Golf Vacation

Woodhaven Country Club was in excellent condition. It’s not particularly long, but the holes are interesting and the difficulty level is just enough to keep you on your toes. We finished our mid morning round in under 4 hours with no waiting.
