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.

Great value

Woodhaven offers a solid track with enough challenges for an intermediate player. Good practice range and short game area. Nice staff. One negative is the greens need repair from ballmarks.

Pace of play was very good even though we were one of the last groups of the day. Some rough patches on the fairway that need to fill in but otherwise in very nice condition.

I love this course

My friends and I play this course whenever we visit from Kansas City, it is a very friendly course. I scored a 78 the first time I played Woodhaven, have had back surgery since then. But I still love playing this course while in recovery. We plan to come to Palm Desert every year, will get a tee at this course.

Fantastic course

Course was in great shape. Fairways and greens beautiful. Pace of play was slow, had to wait on every shot but starter let us know this info on the first tee, so we were aware. Definitely worth the money.

Over Booked Course

First and last time here. Arrived an hour before tee time of 1200. At 1250 was informed by the starter on the first tee there will be an hour delay. Money was refunded. A day in PS wasted which costs more than the green fee. First time in fifteen years of playing in PS at any course I've had to ask for a refund. Golf now refund not requested.

Hello. Thank you for reviewing the course. We apologize for the delay of play. This is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We work hard to accommodate everyone who visits our course and to best control pace allowing everyone to finish in a reasonable amount of time. We will continue to look for ways to improve. Thank you for choosing Woodhaven Country Club. We hope to see you again soon.

Fun course, but way too SLOW

This is a short, straightforward course that should really play much faster than it did for us yesterday. For 18 holes, we waited on every single shot, both from the tees and from the fairways. Our group was joined by a single early in the round, and even as a 5-some we still waited on every shot. We ended up finishing our round in about 4:15, which doesn't sound as bad as it felt. Given the length and difficulty of this course, a competent foursome with carts could easily play this course in under 3 hours.

Nice course

Only played the front nine but it was in great shape and a nice layout. Play was a little slow but not bad. I would love to go back and play 18.
