Rating 69.0

The 27-hole golf course designed by Ted Robinson is the centerpiece of Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa. The holes are divided into the North, South, and West nines, which each offer a unique set of challenges. They are played in three different 18-hole combinations that showcase the best of California desert golf. The North/South is the shortest of the three courses. The fairways are wide but lined with swaying palms. The layout can be tight in some sport and a few holes have water hazards but overall it is a very player-friendly course. Mount Jacinto serves as a backdrop to the golf course, providing stunning scenery throughout the round. The course is popular for its playability but it also provides a conveniently quick round that can be played in less than four hours.

No Pressure

It was bumping 100 degrees so there weren’t many other golfers out there which made it very nice.

The staff were very helpful and respectful.

Service Lacking

I checked in with the Pro Shop staff who I found friendly and helpfulI. I then made my way to the cart barn where I stood and waited for a attendant who as it turns was putting with other colleagues on the putting green for about 5 minutes until they noticed Me waiting.After one of the guys came over ,seemingly begrudgingly ,after all I

interrupted the putting game, asked me a series of rapid fire questions like I was on trial or something.This whole curt exchange left me feeling defensive and now generally frustrated. I rolled away in my Cart thinking wow great service, not! .

Maintenance

We played the course for the first time and it was obvious that they have an irrigation issue. The course was over watered on many holes so keeping our clubs clean was near impossible because of mud from overwatering. Also, there were two holes that crews we cutting trees from peoples yards and blocked our shots. Also, a maintenance worker was working on the irrigation in the middle of a hole and he had his vehicle that he used as a block from balls. My wife’s ball nearly hit his vehicle. As the course continued, we crossed a street and a maintenance vehicle blocked the entrance so we had to ask them to move so we could continue our round. Needless to say if was a very frustrating round of golf.

Foreign player

1st time playing this course and to be honest I loved it.

Greens were true and fair with a good pace and fairways awesome! Tried a few bunkers which could do with more sand but you shouldn’t be in them in the first place.

I felt this was a very fair course for a mid handicappers and a fun course for low handicappers to put shots in the areas of play you see fit for your golf.

Slow play

Non existent course Marshall’which led to unacceptably slow playing time due to two groups who should have been monitored 2 hours 20 minutes for nine holes . Back nine after one slow group left and we asked one slow twosome to play ready golf, we played in one hour 15 minutes.we were not in a hurry but taking 20-25 minutes per hole impacts one’s play.

Fun time being the first off

Course was in pretty good condition, one improvement would be ball marks on the greens needing repair. I was the first off for the day and there were 3 to 8 marks not fixed per green. Overall an enjoyable round.
