Length 6333 yards
Slope 124
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.

Fun track

Not overly tough. Need to hit positions and don’t need to be crazy long. Enjoyable round…great course conditions. 236 yd par 3 in the wash is a bit much for most recreational golfers.

The Sand Traps are Awful

I am done with this course. I have played here for several years while on vacation but not since 2019. The layout of the course is marginal with murmurous holes going along or through the wash, but the biggest issue are the sand traps, and it has always been an issue. They are hard as a rock, If you can't take care of the traps then fill them in and plant grass. I will not be back.
