About

Type Resort

Length 6391 yards
Slope 121
Rating 69.7

Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa offers 27 holes of championship golf. Divided into three nines: North, South, and West, the courses are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The South/West Course enjoys the snow-capped Mount Jacinto as a backdrop. Thousands of palm trees cover the rolling terrain and there are six lakes that come into play throughout all three courses. There are also strategically placed bunkers along the greens. The West nine's third hole is possibly the golf course's toughest. It's lengthy at 645 yards and it presents a challenging third-shot approach to an elevated, double-tiered green. The layout offers a few challenging holes but it is still quite player-friendly. In addition to the scenery and playability, another attractive quality is that a round can be played in less than four hours.

Las palmas

Played just after 7:00 am - course was wet in many areas - over watering from night before- some holes are confusing to where the actual go - 100 dollars is to much for this course at this time of the year.

Great Course & Great Value...SLOW PACE!

I grabbed a quick tee time for 1:30pm on a Thursday, for $35.00 in Palm Springs I can't complain too much. The course was great I played the North/West combo. Pace of play started out about average but then we got behind a sixsome and literally waited 10 minutes at our ball between shots. They had at least 3 holes open in front of them and would not let us play thru. It was a very slow round for a Thursday in October. However, I would highly recommend the course if you are in the area, great value and nice.

Fun Course

Played from the White tees, course-was still long. Greens were nice and fast.. I had a little difficulty figuring what was the north 9 holes which seems like it should have been East. My gps was confused also. All in a good older course worth playing.

Nice Course

Above average course. Really nice holes on the back. Course is pretty open, not too tight. And the greens were a little slow but true.

Give this course a try

I was looking for a course to play before my last day out in CA. I saw this course and read the reviews. Course was excellent. Greens and Fairways were in great shape. Some tee boxes need a little more work. The rough was actually very playable. Not deep as one reviewer stated. great. The only problem on the course was on the WEST course #2 (I believe) It is a par 3. There was a horrible patch of standing water off to the left of the green. You get a ball in there, it's gone. The "patch" of water/mud stretched for about 30 yards on that left side.

Everything was a nice enjoyable experience. Staff was attentive and enjoyable.

I feel you'll have a fun time playing the course. I know that I'll be back again to play it.

It was a Good Value. Wash area of West #2 very wet, confused on how to get to Hole 3 Tee without getting stuck in the Mud. Better directions needed

A top course in the area!

This is a beautiful course with a fantastic layout. Yes, there are an above-normal amount of bunkers placed throughout. But, they have real sand (think fluffy) in them, so they play much "easier" that what most of you are used to. (so lame when they are hard pack, dirt, or muddy!)

My only complaint was that the greens were really challenging due to spike tears! Yep, someone was allowed to wear metal spikes and they were twisting as they walked around. Really a shame for all of us following after them.
