About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 71
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.

Potential

So much unrealized potential. Keep your prices low and you’ll have a full tee sheet.

Very Challenging

This cousre is definitely more challenging than led ro believe. Blind shots to the fairways and uphill greens, this course is not very easy to negotiate. You have to hit over some ditches at the bottom of the valleys in the fairways. Some holes have water in front of greens and you either lay up or try to carry over. We played the South and North courses. Pace of play was good. The course is very well manicured and the grass is nice and lush on the fairways. Advanced players would like it. Somewhat difficut for less seasoned golfers and shorter hitters.

Terrific golf course

My husband and I really enjoyed Rancho Las Palmas golf course. This was our first time golfing there, and it was a treat.

The trees are in excellent condition, the layout was challenging. The only negative was the sand traps. Some had been redone with white sand, But there were quite a few with hard packed sand. No fun.

We will definitely return.

Should just close hole 1 north so it does not detract from the rest of the course. It is a mess and when we tried to lay it there was mud all over golf shoes, socks, cart wheels and inside carts. But the rest of the course is amazing! Loved it.

Rancho Las Palmas CC

Older Course, small greens and overall course was in poor condition. Drainage ditch running through course was full of garbage. Driving range was in terrible shape and management was very stingy with golf balls.

Played South and 4-9 holes on West; played PGA West the day before so it was a drop off as far as comparison. Greens were not plush (they were fast but true)Fairways and sand traps were in good condition. Traps must have been replenished given other golfers comments about needing sand. I'm not a good golfer but found South course enjoyable and not overly challenging. Struggled on the West with three of the six holes having 100 yard water obstacles right in front of the green and no bail out areas on left, right or back. It was like hitting to an island green because water in front had no landing space between it and the green. If you are a high handicapper like me recommend the South/North combination. VERY friendly staff

Very poor condition

Because of drain basin on course, you play in muddy soggy conditions. There is not much they can do to fix this.
