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.

Nice course but playing back and forth across the muddy wash lowered my overall rating. Would play again, hopefully once the wash dries out.

Poor

First hole normally par 5 was a par three due to rain wash out. Nobody told us till last second before we started. Driving thru muddy water over front bumper 3 times. Very disappointing for $119

Nice course.

Hole 3 was previously a par 5. Changed to a pat 3 because of drain/rain wash damage. A little hilly but the golf cart made it easy to move about. Friendly staff. No complaints. Would play it again for sure.

Desperately needs sand in ALL of their bunkers. Hard as rock with just a dusting of sand.

Disappointed

The course had suffered damage during the storm and the first hole on the North Course was washed away. In the gulleys there was mud at the bottom. No one told us before we played and I think it wasn’t good value for the price. Staff were very nice, but did not tell us the situation.

Impacted by rain.

Wet weather affects this course adversely.

Parts get washed out.

Course layout & conditions are good otherwise. The lesson would seem to be to avoid just after rain.

Will give credit to the course for notification beforehand - last day in town so didn’t have many options however.

OK Value w/ Notes Below

Due to damage from rains and washouts, this 27-hole course is only playing on 15 holes. The West course has holes 4 to 9 open, the South course 1 thru 9, and the North course is offically closed. Staff will allow you to finish 18 by going to North 7, 8, and 9.

RLP

Although I rated this course as not good 2 months ago, that was when there was only one nine plus 6 holes on the west nine and the south was closed. Now that the south nine is open and the north nine , it’s a very playable 18 in pretty good condition, mostly forgiving fairways but the rough can be very penal , a good test for a mid handicapper from the blue tees. I’ve played this course 5 times in the last 2 months and I’ll play it again.
