Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6288 yards
Slope 122
Rating 69.7

Rancho Las Palmas Resort & Spa boasts a 27-hole championship course that serves as the centerpiece of the resort. The holes are divided into three nines and played in three different 18-hole combinations. North/West is a challenging but playable golf course. There is a good mix of tough holes and player-friendly elements. The fairways are lined with palm trees but they are wide and offer some room for error. The rolling terrain is dotted with six lakes, which provide water hazards on a few holes. There are also strategically placed bunkers throughout. The final hole on the North nine is ranked as the hardest hole at the resort. Although it is a seemingly easy 390 yards, the challenge comes from teeing off over a ravine to a narrow fairway guarded by trees and thick rough.

Whole course wasn't open

Played behind a 5some.

Pro Shop didn't bother to mention when checking in that only 17 holes were available to play. I actually quit after 12 holes, after finding out that the whole course wasn't playable. Pretty gypsy. Won't be going back.

We played this course last week. Played the South/West courses. One hole was closed on the West course and no one informed us. Found out when we got to it. The greens were good but the fairways are less than average. Not worth the money they charge for these courses

Poor condition

I played the South and the West. The West is terrible, the 2nd hole was closed and the fairway condition in the first three holes were terrible. In addition, every fairway is lined up with homes. I feel robbed for paying for 18 holes and only playing 17. This course is way overpriced for what it is. If you want a quality golf course, stay away from this one.

Golfing with Friends

We invited our friends to join us at this course. We played the South and West Course. The second hole was closed on the West Course and no one informed us of this. The greens were in decent shape, but the fairways need some tlc. Parts of the track were in terrible shape and some holes were in decent shape. They should be ashamed to charge the rates they do for these two course.

Sadly disappointed with this track.

Dissapointing

West #2 closed due to a washout, 1 and 3 poorly laid out and boring back and forth, other holes just okay. Won't be back.

Disappointed

For $100. A HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT with regards to course conditions, mud, etc… especially disappointing since every other course in the Palm Springs is in perfect conditions.

Wish we would not have played

The course was in terrible condition, but the fairways had recently been overseeded with rye. The greens putted like shag carpets, and even downhill puts would not reach the hole.

I think the course will be very playable in about a month. They should close the course when the conditions are this bad, or just charge 1/2 price.

Needs a lot of work for the price you pay. Greens in rough shape. No ball washers anywhere. Lots of mud everywhere.
