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.

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.

Beautiful views

Playing in 75* weather while looking at snow capped mountains is amazing. Very good shape. Greens rolled true although not a lot of break. Joshua in the clubhouse was very helpful.

Not bad

I played this course on a hot deal and it was worth it. If it was full price I’d say no. Basic desert country club layout, a couple funky holes because of the wash and one hole was made to a par 3 in the wash. All in all for what I payed, wasn’t bad.

Too much mud

Ditches come into play on many holes, with mud everywhere, as a result of recent rain storm. Greens were great and most fairways. They had to convert a par 5 to a par 3, because of mud.There was no parking because of a tennis tournament. They made us park offsite, and had to take a shuttle to the course. As a result we were late for or tee time.

Canadian

No one on staff said anything about the 1st hole on the north course being almost completely washed out , where you end up playing a par 3 from about 135 yards, instead of a par 5 , just over 500 yards. Found out from the members I played with as we were driving down the cart path. The fairways were in good shape, except for the few holes that that had steep elevation, where the fairways were washed out mud and sand. Too many blind shots on the north course. Had no choice but to play the north and south 9 hole course, as the west 9 holes was washed away. The south was much nicer to play than the north.The rough was green and thick, and difficult to play. Greens were just average, very bumpy, inconsistent,and sparse in places.The south side had more interesting, and picturesque holes, but far too few for me to recommend this course to anyone. Even though we finished at a little over 4 hours, the pace of play was frustrating. There are many old timers playing this course who cannot hit the ball well. So to wait for players dribbling their shots 50 or 60 yards down the middle , was very difficult to get into any kind of rhythm. Save your money and find somewhere else to play.

Nice Course!

We played on the day after it rained. 3 holes were shut down but the rest of the course looked great! We had time to play a few holes twice to get a full 18 in. Finished in about 3.5 hours on a Tuesday. Stopped for a breakfast sandwich at the snack bar and man was it good! Great course to play on a weekday
