Disappointing
Reserved an 18 hole round but back nine was closed due to debris in the wash, paid almost as much for 9 holes as for our unavailable 18 hole round. Course is dry and littered with debris from the previous nights wind and not a greenskeeper to be seen cleaning it up. Greens were not bad but dry and fast . Don’t think I’ll play there again!
Worst Place on Earth
What a mistake this was to play here. We could have had a better time in a garbage dump, which would have been cleaner. No grass anywhere, Terrible service and embarrassing to pay to play there. OVERALL THE BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT OF OUR TRIP. Just a pile of crap!!
Cathederal Canyon
All good other than twosome using their ball retriever in every pond. We would have played under 4 hours if they had any sense of etiquette.
Wil play again, starters are great guys!

Terrible PR
We got to the course and was told only front 9 was open because of snow melt. Obviously not their fault. They said pace of play is very slow as golfers are playing front 9 twice and cutting. We asked then that we only o play front 9 and pay for front 9 only Answer was a big NO.
We didn’t end up playing and lost our deposit as well
The course is in poor shape
Unless the rate is lowered, I won’t play it again.
Cath Canyon Review
Pace of play was not managed by Marshall on site. Round took around 4.5 hours. Number 10 green is dead, several others in poor condition. Great old course just needs some management and care.
We played this course several years ago and liked it!
This was VERY disappointing !
We will not play it again .
Trash
This course has gone completely downhill very quickly in the past 2 years.
The rough is strewn with branches, leaves, palm fronds and various other impediments.
Doesn't anyone ever clean up this course?
The fairways were thin to bare with numerous GUR chalked off sections throughout the course.
It seems the workers time would've been better spent cleaning up the rough.
The greens were as hard as rock, especially #10. It hasn't been hot enough in Palm Springs for them to be burnt so i can only assume that someone is cutting them way too short.
And throughout all this as we are heading to the first tee we see the course superintendent on the driving range testing out the new taylor made clubs that were on display that day.
I had made two tee times for later in the week to bring some friends on the course...I cancelled both.
Just too embarrassed .
Great Course for Value
Back nine is way prettier and we thought easier.
We enjoyed for the price we paid and would go back.
