course

rather poor condition/ Could not believe the cups and flags on the Mountain course/ cups wore out and would not hold flags straight and the cups themselves were absolutely wretched from people digging out balls with their putter

Very poor shape - avoid

We used to enjoy this course but now it’s absolutely atrocious. The greens are bumpy. The fairway is OK. The surrounding areas around tea boxes at the end of the edge of some homes are overgrown and full weeds patchy just total disrepair. The pro shop was closed by 1 PM. There is no cart person selling drinks or food and no idea if the restaurant was open they seem to one person behind the bar but busy chatting with others…. Very disappointed.

Course in rough shape

Played this course 11/18/2023

Indian course was closed. Mountain course had terrible burned greens patchy grass just like the practice green. The royal course just opened but I was told by an owner that the courses weee in terrible shape and the owner of the course doesn’t care.

Shame actually because it would be a beautiful course if maintained properly.

I will see if the overweening changes the playability of this course later in the season.

We played the Mountain/Royal. The Mountain was in horrible shape, the Royal was actually in good shape. The light rain started on the Mountain on the 8th hole and continued until we were on the 7th hole of the Royal.. Also, the golf shop was not open, the bartender had to check us in

“Dead” Indian Palms

Local tribes should petition to have the word “Indian” removed as an affront to native peoples.

The course was in horrible shape. On the 2nd 9 we couldn’t even find tee boxes so we just used the yardage on the card to approximate where the tee box should be. The tee markers we could find were totally different from the first 9. The flags looked as though they had not been moved since the Nixon administration and many were missing tips to keep the upright in the hole.

The grass anywhere on the course was DEAD! You expect to have over seed, winter rye, darn near anything other than just dead.

The people at the course were pleasant enough. The carts were oddly enough, new?!

Other than that…if you’ve seen the movie, “Get Out”, do!

Needs some TLC

Overall, the course was in pretty poor condition. A few of the tee boxes had only one marker, with one without any, the fairways were mainly brown grass or no grass at all and were difficult to hit from and the greens were a mixture of green and brown grass with some bare patches.

Not a particularly good experience which was a shame as the course itself was quite well laid out with some interesting holes.

Needs a bit of attention!

Course

I have played a lot of courses but this takes the cake

The fairways are very dry and hard

Greens need some very tender loving care, very patchy in some areas lot of dead spots uneven speed etc

Tee box’s majority had markers but some had only one marker some and markers missing

At this point this course is not worth the money they need to shut down and spend money to bring it back to the conduit deserves

A Palm Desert golf course with no grass

I booked this course online after reading what a beautiful course lined with trees and beautiful bunkers. When I drove to the first Teebox, I was in total shock. Starting with the Teebox, and going to the fairway, what little grass existed was brown, and very sparse. The greens were no different. You could not make a ball roll straight on the greens because of the mix of grass and dirt. What a disappointment and for $65 a waste of money.
