JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort and Spa

Played in the afternoon with my son. After 3 kids are free! Great track for a young golfer and more experienced as well.

Greens were a little dry and not perfectly smooth. For the money this course needs to be perfect. Otherwise the course was beautiful.

Multiple people in front of us on the same hole that were playing a bit slow.

was a perfect day. course conditions were great. lots of water on last few holes. would play again for sure.

Great conditions, there are two courses - Palm and Valley. Not sure the difference we played Palm. Pace was ok - we had time to take our time but had to wait 5 mins every other hole. Huge resort, lots of visitors. Great views, a lot of the holes we played were along the main road which is interesting for the price you pay.

The course is in great shape. Both fairways and rough are green plus greens are lightning fast (which we live!).

The course is fairly nice but the upkeep is not what you would expect for a greens fee of over $200, especially in Palm Springs. This is a $120 greens fee in current condition.

Greens were bumpy and incredibly slow. Very frustrating. Tee boxes were not mowed either.

Course is challenging, must know yardage, wind, slope.

Keeps you on your toes

Great course. Very playable. Good pace of play.

Greens wouldn’t rate in the top 5 on the municipal course back in NJ

Tee boxes, fairways, and rough were very well maintained. Course was green and in pretty good condition. Pro shop staff and bev cart ladies were all very, very nice. However, the greens weren't great. My group of 8 guys played SilverRock, Desert Willow (Firecliff), and Desert Springs (Palms) last weekend. Of the three courses, we ranked Desert Springs a distant #3. Greens were a little scruffy and didn't roll very well at least compared to SilverRock and Desert Willow. Bunkers weren't great either. While it's not the fault of the resort, it didn't appear resort guests knew how to rake bunkers. My group was in plenty of bunkers and almost every bunker had shoe marks, divots, holes, etc and was not raked. Desert Springs also had the highest green fees of the courses we played. We had a good time, but we will probably skip this course during our next trips to Palm Springs.
