Pacific Palms Resort

So ridiculously slow!! It was awful, took 6 hours to play here. No marshals or starters anywhere to help move people along. It was terrible. It really takes the fun out of golf having to wait 10-15 minutes on just about every hole. It really takes you out of a groove, especially if you're playing well.

Hole 11/12 temporary green but on fairway with grass just cut short. Hole shortened by 100 yards. Poor!

Went back, after a couple of years of playing this course in a tournament, and played a better round. The layout is a bit different but the overall course is in excellent shape. The only problem we encountered is that some players do not rake the sand traps after using them and ball would end up in their foot prints. Pace of play was great even though there were a couple of new players that were hitting various balls off the tee. All in all we will return to a well kept course with nice grown trees that provide plenty of shade from the hot sun.

All is well. I love playing this course, but the 2 groups ahead of our group was taking their sweet time. We were lucky to finish 18 holes before it got completely dark. We noticed that the group ahead of us would multiple mulligans on the tee box and them blame the group ahead of them that they were slow. Conditions were awesome, But no cart girl that drove around for us to buy snacks or drinks. But I would love to see a marshall moving the group ahead of us to go on pace.

The course was in good shape, not great but good. Greens were in good shape. The course does not provide pin locations and the gps only measures to the center of each green. At times the green was 25-30 yards deep and we had no clue what club to hit, take that and the elevation changes made club selection rough. A few gimmicky holes with blind shots that required local knowledge instead of being laid out in front of newcomers to the course.

Driving range was absolutely trash…mats that didn’t stay down when hitting off of and range balls that should be thrown away. The range grass was artificial turf that was sand color and could never see the ball land or any sort of feel for distance. I wouldn’t play the course again, for the money I’d play another option.

We played the Ike course was in great condition it ran a little slow but it was the weekend. It took 4 hours and 45 minutes but other than that it was a great outing.
