Shadow Mountain Resort & Club

Staff were terrific! Layout is pretty flat. Greens were tough to judge speed, but rolled smoothly. Would have rated it higher but the bunkers are abysmal. No sand. Packed dirt? Ridiculous. For the price we were charged, not a good value.

Played in mid October. Was one of the first groups off, so pace was a non issue.

Course conditions were okay, it's overseeding season so it was expected.

Biggest complaint was that the rough was very inconsistent, so you get all kinds of not great lies if you miss the fairway. Bermuda rough was patchy at times.

Good track, a little pricey for what you get but it's just about high season. Conveyor belt layout (many holes side by side), so not the prettiest of courses, but does the job.

Lots of grass clippings on the ground that they are leaving as mulch, so can get wet and stick to the bottom of your shoes during the early tee times.

This is an average golf course not much too it.

Both me and my wife played it paid $100 each only worth $60-70 tops.

Me and my wife golfed this course and both though is was average golf course. Not a lot of scenery straight ahead wide open golf holes

We paid $100 each it’s not worth it maybe $70.

Some long prat 4

It's been hot in Palm Springs/Palm Desert over the summer and the course showed signs of challenges keeping the course hydrated. Practice green was a dried out goat track, as was one or two other greens. Most holes were in decent enough condition. Bunkers were more dirt than sand on multiple holes - needed raking or maybe just needed sand - I could not tell which would solve the issue - they were just hard and/or crusty dirt (I spent a number of holes in them, so I can tell you this from first hand experience). We've played this course in previous years - it is decent/average, nothing outstanding or highlight reel in terms of layout, design or views. So, for the money the course is average as well. I would golf here again, however only with a discounted round, not full price. Course staff are super friendly and nice. No water on course - get the discounted 4 water bottles for a dollar each.

Staff needs to be more friendly,the course plays long greens could be better nice lay out

Pace of play was unacceptable given cart technology and apparent marshal on site. Most concerning was the response from staff when I asked to speak with management, from two different employees “ they’re never around, sorry..” unfortunately I left with a negative opinion of course and staff. Hopefully this isn’t the standard you’re shooting for!

Recommend the course for any level golfer. Little of everything to challenge all. Great day of golf.

Awesome day, but only got through 13 holes. Started at 3:10. Pace of play could have been faster, but other than that everything else was awesome. Will be coming back in a few days (earlier time slot). Can’t beat the view as well!!!

I enjoyed the course; I also found it to be quite a fair track. I know I will be looking forward to playing here again, thanks for the opportunity.

Great round. With cart as a 2 some, finished in just over 3 hours. Course is in great shape considering the heat over past weeks.

Staff was very accommodating.

Enjoyed a very fast round in scorching conditions. The course was in good condition but some of the traps were like concrete

Nice course to play. Wide open Fairways with challenging greens. Always enjoy playing this course

Good challenge and friendly staff. Recommend… but play off the right tee box for your handicap.

Booked a round during a trip to see my in-laws. Hundred dollars prepaid for a course that is a $35 Muni, I feel swindled.

It was quite hot on Thursday; but lots of water and I had a fun round.

Tahquitz has long reliable par threes, fours, and fives. To score below 100, you must be able to get off the tees 200+ yards consistently or it will take too many shots, and too much walking, to complete a summer round in a timely manner compounding the heat issue in summer. Not for beginners, or players that can't hit a drive 200 yards.
