Shadow Mountain Resort & Club

we played the legend course at Tahquitz. I wish we could have played the resort, but we did not know it was open. The legend Kors had rough that was really high and rough in the middle of the fairway. The putting greens had really bad burned out dirt spots. The young man at the front desk where we checked it was super nice. But the starter was sarcastic and had poor people skills. He directed us to a cart, and then we got in it and realized it had no key .When we asked for key to our golf cart, he told us to **hold our horses**. That was rude and bad customer service. We like the ledge in Course, but it was in bad shape, and we can’t understand why there were overgrown weeds in the middle of the fairways. We would recommend going to the Resort corset Tahquitz instead, because we have heard good things about it. It was just our luck to not know that it was open the day of our play.

Course greens had burned out dirt spots; rough was overgrown not trimmed to a decent condition. Worst of all was rough in the fairways. Why isn’t anyone mowing? The rough was overgrown and thick that we couldn’t find our balls. We can understand that in the middle of summer the greens will be less than stellar - once on the green i elected to move my ball rather than putt through dirt and very rough bare spots. The check in desk guy had wonderful manners; but when we went outside to get our cart, and there was no key, the starter actually told us TO HOLD OUR HORSES. I couldn’t believe the rudeness. No wonder no one was on the course except us and a threesome behind us whom we never saw again. Good thing is we went out as a twosome and sailed around the course in late July in 3 hours. I didn’t find out til later that their nicer course The Resort was open , was in better condition and only cost $5 more to play than what we paid. If you go, play the Resort section NOT the Legend.

My buddies and I enjoyed our round at Desert Willow. While we chose a very hot time to visit, we are from Arizona so we are used to July weather. The staff at the course was very accommodating offering cold towels and water on the course. They came out a couple of times to make sure we were handling the heat well. Quick stop in the bar afterwards for a beer. Welcomed and treated just fine. We will be back…maybe during a different month.

Everything about the course was enjoyable. It was in very good condition considering the time of year,(middle of July,). Fairways were generous and the greens were hard and true. We played 18 holes in a little less than three hours. What a joy that was!!! Will definitely recommend this course to fellow golfers.

Nice course with shade. 5:40 am start time was great in the heat. For summer , course was in good shape

If it wasn’t for the greens being in their current condition this course is usually one of the best in Palm Springs . I have played here several times in the past and usually find this place to be a great value with an excellent staff .

The staff people that helped my group were as usually top notch . Fairways - tee boxes - sands traps were all OK . Hopefully the greens will start to improve soon .

Course, staff & layout was outstanding.. EXCEPT every green was in bad shape as too many rough or bare spots to putt over. Only reason wasn't a 5 star review

Played resort course. Greens in HORRIBLE shape. Can't believe we paid 75 dollars to play. Course has an awesome layout. Fairways were ok. Will definitely not be coming back.

For the time of year and the heath the course was in a bad condition and the requested greenfee via golfnown was way to mutch!!!

So this was teh last time this summer i played this course!

Wouldn’t recommend this course unless you can get out for a good deal. Hate giving bad reviews but this course had some trash greens.

Green are terrible, putting on dirt and very bumpy.

Bunkers were not even sand, they had mud/dirt.

Fairways are in fair condition at best.

Course is fun just not worth paying full price for when it’s not much cheaper than other courses in the area that are in much better condition.

Staff was super helpful, driving range and putting green were decent.

Course conditions were not so great. Tee boxes were chewed up, greens had a ton of dead spots. Bunkers were a joke.

Bring your bug spray!!! Bugs flying around everywhere!!!

Not recommended if your in the area visiting.
