All persons associated with course are very friendly and they do an excellent job of organizing and moving play.

Some of the holes on the course are very pretty but others traverse what appears to be a wasteland. Also, the fairways are cut too close to the ground which makes wedge shuts mire difficult for the average player.

Very Impressive!

This may be the most beautiful course in the Coachella Valley. Well designed and elegant. The driving range was off mats, though each stall is organized like a TopGolf module, with couches and a video ball tracker. Pretty cool, though I'd rather hit off grass. Overall, the round was expensive but worth it.

Great Value

Greens and fairways are in great condition, however the bunkers are not. They are not well maintained, so my advice is to just not hit into the bunkers.

Boring greens

Legend course is a very boring layout. The length cannot make up for the flat straight holes. Every green is a simple plane, sloped back to front.

Every single green!

Boring!
