Shadow Mountain Resort & Club

Pace of play was great as we were the only golfers except for a twosome that we let play through.

I have played this course in past years and enjoyed it. No-frills course with wide fairways and challenging greens. Resort course does not circle back to clubhouse after 9 holes making it a long day!

This course seams easy, but putting is difficult do to relatively steep sloping of the greens front to back. Also it is fairly long with the shortest mens tee's at 6200 for a par 71 with a slope of 120. The greens are fast and downhill putts will lead to 3 putts. Greens break more than you will read. Keep the ball below the pin to have a good score.

Greens were too fast and the holes were placed in terrible spots. The greens were too fast because the grass was too thin. They were not fast because they were good greens and cut short. Fairways were ok in general. Overall, their courses are normally in much better condition at this time of the year.

One other thing. You can't load up your cart and then take it to the chipping area to practice. I had to unload my cart and carry everything including my golf bag over there so I could keep an eye on everything. I'm 70 with a bad back. I need to be able to sit down every 10 mins to give it a rest. So for this reason alone I won't be going back!

No regrets, wide open course, the pace of play was great. The greens were a bit QUICK but we had a great time and will be back.

A very professionally run golf experience.

From bag drop, thru check in, and thru the Bev beverage cart girl, this course impressed. Well done Desert Willow, a tip of the hat to all that make this work

Had a wonderful time today at Desert Willow

Staff was super nice

Course was in immaculate condition

Challenging holes and also like a few drivable par 4’s if you’re brave enough

Will definitely be back next time in Palm Springs

Liked the layout. Much better than the Legend course
