Westin Desert Willow Villas

Highly recommend both Mountainview and Firecliff! Our group from Minnesota really enjoyed both courses the last week of January! They were in great shape (the driving range was a little beat up) and we loved the practice area, pro shop and lunch on the patio!

You get what you pay for, a Great conditioned course

The course is in great condition. Beautiful grass! Fun and challenging. The course is well maintained and the employees are very knowledgeable and very professional.

Overall nice day

Slow play

Bag drop could use improvements on arriving and after round

Directional signage could be better too

But overall nice course

I played the Mountain View Course on this day. The course was in good shape and the pace of play was roughly 3:40. The greens were a little long but the speed was good and they rolled true. Good balance of beautiful views and challenging golf. I had a little trouble reading the break on the greens, so that was part of thw challenge. The fairways appear narrow but they a pretty forgiving. With a little wind, the course played longer than it looked/measured.

Good conditions overall, greens still settling in, great scenery, good value, recommend. Great practice facilities, helpful staff, great restaurant/bar, recommend both courses. Fairways, rough and bunkers were excellent. I think they replaced the greens on both courses with a different type of grass and it's still settling in. Very firm surface but super slow pace. The green texture was like cow-licks and very frustrating surface to putt on, with very inconsistent stimp speeds. It was like putting with patches of velcro all over the green where the ball would be on line to the hole and screech to a halt around the cup. I'll be back after everything settles in.

Wide open course in good shape for summer, be sure to stay in the fairways and out of the native area. The rolling hills and valleys and uneven lies make it very challenging if you don't.

I had a great opportunity to play the Firecliff course at Desert willow the other day and to my surprise I loved everything about it . The fairways were in great condition, no burned or dried out spots that I’ve witnessed. The greens even in better shape . They rolled very true and were very consistent from the first hole to to the 18th. It does play a little so don’t forget any clubs behind . What I really enjoyed is the fact this course starts with a par 5 and ends with a par 5 . Beautiful picturesque course with a great design and layout . Would highly recommend this course to all …
