solid round

enjoy this track. Staff was great from the pro shop to the assistance to the encore Marshall. They even provide wet towels during the round and toward the end, which is a nice experience.

Track is solid and pace play is good. Greens are in great shape. Great place to play especially in the summer. Practice facilities are good as well.

They also offer shuttle service between the desert, Willow Westin, and the course

Awesome course. Bunkers need more sand.

More sand in the bukers. Other than that, the course is top-notch.

WOW! GREAT EVERYTHING. Better conditions than Indian Wells and PGA West Stadium. I was blown away at this course. It was my wife’s favorite course that we played this week. For reference I am 6 handicap and my wife is a 26. I played the two tee’s and she played the front.

Excellent all around

The course was an immaculate shape. We played in the early afternoon and finished in 4 hours and 10 minutes.

We will be back when we visit the desert.

Great course and even better mountain views.

Everything was great. Just be watchful of the nature as I came close to a bobcat that was just 10 feet in from the cart path. A bit scary. The bobcat didn't take much notice and kept moving within some shrubs.

Change of course

This is a very nice course. The amenities are good for practice and play. I was paired up with some nice people and made the round pleasant.
