Give it a shot Photo submitted by u091450548 on 09/06/2015
Firecliff
Great experience. Course in terrific shape, challenging and rewarding. Support staff friendly and helpful.
Mountain View
Course was in good shape. Fun layout. Greens on the slow side but not shaggy. Overall very good track.
Aborted round
We cancelled after they wouldn’t allow a “rider”. My son’s girlfriend was visiting for Christmas and we couldn’t leave her alone
Rushed round
Nice course and in good shape. We were paired with two locals who may not have liked each other, so our round felt rushed. Would have enjoyed taking a bit more time to enjoy the round and the scenery. Very pretty course.
5th trip to the desert-Finally played this place
Have stayed at Westinghouse Desert Willows condos 4 times in the past, walking trails near the course and have wanted to play but other commitments made it impossible. Worth the wait and will play again and come back to try Firecliff too.
Fabulous course
We only had time fir 9 holes, but wished to play more, the course was in great shape.
Pair up for COVID
Not excited to be paired up in a cart as a single during the COVID outbreak in San Bernardino County.
Perfect weather
The wife and I played here for the second time, love this course. After their overseeing And reopening we were allowed to drive on the course which is a big help to keep up a good pace. This course is beautiful as are the views. Everything about this course is first class especially the fact that there aren’t any houses. We ended up just the two of us for at least half our round, no time for that story. The one weird thing about this course is at some point during our round we start driving through a parking lot and by a number of condo then back to the course, what ever. The staff is first class, great practice facility.
Good Round of Golf
Desert willow firecliff is always a good round of golf. The course has a great layout and it’s in decent shape. Today was the last day before over seeding so it wasn’t it’s usually green self Greens were a little rough. Staff is always top notch.
Last days at Firecliff for 2019/2020 season turf
It is the last few days of play on the old turf. The Mountain View course is ready and the switch will be soon. The greens are really fast right now at Firecliff. Play is fine in the field. Bunkers are in ok shape. I saw 2 huge coyotes roaming around the 11th hole I think it was. I was really grateful to find sauerkraut for my hot dog at the turn. Thanks for a nice round of golf!
Solid Golf Course
Considering that it is shoulder season, it has been a very hot summer than still continues, and that this course has not yet been overseeded, I would have to say that the course is in very good shape. I imagine that it will be that much better in the winter months to come. The layout is somewhat generous but fun to play, just less so when it is 108 degrees.
DW MountainView
Rode the Purple tees (6507/71.2/128) in 4H, 15M as part of the GK Plays. Thanks to John for setting this up and for Desert Willow for having us out. Very well organized. Overcast, muggy and calm in the low 100's. Played with Daniel, Keith and Kevin, fun group. We all played better on the front and kinda wilted on the back.
Bermuda tees were level, lush and reasonably well maintained for divots.
Bermuda fairways are lush and firm, good to play out of.
Bermuda rough was nice. Semi lush, mowed low and not overly penal.
Sand traps were decently maintained for COVID with good quality sand.
Bermuda greens were okay for late summer. Medium speed, firm with almost no ball marks. Some bare spots around the edges.
Excellent customer service on every visit here, especially Cody, an Assistant pro. Nice GPS on the upgraded carts that have ports for electronics. With COVID-19, no on course services, but plenty of ice/water stations on the course. Nice all grass driving range with a good chipping area & practice green. Fun course, recommended.
