Westin Mission Hills Golf Resort & Spa

Overall I enjoyed the day at the course.

Nice views of the mountains.

There are a few things that could be improved.

The pace of play was slow and we got also started late. No Marshalls to be seen.

The concession worker on the course had to write down every transaction. How outdated is that? And not very safe for our credit card information to be handled this way. The staff person who took us back to the parking lot literally stood there with his hand out waiting for a tip and he didn’t even handle my bags. I expected more from a Westin property.

Ran into 6some on the 8th hole. They let us go through immediately. My guess is the clubhouse didn’t know…. Nice fairways and greens.

Very nice layout and the fairways and greens were in great condition. Off the fairway appears to rarely see water, but that’s okay…try not to play there. Good pace of play and would certainly recommend the course.

Extremely slow round. No marshall on course.

Seemed very unorganized at starter. No balls at the range.

The course shares a name with other, much nicer, courses. So, make sure you know what you’re booking. Main issue with this place was the lack of watering and upkeep. Not expensive though so there’s that.

Used to be a decent course for a decent value. Is now Cathedral Canyon-like. There is NO grass in the roughs. If you are off the fairway you are hitting off hard pan dirt. Ruins the play and totally ruins the aesthetic. Tahquitz Creek is better. I might accept these conditions for $99, but not for the $157 we were charged. Played beautiful Indian Canyons South course three days earlier for $160, a mere $3 more. Played Desert Island today for $100 and it was way better. Used to play Gary Player 2-3 times every year. Will never play it again unless conditions change. And definitely will not recommend it.

The course was in excellent condition. Played 18 holes in 4 hours 15 minutes. There are a few challenging water hazards but they can be avoided with carefully played shots.

With the exception of a few patchy areas in the fringe areas, the course was in good shape and the pace of play was good.

Great layout with potential, but no money is being put into this course to maintain it. The club house and services are also abysmal. Some of the lowest quality food I’ve ever eaten and a long wait because of zero staff.
