Nice conditions, friendly staff!
This is a nicely maintained course with some quirky holes but for the most part pretty average layout. Interesting hole is #9 with the 'island' landing area. Greens were fabulous (fast, true roll, firm) and that made it really enjoyable. Not a long track from tips (6700 yds) with some challenging tee shots from those tees but you better hit it straight! Carts don't have GPS so bring your rangefinder. Driving range you can't really hit longer than 200 yds and is fairly narrow. Quality range balls on the day we played, eg. titleist, Kirkland
2nd time in 2 weeks
I was surprised at the deterioration in green conditions in about a week. Now there are a number of greens with dead grass in large patches. Some greens have been heavily sanded. None of this was apparent a week ago.
Great Course
This course is very well maintained, staff are pleasant and pace was good considering it was full. Value was great but we did receive a great rate.
Certainly want to play again.
A gem in Rancho mirage
Easy to make the reservations. Prepaid 18 holes. Golfed with a very nice couple from San Francisco, who gave us some tips.
Good variation of lengths and difficulty.
They need more players to take care of their divots and hallmarks on the greens.
All in all a nice day, and a nice course. We will go there again.
Cheers,
Nancy
Peaceful Round
The course was quiet and beautiful. The staff and members were uncommonly friendly. Our group was never pushed and we only had to wait a couple of times on the group ahead.
Great Course
A Classic 1970's layout, weel maintained and fun to play.
Golf at Desert Island
Enjoy playing this course. There are some challenging holes which makes it interesting and the day we played the green were fast!!!
Our only complaint is that we wanted to stop for a cocktail after the round but the lounge closes at 4pm and the restaurant doesn't open until 4:30pm!!! Very disapointing.
Not the course I imagined for 150.00. I wouldn’t play it again for that amount. The staff was excellent.
Disappointing
Course is relatively easy: flat, some water carry. Greens are average condition with many difficult pin positions.
Pace of play is fast: we finished in 3:30 with the player assistant still insisting we keep up.
The starter was friendly, but the rest of the staff was not and full of "members only" direction.
Facilites are dated and off course amenities were all closed - nothing like the website described.
This appears to be a formerly private club that is making the transition to a public operation They have a lot of work to do.
Enjoyable Round
Conditions were good. Huge shout out to the staff who let me out early as a single so I was able to fly through the round and beat the rain. Meant a lot after flying down for vacation just to worry I’d be playing in the rain. Highly appreciated. A few holes are scary being so close to the road especially when my miss is left! But no car accidents were caused lol
Friendly staff but average course
Green fees are a little pricey for the condition of the greens. No ball washers at all on the course.
