Located in the heart of the Palm Desert in the Coachella Valley, Woodhaven Country Club offers panoramic views that stretch across the San Jacinto and Santa Rosa Mountains. The golf course has a traditional desert landscape but the stunning mountain views elevate it to a truly unique experience. The course has a classic design that is player friendly enough for beginners and even gentle enough juniors. It may not be what you're looking for if you want a formidable test, but more advanced players will appreciate it for a quick casual round. It's also great for working on your short game skills. The golf course is short and tight with immaculately manicured greens. You won't find much water at Woodhaven Country Club except on the 17th, which seems like its nearly all water.

Good course

Great course. My play was constantly being interrupted by the grounds crew mowing and blowing grass. Always check with the course when they are mowing

Awesome value - a great course at a great price

I played here 4 years ago and was NOT at all impressed. That's why I stayed away. Reading recent reviews I decided to try it again. WOW what a difference. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in VERY good condition. The grass on the fairways (all the way to the cart paths) was in extremely beautiful condition. The greens were near perfect and almost NO ball marks! I did spend a lot of time in the sand but even the sand was in great condition with only a few exceptions. The design (including water features} was beautiful. The staff was awesome as well!

I got it on Golfnow.com as a Golfpass member for $30 (using a $10 coupon). WHAT A GREAT DEAL!

Great course

Was my first time playing Woodhaven, and I was pleasantly surprised. Course was in great shape, had a few challenging holes, but was very player friendly. I will definitely play this course again.

Surprisingly Great

The overall course from the back tee’s may be shorter then others in the area, around 5,800 yds, it is still a challenging & enjoyable course to play. Greens & fairways were in great shape & finished in under 4 hrs. Plenty of diverse holes to mix it up and keep it a fun round.

Super Friendly Great Condition

The clubhouse told us the course is under new management from PGA West and you can tell. Fairways and greens well maintained. Pace of play was a bit slow but overall a great little community course.
