Desert Falls Country Club

Early season (early November) and the rough was 4 inches high. Lost several golf balls that trickled into the roughs, and saw them go in, but could not find them. Cart Path only was a tough walk, as paths only go down one side.

Since course is ready to close for re-seeding, it is NOT in best of shape. Course is extremely brown and dusty due to lack of water. In fact, maintenance workers were actually beginning the scalping process while I was playing the back nine! However the greens were puttable if not slower than usual and the rate was very inexpensive. Also, the sole pro shop worker was very friendly and tried his best to be accomodating.
I love the design and layout of this course, but better to wait for overseeding to really enjoy it.

I don’t really know how to start, the course & clubhouse feels like it’s just giving up. Discounted price which was nice for a Holiday tee time. Arrived little after 6:00am clubhouse closed, restrooms pretty far away from the pro shop. Many times couldn’t tell what was fairway & what was rough.. greens were shaggy. The scenery of the many water features turned off & lakes drained down to yucky sludge. “Hillary” came through a week ago but yet many tree branches scattered around the course. Again.. I’m sure in the 80’s & 90’a this place was the cats meow.. but now it’s a cheap muni course for locals or visitors who don’t know anything & look at pictures online from early 2000’s
I hope someday it comes back & thrives again.

played this course many time. one complaint this time was the ruff on the front nine. too high, spent too much time looking for balls i the ruff on the front nine only. back nine much Beter

The greens and tee boxes were fuzzy but they were tolerable. However, the rough was 6" just off the fairway in a lot of areas. US Open set ups are more fair. I don't know why because there were mowers all over the course. I would like to go back but I won't as long as the rough is that unplayable.

The course was in generally good shape, considering it is Coachella Valley in August. It would be nice to have water available on more holes and consider turning on the AC in the restrooms in the main building. The food/snack bar was not open but that is typical in the Coachella Valley during the summer. The course has water on most holes, the layout is good and will be appropriate for average golfers.

I chose this place because most other courses in town seemed to be aerating at the time of my stay. This place had early times available in summer,The course is in oaky condition, nothing great but Ive played worse. The greens were terrible.From a far they look nice, up close you can see growth of some kind, the ball bounces all around. The man in the club house was very kind, Snack bar was closed, in summer, and no cart person. I do not recommend this place.
