Palms Golf Course is a championship course that combines desert and traditional golf. Formerly called Peppermill, the course is Mesquite's oldest 18-hole course and offers one of the city's most unique rounds. The course is truly like playing two courses in one. The front nine has a classic design with fairly flat and open fairways that give way to tight, tree-lined driving areas. Save for one hole, water comes into play on every hole on the front nine starting with the second, which is the course's no. 1 handicap. Water can be found along the entire left side of the fairways and you'll also face a pair of bunkers guarding the right side and three more behind the green. The elevated tees on the back nine provide scenic views of the desert terrain covered with sagebrush and tumbleweeds, a dramatically different landscape that the previous nine.

Beauty in the desert

This course is in excellent condition. Plays long due to lower elevation. Front nine flat with plenty of water and sand traps to make it challenging. Back nine has many elevated tee boxes with breath taking views. Consistent green speeds is an added bonus.

Fun course with front wide open and back more difficult

This was a great course to play with a variety of holes. The course it self was in ok conditions. It was a little dated and landscaping around course was not kept pristine. We would go back at a great rate.

The back 9 was the highlight of the round

I'm a relatively new golfer (2 years). The front 9 was fairly easy to moderate, but the back 9 was definitely more of a challenge. For the price, the weather and my excitement to keep playing to keep getting better, this course is great. I'll look forward to playing it again.

Course häs a nice back 9.

They could improve on their customers service when you arrive at course. Also our cart ran out of power had to push it back to clubhouse up some steep grades. Clubhouse closed by 5:30 pm on a Saturday go figure.

The Palms Golf books too many tee times

We played this course twice. The first game, we were a duo and waited on every hole behind a threesome. However, we were able to finish as it was Superbowl Sunday and people departed early to catch the game. The second time we played, it was obvious too many tee times were being booked per hour. We were paired up with another duo and we waited on every shot, not just on the tee box. When we were playing the 15th hole, we heard a horn but didn't know what it meant. Then, coming up the 16th hole with at least 45 minutes of light left, the cart manager was yelling from the hill, "the course is closed". He kept yelling at the players on 16, 17 and 18. Then, one cart quit on the 16th hold which kind of sealed our fate not to play the rest of the holes. We were quite disappointed as had seen a sign in the clubhouse the course was open until 5:30.pm. HOWEVER, that obviously doesn't mean players can stay and play until 5:30pm. The course is quitet messy with goose dung but the greens are in pretty good shape. Green fees were pricy compared to Las Vegas and Palm Springs where the courses were also in better shape. Clubhouse staff was very friendly and service-oriented. The cart manager was short-tempered.

Some good views and a BEAUTIFUL sunset.

Hard to find way around. Not well marked for yardage. That said, we were golfing in January, so basically we were happy to be there. Thanks

Average Course

The course needs a little more maintenance. The rough was mostly hardpan with some yellow dead grass. The cart paths were in pretty bad shape.

As for the design, the front 9 had no special design features and was very flat with many geese with their usual droppings.

The back 9 was through many hills and canyons with almost no geese, just some rabbits here and there. The design was great on these back holes with many scenic views and interesting holes.

Mesquite Standard

When planning a golf trip to Mesquite, you should include the Palms. I would consider this the "4th" course you add to a five-round week. There are others which finish higher, but the staff (always friendly) and the relative ease of getting on the Palms is worth the inclusion. Greens were well conditioned given the first week of January. It is an older facility so dont expect a high end clubhouse or dining options. But, for basic golf it is worth the time.

A must play

We played on January 2, 2014. We have played here multiple times in the past. This time was AWESOME. We have never seen the conditions of the course in such good a shape over the last 10 years. The greens are in fabulous condition compared to the other 5 courses in the area. The staff was wonderful and the burgers in the deli were superb. We had beverage service on the course. It is nice to see the ORIGINAL golf course of the mesquite area coming back to the shape we remember it in long ago. The value of green fees and course conditions combined, make this the best value within 40 miles. A definite must play if your going to be in the mesquite area.

good course. entrance road...bring your atv.

Course was good. But, it turned twenty degrees colder and started to rain on the 9th hole. They would not give a rain check for the back nine because we had purchased the round "through an outside agency". Our foursome was the only one out on the course while we played the back 9 in the rain. Others got rain checks. A hot shower and hot chocolate when we got home restored some of our vitals. The .8 mile entrance road into the clubhouse is horrible...if you swerve to miss one pothole you'ii hit three others. Staff personnel are nice.

Course had just reopened from seeding, greens were VERY slow. I am sure the greens will be fine in a few weeks when they cut them down!

Two different nines.

Golf course was cart path only for overseeding, but was really not properly playable. Greens were beautifully overseeded but had not been cut in weeks and therefore unputtable.

Don't do it, not yet anyway...

Just played this course and if I could have got my money back , I would have taken it. The course had just reopened from overseeding and was in average shape at best, they should keep it closed for another couple of weeks and let everything grow in a bit more. The greens were laughable, the grass on them was longer than most fairways I usually play on, putting on them was a joke, and the starter told us they weren't going to cut them for another 2-3 weeks, again I ask myself, why did they let us out on this course. We played this course for $51 including a cart and it wasn't worth it in any shape or form, spend a few extra dollars and enjoy yourself somewhere else.

With a flat front nine and some challenging elevation changes on the back nine it is a fun course to play. Hacker opinion!

It was raining all day but this course is one of my favorites here in Mesquite, NV. Of course it is located just over the Arizona state line, but it is a Mesquite course to me. They keep the course in good shape year round and have a very friendly staff to take care of you.
