Mountain Vista Golf Club - Santa Rosa Course

Love to play here which is very good condition. You must play this course if you travel Palm Desert .

Course only had nine holes open due to flooding and we we’re not informed of that before we paid. We paid for a full 18 and played nine holes in 1.5 hours then they told us we had to wait an hour before we got to start our second nine because they kept sending out new tee times. We asked for a refund because we only played nine and we were told the Golfnow tee times could not be refunded. We ended up leaving and booking a new tee time at a different golf course because the course was so backed up it would have taken us 4 hours to finish the back nine. I understand it’s a busy time of year for this location but the course should not have booked so many tee times knowing that people would have to play the back nine twice and we should have been informed that the front nine was closed before we paid. I will never play here again. If you book 18 holes expect to finish in more than 6 hours.

Beautiful course and well kept, especially in the heat of summer! Tee boxes good, fairways plush, and greens roll true. My only gripe was never seeing a cartgirl/snack person. Bring beverages if you play after 9am!

Play this course - its a nice and fair course. You get what you pay for - no traps or rough, hit the fairway and there is always a chance for par and birdies
Excellent conditions - nothing to complain

Course was in pretty good condition. Fairways & greens kept up well. Tee box could be cut down a bit.
Cold, foggy, misty morning when we played yesterday. Pace of play was great with course being close to empty. We finished 18 in 3hrs 30min, which was great.
Layout isn’t too challenging but not too easy. Its made for senior play, though there were a few tough holes.
Biggest issue is zero food or drink in clubhouse/pro shop. We could only get drinks from cart service which no one told us till the turn. Cart lady finally found us at hole 12. Decent course with zero amenities.

Checked in at pro shop and we were not told it was a shotgun start nor were we told that we were to start at the second tee. Locals passing by us told us to go back to see where we were to start. The pace of play was very slow. The course was in very nice condition.

Great course with nice wide fairways . Well maintained greens trebles and fairway. Only add would be GPS on board. No food or beverage carts. Probably due to most golfers live in community. We had shot gun start which squeezed more golfers in but pace was ok

Greens were lush, putting was tough and amenities great. Worth playing this course and it’s one of my favourites.
Thank you.

Course conditions were excellent and pace of play (4hr 10mins) was also great. Would definitely play again

Got our ahead of our tee time; course was/is in fabulous shape; as always - we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Definitely a must!
