Great Course But Weather Stopped Us Short
We travel to Palm Desert every 12 - 18 months and have played this course before. It is always in pristine condition and well managed. Our recent trip was no exception. However, this time we scheduled a bit early and the hot weather was not yet over. So in 107 degree heat our foursome decided to call it a day after we finished the front nine. If you schedule a visit in cooler weather though, I would highly recommend that you include the Marriott Desert Springs in your courses to play. We will return!

Sunday fun in the heat!
All of the staff I dealt with were very friendly. The course was in great shape...greens played slower than most local greens. I would definitely play here again.
