Used to be a gem

But the conditioning is almost always poor now. The bunkers are unplayable. Yes all courses are wet right now, but they don't seem to have handled it as well as other courses. Very long rough, fairways and tees uncut. I wouldn't mind them upping their rates, spacing out tee times more, and putting the money towards conditioning. It's the best layout in the London area.

Won't be going back

Didn't tell me the greens were in horrible shape from aeration. Then woman at counter very angry and rude that I showed up early for my tee time. I explained that I was in town for an appt. that got cancelled and was only asking if there were any openings. Course was almost empty. She "allowed" me to go out but only this time and said it "wouldn't happen again!". Spoke to me like an angry mother with her child even though I never raised my voice or was disrespectful and just tried to explain why I was there early. Guess what, you're right....it will never happen again. Let me lecture you back: Learn to be a decent person and learn to treat your customers well.

Good playable course

In very good shape, greens on the slow side but ran true, bunkers soft. Fairways wide and greens fairly level so it makes a good first round when you're visiting Palm Springs and haven't played golf in a while. Very pretty course, nicely landscaped. Overpriced at the regular price but good Golfnow deals available.

Excellent, highly recommend

Everything was perfect. The best tip is to remember that every putt breaks to the Salton Sea. The only reason to not play Rams Hill is the drive to get there. Course seems to be in the middle of nowhere. Requires some white knuckle driving for long stretches on severely winding and narrow mountain roads. The drive is so unpleasant that it will make me think twice about playing it again, especially if leaving after the sun goes down.

Decent course

Nothing special but okay way to spend the day. Greens were fairly flat, average speed, many ball marks. Fairway bunkers in poor shape. Friendly staff. Surrounded by mountains but little elevation change within course. Gets dark and cool long before sunset due to mountains.

Eagle course highly recommended.

Eagle Course is quite challenging, narrow with very interesting greens. Very good condition. Excellent design, rolling fairways though on flat land. Great price through golfnow. Highly recommended!

A few decent holes but really nothing special. Not sure why it's rated so highly. In decent shape.

Nice surprise

First time on this course, was pleasantly surprised. A lot of very good holes to keep your interest, one or two goofy ones. Challenging and long from the back tees. It was in good shape overall. Great deal on golfnow, maybe overpriced at regular green fee.

my favourite course

Best course in Canada that I have played. Every shot is challenging and interesting. Every hole very different from every other. Dramatic layout will punish poor shots. Tough greens to putt well. Don't get in the pot bunkers.

very average

I'm not sure how this course got rated in the Top 100. Not that interesting a design and the conditioning was what you'd expect from an average muni. Just an average course in a nice area but the green fees are a little higher than they should be.
