Beautiful layout, challenging Par3 course!
Tee boxes and greens could be maintained better..
Although the greens are consistent so it was easy to predict the speed and breaks..
We will be back for the quick round and practice the accuracy.

The green was little slow buy all consistent.
It was supposed to be the cart path only that we know about it through online. They let us drive cart only on the rough area so we kept our cart on the border line to the nice fairway.
Since I had bad knee problem for walking too long, the course decision helped us A LOT that we did not have to walk across the wide fairway with multiple clubs. The weather was high 70's, the pace was perfect. The view of the ponds with flower trimmed edges were very pretty.
The rate was very reasonable due to the "just opened up from the aeration".
The other courses in Palm Desert charged full rate ($180's) even though they are still car-path only condition.
We'll be back again!

We arrived 40mim prior to our tee time at 2:30pm on Sunday. At the check-in, we were told that the the Disc Golf tournament's time is behind so the guy at the desk gave us the free cart. That was great.
The last group of the Disk Golf cleared the #1 green around 3:30pm.
Upon the frustrated teeing off, we still had to wait almost each holes as we're golfing, and ahead of us were basically playing a "Frisbee".
At the hole #6, two groups were waiting ahead of us. It could cost us anther 20 to 30 min of waiting.
The three of us did not have any patience to wait so we decided to quit at the hole #6.
We complaint at the desk about this extremely terrible experience, but the guy at the desk gave us the credit without any fuss!
We were glad at least we received the credit to play an another day. (not that we liked the course)
The other player who joined us did not talk to the desk so he just lost his money.

Well, the course condition?? Not that great. There are many large dirt spots and large weeds on the fairway. The tee box conditions were pretty bad and the green had a lot of damages and diseases.

We won't be coming back without the credit check.

It was not good annual Mother's day golf-outing at the Tustin Ranch.
The check-in was very pleasant greeted by a polite young man at the desk. He let my daughter use their putter as she forgot it at home.
The Starters were rather unprofessional gentlemen overly chattering each other with their personal matter.
There were no players ahead of us but we as foursome had to kill our time at the first tee for 15 min. (the practice green right next to the 1st tee did not have any holes). The reason was "IT IS THE POLICY, WE CAN NOT LET YOU START BEFORE THE EXACT TIME".
The course layout was beautiful.
The fairway was very poor not reflecting their rate at all. The greens were so sad; had too many divots and sands.
After the few holes done, the twosome behind started hitting up on us very close that a few times the balls came up very close to our feet. From time to time, they were behind us around 200 yards or so but it's normal. We finally saw a Marshall driving so we wanted talk to him. He waived at us so we loudly tried to take his attention several times. He probably couldn't hear us so just drove away.
On back 9 some hole, the Marshall came up to us said we are too slow. We finished front 9 in less than 2 hours. The couple's handicaps that we hooked up are 10 to 12, and my handicap is 19. We were ahead of standard pace. The Marshall (his name was ART) told us "look at behind you, they are waiting for you so play faster".
We explained we tried to take the Marshall's attention to complaint about the men behind us. The Marshall (ART) told us "Do not argue with me I am the Marshall here" He loudly shouted on us "DO NOT ARGUE WITH ME". We thought "were we argued????

What an awful experience we ever had at the rate of $150 to $170 course with the Marshall's statement of "Do not argue with me". It was very upsetting golfing day at the Tustin Ranch GC.
It was very sad that this course is our neighbor in OC.
. .

Our 1st tee off as a foursome started by the arrogant chatty starters who made us wait to tee off on the tee box over 10 minutes because it was not the exact our time yet. There is no one on the fairway or green at all. The course condition was rather poor for the amount I paid ($130 May Sat. afternoon) but layout was good.
On the 10th hole, the Marshall came up to us and told us to PLAY FASTER as the golfer await us behind over 200 yards or so. They had been hitting up on us from time to time because they were 2-some, then became 3-some. Our handicap average was under 15 as one woman's handicap was a single digit.
The Marshall named "Art" told us "Do not argue with me! Just play faster!! Look behind you! They are waiting for you guys!!!" It was yelling. We tried to tell him on the front nine; trying to complaint about 2-some behind hitting up on us. He just drive away ignoring us or could not hear our loud call.

We had such a bitter terrible experiences. :-( :-(

We did not know this course had only per 62. Some hole is weird 186 yard Par 3.It has a wavy car-path towards all the way to the green; on the line to the flag. It was very difficult to focus to the green for tee off.
Fairway is very sad. It is mixed with many kind of weeds and bumpy. Many bare spots were stopping a golf ball for run.
We will not return to this course.

Our tee times are always on the weekend morning. There are always large group of players - they probably join as one after they tee off as Five some - play LOUD Rap music, drink their alcohol and park their carts by the green. They are loud with foul mouth and very despicable and eye sour.
No stuff member control them.

We had to repeat 9 holes twice. It was not mentioned when our tee time was made. The second 9 was terrible. At the 10th hole, 3 foursome were lined up at the tee box. The starter was nice enough told us to skip couple holes. The group ahead was upset seeing us to skip; been behind them. We were fortunate enough that a twosome let us join them.
We didn't pay too much for $24 walking, but we paid for a cart for $10 per player. Overall, we have decided AGAIN that we'll never go back again. It was as bad as 5 years ago: sick greens and not maintained fairways.

I reseaarched all courses in Palm Desert before making the tee time online. Many are "Car Path Only" but this course did not have a NOTE when I made a tee time. It was a very dissapointed round. 3 of us had to take several clubs for the fairwasy shots as many golfers know. It took us 5.5 hours to complete 18-holes as the foursome in front of us were not ready for the Carpath Only situation.
The course condition was very good. We always don't care the guy awaits the golfers at the last hole car path to just wipe the clubs. We wished we have known the Carpath Only Rule before the day of play as we don't like it.

The name "Classic Club" indicates the course's quality and design which make this course different from the other good courses. I strongly recommend this course for the golfer who seeks outstanding quality of fun and new experience in the desert. You will not see any condos or houses along the fairways and greens. The natural beauty was fully enhanced throughout the course and I really wished to have a picture taken on several holes. The greens were very true and the fairways were just gorgeously maintained. As long as you keep your ball on the fairway, you'll have a good score, but many bunkers and water keep your focus away from your game. All of us enjoyed a 3-putts of challenging game in a nice breezy desert day!

We play Brea Creek often before the championship course game. It has good par 3 holes that I have to carry my ball to the small green as have to clear the creek. The green is OK. The overall course condition has been always improving a little bit at a time ever since B. Casper took over the management. The staffs are very friendly and the rate is great for what you get.

Their rate is super good so I was not expecting the super good condition or beauty of the course. My husband and I were very surprised for what we saw when we arrived at the club. It was spacious and the course was beautiful. The rate is less than the half of Kaanapali's and the view is a LOT better. The green condition was true; as good as the resort courses and the ground was perfectly landscaped and maintained. The course had a veriety of design to meke a game more fun: blind spots, raised green, wide view and of course: trees. We were little mad about a few rude stuffs at the biggest resort course in Maui where I paid about 4 times more than this course. They were snotty and even didn't remove our bags from the cart as our starting time was probably the twilight time at noon. On the other hand as an opposit, the stuff at this course were rather very friendly; not SO agressive. The one just came to clean our clubs and put them on the rack while we were at the rest room. They even didn't come back for the tip.
The club house memu was rather simple and reasonable, but they had their local menu which made our visit a lot more fun and enjoyble!!!
We will surely go back to this course next year before playing at Kapalua courses!
