Interesting Course - Good Pace of Play

Got there early and was hoping to hit the range as it is included with the price but I guess they do maintenance on the range on Wednesdays around 10-1 PM. Staff loaded my bags quickly, good checkin. Since we couldn't use the range talked to the starter and he got us out early with a couple from Michigan. Greens were beautiful and rolled true. I really enjoyed the round, pace of play was good, done in 4 hours, saw the Marshall a couple of times. Had a burger at the turn, it was great and ready on time. I have included a picture from a previous time that I played the course so you can see what I mean about the California Gold rough, it does look beautiful and plays well, even the PGA courses here do the California Gold thing here now.

Good condition for the time of year

Course was in good condition for the time of year (just become reseeding). Staff was friendly and quick to get us going. I'm played quite a few courses in the valley and for the next of year this one was the best. They are closed now till early November.

Didn't honor my hot deal reservation

So I arrived 30 minutes early for my Hot Deal time. It was a excellent price $25. I go to check in and the guy says there's going to be a problem. I say what's the problem? He asks what I paid for the reservation, I tell him $25 and he says "I can't let you pay for that price, we've changed the price and now it's $70/ person" . I say "so you're not going to honor my existing reservation?" No answer, unbelievable.
I'll never deal with these guys again! Golf now looks like they are going to refund me but I have zero respect for Indian palms after that!!!

Nice place

Nice place, friendly staff and it is not busy. A bit close to some of the houses but other than that it's a nice track.

Very good condition for Early May

We enjoyed playing the course. We were checked in quickly and out on the course right away. Looks like newer golf carts. There is some desert landscaping but overall the course is pretty wide open. I'm not a great golf (90-100) but I always enjoy this course. There are some challenging holes. Hole 14 has a lake with no water...that's not good, that should be corrected; otherwise, the course was in very good condition. Fairways were nice and green, greens were consistent.

Good Greens and Fairways

Greens were in good conditions and the fairways were nice and green. I have heard that they drilled their well deeper and have been watering more and it shows. Some of the rough is dead which I assume is to save water. Compared to Tahquitz Creek this course was way closer and way better. This is now a Billy Casper course and seems to be well managed. The staff work hard and are friendly.

Nice Day on the Course

Course was in good condition, marshal comes around regularly to keep things moving. I thought it was an interesting layout for a Prairie Golf course, they done some work to change the elevations and there is water on many of the holes. Just as a note there is no driving range here even though GolfNow says that there is. There is a putting green to get warmed up on though.

Things have got to change!

So I own a condo along this course and I usually play it many times throughout the year. I understand this in summer in the desert, but this is ridiculous! Most terrible course conditions I have ever seen. On many holes I could not find a piece of grass on the fairway to put my ball on! Other courses in the desert are in much better condition including Woodhaven and Desert Falls, this is a disaster. I write this review in the hope that things will change at the course. Staff are nice but I won't be returning until they invest some money in the maintenance of this course. Picture is of the "fairway" on hole 5.
