SilverRock Resort
Played On 05/20/2019It's a beast!
My wife and i have played Silverock before but this was the first time since the new holes were introduced. Each time we play we find it a real challenge but it is a great course and a privilege to play. It is unlikey to make you feel you have mastered golf but if you want to test yourself, this is the place!
Indian Springs Golf Club
Played On 10/03/2018Great, as always
This is one of our go to courses when n the region. Always in great condition and a fair challenge
Desert Falls Country Club
Played On 09/25/2018Good challenge, very dry
This was our first time playing Desert Falls and as it is the end of the summer it was very dry. They are obviously getting ready for overseeding which made it an extra challenge but also made it inexpensive. It was also empty, so millionaires golf! The course is challenging with lots of undulation and large greens. We look forward to playing it again when it is green!
Mountain Vista Golf Club - San Gorgonio Course
Played On 10/15/2017Slow this time
We played this course twice within a week and it is a great course and good value for money but this time it was sloooow. The other course at Mountain Vista was closed for overseeding and it was a Sunday afternoon so it was to be expected but even so it was slow.
It has not put us off the course but we would think carefully before playing at the weekend in the afternoon.
Mountain Vista Golf Club - San Gorgonio Course
Played On 10/13/2017A good challenge at any price
We've seen this offered many times before and for some reason have not gone for it. That was a mistake as this course is great. It's mostly pretty flat but has nicely elevated greens that were very slick when we played it which made it difficult. Add the significant amount of water and you have a real handful (and there was no wind when we played, even tougher if it was blowing, I am sure). Well worth a go
PGA WEST Greg Norman Course
Played On 10/12/2017Real desert golf
Our first time at the Greg Norman and we got it for $45 which was a bargain. It's a great course but if you do not like lots of sand and desert areas then it is probably not for you. You need your A game here but it is beautiful and a joy to play on.
SilverRock Resort
Played On 10/08/2017Tough but worth it
We have played Silverock a few times and it is always a challenge. Right now they only have 9 holes open and it was about to close for overseeding but was in great condition. Always worth a go at the right price, but as stated earlier, not for the faint hearted
Indian Springs Golf Club
Played On 10/07/2017A personal favourite
This is a really fair course that is always in good condition. It was about to close for three weeks for overseeding but was still in great shape. Our favourite course in the area as it is not the most challenging but always great to play
Royal Ka'anapali
Played On 10/05/2017Never again
I guess we are spoilt as we play most of our golf in the Palm Springs area where there is a lot of choice and always good value, good golf to be had but my experience at the Royal was poor and I will not play it again.
That is quite an achievement for one of the prettiest courses I have ever played but to end up spending a lot of money and end up behind two 5 balls is just not good enough.
I spoke to the guys who service the cart who said the 5 balls play every week and that I should take it up in the pro shop. I did and they said that it was the Seniors skins game and that they are supposed to move on pretty quickly - they did not and frankly any course that allows a 5 ball is not a golf course and is not somewhere I would be willing to visit again.
Maui Nui Golf Club
Played On 10/03/2017Really enjoyable...
This was the second course we played on Maui and it is a big step up in quality from Pukulani. The front 9 are more challenging than the back but both are a good test of golf and both are in great condition. I played from the blue tees and a couple of the tee shots were blind which was interesting. A great course and very good value at the $66 we paid.
Pukalani Country Club
Played On 10/01/2017Good value for Maui
Not the best course we have played but it was only $50 which is low for Maui. It has some challenging holes and is worth a go. On the day we played the greens were very slow, which was probably the low point but we would p!ay it again as it was fair value.
PGA WEST Jack Nicklaus Tournament Course
Played On 09/22/2017Indian Springs Golf Club
Played On 09/21/2017Great as always
We play this course when we visit the area. A good fair test of golf and it is always great. Highly recommended
Heritage Palms Golf Club
Played On 05/25/2017Nice course
This was the first time I had played the course and all of the reviews I had read said it was enough of a challenge but fair, especially for intermediate golfers like me. That was exactly what I found and I will play again here for sure. My only criticism of the course is that the greens were not at their best after some maintenance but they were still pretty true and I have certainly played on a lot worse. I look forward to playing here when the greens are better.
Indian Canyons Golf Resort - North Course
Played On 05/20/2017Nice curse, fair challenge
If you want something that is not too hard, in good condition and interesting then this could be a good choice for you. The course is nice, not too hard and not too easy. It is a rest course among the houses but they are set well back and interesting - well worth a visit
PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course
Played On 05/16/2017Beautiful and tough
We had heard a lot of good things about this course, especially the back 9, and they were all true. The front 9 is challenging and similar to the Dunes course which we had played before. The back 9 is amongst the mountains and has lots of challenge including areas that I can only describe as lunar.
It has spectacular views and well worth playing but make sure you hit straight!
Shadow Hills Golf Club - North Par-3 Course
Played On 05/14/2017What a fun and challenging place
I've never been a fan of par three courses but we had heard really good things about this course. They were absolutely right. It is a great course, really pretty, challenging enough, and really good practice.
We happened to play it on Mother's day and we never saw anyone else.
The staff at this course and the South course are so friendly, i cannot recommend it highly enough. It is also a pretty quick round of golf (especially when you have the course to yourself). So if you fancy a quick and challenging 18 holes, look no further
Shadow Hills Golf Club
Played On 05/08/2017Great, as always but those greens...
My wife and I have played here a few times but had not done so for the previous couple of years. The course is a fair test of golf at our level (20 handicap) with a real sting in the tail with the greens. They are mostly elevated, all of them slope and they were very slick - made it a really interesting round. The staff are exceptionally friendly and we always feel really welcome here - highly recommended to all
Palm Desert Resort Country Club
Played On 11/13/2015Scrappy
This was the first and probably last time we played this course. It was in poor condition, especially the front 9. Poor fairways, very slow greens.
It has some good holes but most are pretty average and it has nothing to really attract us back.
Thank you for your review. We apologize for the poor experience you had with us. New management has been working to improve upon the conditions of the course and we hope you will come back to see the improvements that have been made.
Indian Springs Golf Club
Played On 11/11/2015Still great
We have played Indian Springs quite a few times over the years and it has always been in great condition. The same was true this time but as it was just after overseeding we could not take carts onto the fairways - they allowed carts in the rough so inconvenience was minimized but personally I like it when they look after a course.
This is a very fair golf course. Not over long but it has its challenges and a few really great holes.
We met the new owner, who was charming, and we will continue to come back as we always have.
Great! We're glad that and your wife both enjoyed our course and the challenge of our layout. We appreciate your review and we look forward to having you both back again soon!
