It’s a Muni.

They have two 6 hole loops. To play 18, you go back to one and play the first 6 again. So it’s kinda lame. On the plus side, the staff was extremely friendly and kind. It’s just not what I was expecting, but it is the closest course to Joshua Tree.

Great time for beginners

Tee time was 1:40 with plenty of time for play. For the price we paid the course was great and the pace was no rush. The trees are not forgiving so I recommend playing safe. The greens and fairways are pretty good. We like trying different courses so I know we’ll stop by again especially those specials.

Grouchy Golf Marshall

Staff claimed that my daughter and I drove on the putting greens with our cart. They claimed that they had photos, but would not show them to us! A club member was screaming at my daughter to play when the players in front of us were still in the fairway.

Just OK and way Overcrowded

The course itself is nice and fairly well kept. I don’t feel like they honor tee times very well and allow too many players on the close at once. This causes terrible overcrowding. The entire game you are getting pressured from behind while waiting out in front. Not the way i prefer to play. Highly doubt we will play this course again.

Nice fun course for most levels

We had a hot deal on GN and never heard of this course but for the deal what could we lose. We got to the course and the staff was very welcoming..we started before our tee time due to being open. The course has open fairways and most of the bunkers were in the fairway and not too many green side. The bunkers were a 10/10 all of them were raked soft sand that gave you no excuse to hit a bad shot. These traps were the best traps I have seen in a couple of years except for very high end courses. The greens were very inviting and were rolling very smooth at a great consistent pace. The wind is the equalizer for better than average players if you’re a 10 or under it will probably not be challenging enough for you. I play to a 10 and my friends are very green but I had a great time because I’m about the experience with my friends and enjoying the day more than anything. My play felt like an 83-85 and I shoot a 78 hole on this par 71. I will play here again...

Enjoyed the golf course. A fun and challenging layout. Nice scenery and practice facilities. Staff was very friendly. Only drawback was the pace of play. Otherwise a good value for the money.

Fun and well maintained

I really enjoyed this course, it was a nice change of pace from the overpriced tracks in Palm Springs. It was very well maintained, extremely playable, and the views were wonderful. I played it in the afternoon and again the following morning and it was a little windy both rounds; nothing crazy, just enough to make things interesting. Every member of the staff was extraordinarily friendly and informative. It is a 12 hole course but they allow you to play either one of the 6 hole loops if you want to make it a full 18, which I thought was really cool. All in all, I would highly recommend checking this place out, especially if you’re a mid-high handicapper like myself

OK Course for the Desert

Overall, this was a good course and a fun outing. I went with a friend and we had a good time. I usually play 88-92 on most courses and stayed the same for this one. Pros: The water hazards were beautiful with geese to view also. The tee boxes were mostly flat and the fairways looked quite good also for a course in the desert. Everyone we met on the course was very friendly. Cons: The greens were unusually soggy and very poorly maintained by previous golfers that had left pitch marks all over them. The course seems to be squeezed tightly into a smaller than desirable area. This led to most of the fairways running parallel to each other which led to a lot of waiting for someone to clear your fairway when they weren't even playing the same hole as you. This is also, not a true 18 hole course. It is a 12 hole course and you can play the first 6 holes again to get to 18. I am not in favor of that.

Overall it was a fun outing. We were fortunate to get a deal on the GolfNow app and only paid $31 each for our round. On their website, it says they charge $45 per round. At that price, I would have to say that it isn't worth it.

Beginner course

Greens, fairways, and bunkers are in plus shape especially the greens. Only 12 holes which makes 13-18 dreadfully slow as you restart on 1. I will not play again but if novice golfer that doesn’t hit it long or straight it’s ideal. I didn’t need half my irons.

Bargain basement golf course

Well what more can I say ! It's basically the dollar tree of golf!
Great blt o yeah ! The butter on the toasted bread was game changer and made me play like a young jack Nicklaus!
Could have done with a extra a few holes maybe 6 just to round it to 18. Just throwing some ideas out there
No teas on the driving range ment I was using my game time teas.
Maybe some more speed on carts please
Also the was a weird bird chasing us on the course, I dint mind but my mate was scared

Fun course

The course wasn't too bad and a good way to spend the day. However, there were only 6 holes open, so we played those 4 times each. Luckily, we never had to wait long between 6 hole replay. Hard to rate course with only 6 holes.
