Played Thurs 7/13 , 8:10 am as a 3 some; beat the heat time... 4 hr round. course recovered from the punch... greens true, about a 10 on the stimp and in good shape. Rest of the course in fabulous shape. drinking water all over the course. Bunkers were damp in spots. rough is sticky, so even when the ball is sitting up, you need to respect the rough. I love this course and can't wait to play again.

Played Sunday 8am shotgun, 4 1/2 hr round. Beautiful day. Second time here. 1. the routing is growing on me. I enjoyed much more than the first time. 2. last year, the rough was torn up and should've been GUR, but that seems taken care of now. The fairways here are narrow and the rough sticky, so hitting the fairway is a must. Greens are small and sloped, kind of like pebble. The restaurant is open, and they have a good smash burger. No range. Had a great time, and have decided this would be a great home course.

Played Sat 9am. 5 hr round. COLD day. Love this course. Always look forward to it. BUt I always putt horribly... cannot figure it out. Very grainy greens. Anyways had a great time. The marshalls and starters were incredibly nice. There was one marshall who wasn't so nice... he 'gave a time penalty' to my friend.. told him he was taking longer than 45 seconds to hit, and the course was slow because of him, and it 'ruined the rest of my day'. And he tells him on the 18th tee, as if there could be anything done by then anyways... Seems very out of line. We weren't too happy about that. Aside from that rude interaction, loved it and can't wait to get back.

Played Fri 7/7, 2pm tee time. walked in 5 hrs. course in great shape. mostly overcast day, with a breeze that got stronger as the day went on. This course ends on the coast, so the winds get stronger and colder as the round ends, and worse at dusk. This course for me gets better with each play. Wasn't a huge fan at first, but I think 4 rounds in, it's growing on me. One needs to play it a dozen times, I feel, to be able to score, as course knowledge is huge here, especially the greens.. .what part of the green you need to hit, etc... My biggest criticism and for me keeps it well under its sister courses is I think the greens are too tricked up. Lots of forced carries and lots of wind on the ocean holes. Had fun. Will continue to give this place a chance.

Played Sat 6/10, 8am shotgun scramble. Course in good shape. greens running a slow 10. mostly true. The last 5-6 times I've played here over the last 3 years has been mostly consistent: good muni shape, puttable, if not slow greens, decent pace of play.

Played Sunday, 9am shotgun. It was the 8 inch cup scramble. Only catch was greens were punched 5 days ago. Unbearably slow and sticky... but not too bumpy.. they rolled decent, you just had to hammer it. Left putts short all day, despite hitting them hard. But of course, made a lot of putts in the big cup. The rest of the course was in pristine shape (aside from some maintenance on the alternate fairway of 15. Customer service is always great. Tournament organization is smooth. And bonus, I got a voucher to come back for $300/foursome, at this $200 rack rate course. Best course in the Sacramento area, and a top course in Nor Cal.

Played Sat 7:50 AM, June 3, joined a 3 some; 5 hour round. course in good shape. Greens a slow 10, firm. a little bumpy if you don't fix the spike marks. Bunkers mostly raked and taken care of. Slow round for a 8am tee time. I always enjoy this track when I play.

Played Sat 4/1, 9am tee time. 5 hr round. Beautiful day with GKers alex and roarksown... last rain was 3 days earlier, and no sign of any of the rain we've been having. Greens were punched 5 days earlier, and they are recovering nicely. We got a nice pebble beach sized discount to match (still not cheap!). But they rolled mostly true, slower than usual, not really bumpy, i had one putt moved slightly off line cost me a bird. They should be really good in 2 weeks. The rest of the course was in its usual pristine shape. So overall, a great experience, slightly lowered by the maintenance, but that was more than offset by the discount, great course, and great company. Always feel blessed I get to tee it up at this bucket list course.

Played Sunday 2/5, 8am shotgun; cold morning, hot day. More forgiving than the Firecliff. Not as many bunkers and easier off the tee. Greens seemed inconsistent... front 9 they were sticky, back 9, they couldn't hold anything. Had a great time nonetheless. And course in fabulous shape otherwise. I could play here everyday.

Played Sat 2/4, 8am shotgun, cold morning, hot day. Greens running a slow 11, firm and true. Course in fabulous shape. Wonderful track with lots of bunkers, quite a bit of water in play. I could play here everyday.

Played Fri 2/3, 12pm, 4 1/2 hr round... greens running about a 10, firm and true. Fun routing, typical palm springs layout, but not overly difficult. Course not long... a big dry drainage river runs through it, so several of the holes runs up and down over it. We played the N/S... the W I think was closed, as they are doing some kind of extensive work... maybe a drainage project. The Driving range is not open for the same reason. There were several areas of fairways in disrepair, and we played those GUR. We were comparing the courses to Vegas. This was definitely old school Palm Springs golf... older resort, older course... like the Flamingo, while the Classic club is like the Winn. Desert Willow is like the Bellagio. But overall had a fun time and wouldn't be mad if I played here again.

Played 11/12 Sat 7am tee time. Cold morning. 3:45 hr rd. Pretty interesting fun track in average muni shape. Short course, 6200 from the back (the tips were closed at 6500). A few holes that were short but uphill, so were tough... and a few that had downhill tee shots, including the opening tee shot, which is pretty fun... so it played to the 6200. Greens about a 9 uphill, 10 downhill... bumpy throughout the course. I had a hard time getting the ball to the hole, so I wish I could have a do over on putting. Tee boxes were beat up. The rest of the course pretty playable. Driving range really beat up. It's one of the cheaper options in the area... and it's fun enough to play again. Just don't expect a vacation resort experience like the rest of the area. I'd rather play Poppy for the NCGA price... but this place is great in a pinch.
