First time playing at Marshall Canyon and I came away impressed. It's not the longest course out there but you need to be accurate off the tee and for many holes, it does not require a driver at least for me.

A particular aspect of the course that most stood out to me was the greens! they were incredible. very fast downhill but very slow uphill. quite the stark difference

the layout of the course was very good, there were a couple of holes that you can be very aggressively on your tee shot or play it back to a safe distance. I went aggressive on a couple of holes and it paid off for me but my partners tried and failed a couple of times losing their balls.

Never had known about this course but i would come out and play here anytime.

Played Casablanca on 10/21/22 as a practice round prior to a tourney at Falcon Ridge on 10/22/22.

Was pleasantly surprised by this course. I would agree that it is very flat but our foursome really enjoyed it.

The fairways were in the middle of an overseed so there was no roll whatsoever so they course was playing very long.

Greens were medium/slow but rolled true.

The rough was that fluffy rough so you needed to catch it just right.

Next time I come to Mesquite, this will be a course to consider.

Played Redhawk on 9/17 for the first time in 12 years. I wasn't expecting much and my memory of the course was vague at best. I came away very impressed with the layout and conditions of the course.

I would definitely play this course again. The layout was very good, had a couple of funky holes (wasn't a fan of 1 and 18) but the par 3s were very good especially number 8 with the island green.

Greens and fairways were in really good shape. Greens on the slower side but not too slow. There were some patches of rough a foot deep that was nuts.

If the drive wasn't so far for me, it would definitely be on my regular list.

Played Silverrock on 8/24 and played Indian Wells the day before with a gentleman who said that Silverrock was not in good shape. He was right!

I'm sure the condition of the course has a lot to do with the construction going on around it and it will get better once the construction is complete...in about 5 years or so!!!

Love the layout, played with a local that had a great suggestion of switching the nine because the 18 right now is quite disappointing with a 282 yard par 4. The 9th hole is a really great hole and very demanding.

I probably won't be back anytime soon until the construction is completed. Too many options in the Palm Springs area.

Played the Celebrity course on Tues 8/23. Both of these courses are so well maintained. By far, the greenest courses in Palm Springs area.

The layout was phenomenal with a great mix of holes, a great variety of clubs off the tee box.

Greens were medium speed and rolled true.

I was amazed at how many waterfalls there were, I felt like every other hole had one.

Played with a person who knew the area and he told me that the designer of the Indian Wells courses also designed Eagle Falls in Indio which is another one of my favorite courses out there.

This will be on my list to play every time out to Palm Springs!

First time playing El Prado (Chino Creek) on 7/31. I didn't come in with lofty expectations and the conditions were about what I expected. What I didn't expect is the nice layout of the course. I really enjoyed many of the holes on the course.

The greens were solid, rolled true at times a little bumpy.

Fairways were mostly solid as well.

Being off the fairways was the dicey play as you didn't know what you were going to get. Dirt? weeds? rough? You got all of the above and it just was a matter of how bad it was.

I was able to get out with my son and some friends and we really enjoyed ourselves. If an invitation came again, I would definitely play El Prado again.

Had a chance to play this course in a tourney a couple of weeks ago. I thought I had played all of the Los Angeles golf course and lo and behold, I missed this one.

The layout did not suit my eye that much but I was playing well so I was able to overcome holes that would normally give me trouble, namely the holes that required less than driver off the tee.

Greens were a bit deceptive in that you could knock them well by the hole if you were above it but took a good stroke if you were below the hole.

I probably would not play it again because of the drive and the fact that you only use the driver a few times.

The condition of the golf course was pleasantly surprising.

Had a chance to play Bear's Best in Vegas last week. It's been on my bucket list and was not disappointed, everything from check in to the post round drink was awesome!!!

The layout speaks for itself as it takes 18 holes of Jack Nicklaus' best work. The black sand was really cool. Great mix of holes that are short and some that are going to take two good shots.

The greens were much slower than i imagined and there wasn't much break to them. We kept overplaying them to start until we made our adjustment.

I do plan on coming back to play this excellent course again. Hopefully sooner than later!!!

Was invited to play Hacienda on 4/15/22. Heard incredible things about this course and it did not disappoint. Instantly, one of my favorite courses in Southern California.

The layout was near perfect, very challenging but playable. I would highly advise playing the correct tees on this course because it makes a HUGE difference. We played the blues and two guys in our group probably would have been better served playing whites.

The greens were rolling 11.5 today so basically you couldn't find yourself above the hole and not 3 putt. the green rolled so true near perfection.

while the rough was thick, it was very grabby and you had to pick it clean to get it going.

the staff was incredible nice and it was cool to use the guest lockers, made me feel like a million bucks! lol

if you get the opportunity, run dont' walk to Hacienda!!!

Played in a tourney on 7/3. This is my home course and it's first time playing in well over a year.

I was pleasantly surprised at the condition of the course. Fairways in good shape, sand was in good shape, the rough not terribly penal. I noticed a few trees were removed, most noticeably, the bush/tree to the left on Hole 7 has been removed exposing the tee box on Hole 8. I think a nice improvement.

I was disappointed in the greens. They were markedly slower than I'm used to here. I kept leaving putts 4-5 feet short.

Overall, it was great to get back out here and play Los Verdes again.

Played on 6/25 and was so excited to play the course a week after the US Open.

While the rough was definitely cut around the fairways, around the greens it appears they were not because it was BRUTAL.

The times my score blew up were the times my ball ended up in the greenside rough, very hard to judge the release of the ball. I did find myself in some uncut rough in the fairway on hole 12 I literally took 3 full 8 iron swings to move the ball 20 feet!!!

The greens were not overly fast but rolled out as a previous poster noted. They rolled very true very few bounces.

Fairways were very nice the ball sitting up very nicely. The rough while cut down was very much a challenge depending on the lie you got.

Overall, it was a blast to play and a very good layout but I think the layout is not the tough part of the course it's all about the rough. As a comparison, Journey at Pechanga is tough because of the layout not because of the rough. Either way, both are great courses with different elements to make it tough.

Played here on 6/19/21 as part of a match play tournament (we pick our course and play other teams of 2) as it was the only option on a Father's Day weekend.

Expectations were low from reading the reviews and it didn't start too well as we got there and the power was out in the facility so no pre round warmup (much needed with a tight back).

I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with the course both layout and conditions were pretty solid. The first hole green was brutal but we were forewarned, other than that the greens were very solid, rolled true a little on the slow side.

Fairways were in good shape and the rough around the green was good.

The worst part of the course was definitely the bunker with no sand at all, I think everyone in our group skulled at least bunker shot. The fairway rough was pretty bad as well.

A couple of holes I wasn't a big fan of like 2, 13, 16 but enjoyed a number of other holes so it was fine.

Overall, I do plan on coming back and playing here. Had a good time.
