Played on April 2, 2011. VERY windy (i.e. driver off the tee on par 3s into wind would not reach green). Due to wind, no one in our foursome broke 100, and each lost no less than 6 balls.

Course condition was excellent, though bunkers were somewhat hard packed. Tee boxes were great, fairway very good, rough was very good. Greens were pretty slow, however.

Customer service was excellent. I screwed up and booked online tee time for April 1, 2011 (instead of April 2), but staff had no problem getting us out and honored the April 1 rate without question ($44.00 per person). This course has some of the best staff of any golf course in Southern California. Staff genuinely seems to enjoy helping people, which is an oddity these days.

All in all, check the weather for wind prior to going out. Without wind, this course is great. With wind, it can be punishing. As always, I would recommend this course, and will definately be back to play again.

Played today (3/6/11) and the course in good shape (see rview). Third out 2 ball, passed two 4 balls on the front and played in less then three hours. The best part NO WIND until we were in the car and driving home. Paid $69.00 (GolfNow).

Played this course today 2/27/11. Very cold and windy. Got out at 7 am. The course was very green. Fairways where lush, sand was fluffy, greens where firm and fast. If you go into the desert the ball is gone. Only problem is the wind. Weather.com showed 10 mph winds and the wind blew all round over 25mph. I saw my 7 iron shot get blown completely away from the green it to the desert 20 yards away. If you hit with the wind your drive could fly some deep yardage. On hole #3 I hit it 5 yards from the green on a 350 yard par 4. If you hit into the wind and got it up good luck. I hit a 7 iron 90 yards into the wind. All in all great course in great condition. Good price for $59 on golf now. Customer service was great. Just be sure to check the wind before you go out. Do not trust Weather.com.

Because of the rain in the I.E. the condition of my local Courses have been Non-playable and so my buddies and i have had to go to the desert to play. The Desert Dune's has Outstanding Customer Service, they treat you like they want you to come back. Course is in great Condition and the rates $$ not bad. If you play this Course take the Golf balls you don't mind losing, because you will lose them on the outside desert. Greens are very hard and fast, ball will not hold the greens. I will be back.

Drove out today, no rain and very little wind. First out and played in about 3.5 hrs. (Three Ball). We had a great time and the course is in good condition. Then drive back to the rain in Pasadena.

Desert Dunes has recently reopened after overseeding with rye grass. Course is a beautiful emerald green but fairways are still thin in some areas and greens are a bit slow which is to be expected. Overall, Desert Dunes is in excellent shape as it is getting ready to host a Canandian Tour event the first week of November.

This course is already challenging but they have let the rough grow out to 5+ inches in some areas...probably to prepare for the pros. Thank goodness the tees were moved up a bit to counter the thick rough and soft conditions...I got very little roll on my tee shots. Sand traps were the best condition i've seen at Desert Dunes.

Customer service was outstanding from check in to the new cart girl. Highly recommend this course if the wind is blowing...and it wasn't blowing at all today.

Desert Dunes is in GREAT SHAPE...better than most courses during the middle of summer in the Coachella Valley. Strong layout, smooth greens and lush fairways. Check first to make sure the wind isn't howling then come out and play this outstanding track!

Great course and very well maintained. I'm a high hadicapper and this course is tough because of narrow fairways lined with brier bushes so if you miss the fairways good bye ball. Greens very hard and didn't hold to many shots which was tough because most greens were elevated. Switched to ProV and held a little better. Very ungulated fairways and greens made this course tough as well. Course layout really nice too. Reminded me of PGA West courses at a very reasonable price ($30 6am Sun tee time) I would highly recommend this course.

Played Sunday Morning 6-27-10, no wind and very good conditions. The greens
need a few more weeks, very bumpy and inconsistent but still playable. It is very
tough to catch a bad lye here. Hard to beat the Online special at 6:00am $30. Well
worth the drive. 2 hrs 45 minutes to play. A very enjoyable morning and round. I
recommend this to everyone, it is a good trent jones layout.
