02What golfers say

The word on the course.

How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.

The more relaxed, approachable Desert Willow course, with wide manicured fairways, open green fronts that welcome run-up shots and panoramic mountain vistas. Forgiving enough for most players while keeping enough bunkering and water near the greens to stay interesting.

Best forForgiving

Consistently praised

Wide, finely manicured fairways and forgiving open-fronted greens.
Big panoramic mountain views and varied tee options for every level.

Worth knowing

Water cuts in front of a few greens, so some approaches still demand a carry.

Golfers recommend

A good choice for the higher-handicap or fun-round day versus tougher Firecliff.
Bunkers can be high-lipped, but most sit off the green fronts so run-ups are open.
