Tahquitz Creek Golf Resort

Played the RESORT course on 23 Jan 2025. I honestly was expecting a bit better on the amenities of the course. The range is hard to warm up with because it barely has any grass on it. However, they do have nice areas for putting and chipping practice. The course is maintained for the most part. Tee boxes are shaped and cut well, fairways nice and green, the greens roll well but are slick. It is hard to stop the ball which makes it a lot more challenging to be accurate. The only course maintenance that I was not satisfied with are the fairway bunkers. They are not that well maintained as the green side bunkers. A lot of mud a barely any sand in them. The layout and scenery of the course is pretty cool. I must add that this course does offer money back for military if you show your ID when you check in so I thank them for that. The course is in pretty good shape and I could see myself coming back here to play.

If you’re wanting to have a great golf experience in Palm Springs, this is the spot. I’m an amateur enthusiast, not too serious but I had a great time at this course. The line to each hole was easy to follow, the golf carts were great and descent quality with an ice chest. The grass and overall upkeep was top notch along with the food and drink cart being great. A few bathroom break areas and it didn’t feel rushed at all and most waves before and after us were real cool, relaxed. I’d definitely come back here again for another round!

We played on 1/4 and enjoyed the first 9 holes but unfortunately for us, had a pretty terrible time from hole 10 onwards as there was a group of 4 behind us being rude: yelling for us to hurry up multiple times and hitting their balls up to where we were on the fairway without apologizing or just backing off after the first time. My partner and I joined another twosome in front of us and they informed us that the group behind us were all individuals who worked at the course, and that is enough information to not return here. It’s a shame because it’s a breathtaking beautiful course but if they are employing rude individuals to intimidate paying customers, I’ll take my business elsewhere.
