This is not an easy course. Miss just a little on your drives and it's a good chance you won't find your ball. The traps are mostly hardpan covered with a thin layer of sand and pebble sized rocks. It's also quite hilly with several holes with blind landind areas. It's also a visually beatiful course.

Conditions were very good. Cart paths on front nine are dirt. Back nine newer smooth concrete. Greens were consistently slower due to length of cut - not too hard to adjust for, carts were newer and smooth. Got to see a few roadrunners but no other critters. Pace was a little slow 4 hours for 18 holes. Good value muni course!

This course I've played for 50 plus years. Be accurate on certain holes (target control) or find that huge rattlesnake looking in the brush for your ball. Not sure if they have named it yet but he's a granddaddy. Regarding the driving range where I go a lot now: They have many many spots, and they always seem to have good grass to divot off of. They move the markers forward and back once the grass is used up like they should. The ball dispensing machine has got to be at least 50 years old, and it always gives you trouble trying to feed it ones. The one thing I think they should upgrade thus my 4 stars. A large bucket (2 load cycles) is $9 - a small bucket (1 cycle) is $6. If you go to pro shop you can pay for a code and input a code instead of feeding bills. Seems much easier. For example, if you put in 2 fives, it doesn't give change, it just says you have a $1 credit on a large basket which is $9. So then go to pro shop and the guy there will give you a code for a large bucket for that $1 credit! Happy hitting.

Perfect for what it is ! To be clear, it's a public course run by the city. It's not The Gallery or Stone Canyon, but it doesn't try to be. It has some very interesting holes designs, good variety and affordable rates. For golf on a budget, you can't beat it !

Nice little desert course. It doesn't feel very little if you walk it, including the back nine. I ended up with 19,000 steps the day I walked it! Get your sneakers on! Was in good shape and marked well.
