We had an incredible experience and are so fortunate to have our wedding here this past fall. We kicked off the weekend with a round of golf on Friday—the course was beautiful, and the pro shop (shout out to Brian and Jason!) was extremely accommodating. Saturday went off without a hitch. The ceremony on the event lawn was picture-perfect, followed by a lovely cocktail hour on the Palm Desert Terrace. Dinner and dancing on the Lakeview Terrace made for an unforgettable evening. Everything was seamless and beautifully coordinated! Robbie, (Coordinator/Director of Catering Sales) was truly a magician—her care, attention, and patience over months of planning made all the difference, and she ensured day of unfolded perfectly. Harry, the Banquet Manager, kept every transition between events smooth and effortless, so we could simply enjoy every moment. Thanks to the whole team, we appreciate all of you!

Fantastic experience on Fireclif course. Good variety of holes with really cool backdrops (foliage, palms, water) on a lot of approach shots. We played in 4h, entire course was in great shape with bathroom and water stations every 3-4 holes. Greens are very reasonable, some movement to keep you focused and receptive to good shots, they're not tabletop fast which is appreciated.

Great golf course! We'll maintained. Awesome, friendly staff. The putting greens were in excellent condition. The driving range was in great shape as well.

We recently celebrated my parents’ afternoon wedding reception at the Desert Willow Golf Club restaurant, and it was such a beautiful and memorable experience. The setting was incredible, sweeping desert views, and an elegant yet relaxed atmosphere that made the day feel extra special. The service was outstanding from start to finish. Staff were attentive, kind, and genuinely helpful in making sure every guest felt comfortable and taken care of. The food was equally impressive, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully plated. From appetizers to dessert, every bite was a hit with our guests. If you’re looking for a venue that blends great food, top-notch service, and breathtaking views, I highly recommend Desert Willow. It was the perfect place to celebrate such an important family moment, and we’re so grateful for the hospitality we received.

Played course on 15 June 2025. Course staff is very friendly and helpful. From the cart guys, marshall, pro shop, and diner. Everyone was top tier. The course has complimentary range balls, good practice greens, and a nice chipping area. The course itself conditions are great also. Tee boxes level, fairways cut nicely, and greens well maintained. These greens roll and roll FAST. The only critique I could say is the sand in the bunkers. They don't have much at all and definitely need more but is not a reason to give this course less than 5 stars. The marshall even came around with cold towels to keep us cool. Five star treatment and service!!! They treated our G.O.A.L. golf group with class. Definitely recommend this course to all and I will be back. THE COURSE IS CHALLENGING, THIS IS YOUR WARNING!!
