About this course

Palm Desert Resort Country Club is a daily-fee facility located in the Coachella Valley of Southern California, designed by Joe Mulleneaux and opened in the mid-1970s. The course occupies relatively flat desert terrain characteristic of the Palm Desert area, with views of the surrounding Santa Rosa and San Jacinto mountain ranges that define the valley's landscape. The routing reflects the era's approach to desert golf, incorporating water features and palm-lined fairways alongside the natural arid environment. The layout presents a straightforward test suitable for resort and public play, with generous landing areas and greens designed to accommodate a range of skill levels. Water comes into play on several holes, and the bunkering follows conventional patterns typical of courses built during this period in the Coachella Valley. The conditioning and playability cater to the daily-fee market that has long been a significant part of Palm Desert's golf economy. Palm Desert Resort Country Club operates within a competitive market that includes numerous public and semi-private facilities throughout the valley. The course serves both visitors seeking accessible golf in the desert climate and local players looking for convenient, moderately priced options. Like many courses in the region, it benefits from the area's winter season, when golf tourism peaks and conditions are most favorable for play.
