The Gary Player Course was in great shape. It was a challenge but very forgiving at the same time. My husband and I had so much fun playing the course that we played it again a day later. The golf staff was so helpful. You could not beat the price either. I played my best golf ever here. I am... More

Truly a gorgeous course. Wonderful, wide-open resort course so those coming from colder climates and who might be rusty have a shot at enjoying the round! Very helpful staff. As an owner of one of the timeshares at the resort, the price could not be beat. Look forward to coming back often.

This is a great course for the mid to high handicapper. This course has a good variety of holes, they are all different and well designed. The staff in the clubhouse, bar and the starter were all great and I will most likely come back here again.

One of the best courses in the Palm Springs area, the Gary Player Course was in meticulous shape when I played it. Nice wide open fairways, and the greens rolled true. While it's a bit pricey, it's worth the few extra bucks for a great day of play. Finish round in four hours, and the service all through the course... More

A little easier than the sister "Pete Dye" course, this venue was an excellent way to feel better about your game. Just as well maintained and will striking views, it was a pleasure to play two rounds on this course!

Troon golf does an excellent job of getting you around this spectacular track. Very well maintained fairways and lightening fast greens. A hidden jewel.

We were surprised when we drove up to the temp building/trailers for the clubhouse, and wondering what the fairways would be like after driving along the dormant grass that lined the fairways. But it was actually a very pretty course. The fairways and greens were in beautiful condition. Much flatter fairways and greens than elsewhere we played this week. And... More

Challenging, well layed out course. A tad bit cheaper than it's sister course (Pete Dye). Make sure you reserve online for a discount. . .sometimes you can get lunch included. . .
