There are two courses in the Palm Desert Sun City complex. I played the San Gorgonio course which is away from the main clubhouse where the practice tee and other facilities exist. It is an unusual layout with three par 3's on the front nine. The course was empty at 3 PM when I started and it appeared that I had the course to myself. Greens were a bit slow, but other than that, the layout was in great shape. Certainly a fun day. Would have played today, but the unthinkable happened in the desert . . . it rained--hard!

Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Better than average course for the area, Ranks with the best in this price level

I live in Sun City and just played this morning Nov. 28. Both courses are in superior condition and are maintained as such year round. I've lived here 10 years and found the courses to always be exceptional. All my guests have remarked on the top quality condition and playability of both courses.

We have two 18 hole courses, the Santa Rosa and San Gorgonio courses. Each has it's positives. The courses are usually in great shape from tee to green. We are currently preparing for overseeding so the courses are not at the usual high level. Both courses are fun to play and the price competes very well with the other desert courses.
