A typical late 70's Desert track winding tightly through condos. Flat greens and short holes that don't require much shot making make this an uninteresting venue, unless you want to go low for a day.

Good Ted Robinson course. Testy because narrow fairways, good trapping, and pin placements quite hard. Too close to condos and traps not in good shape. Used for the player apptitude test for potential club pros for southern California and the scores are quite high suggesting that the course is more of a challenge than at first appears - common for Ted Robinson courses.
