The Palms Golf Club

About The Palms Golf Club

This La Quinta gem flies under the radar compared to its resort neighbors, but that 4.8 Google rating from players tells you everything about the quality of golf you'll find here. The course sits in prime Coachella Valley real estate with the Santa Rosa Mountains providing a dramatic backdrop, yet maintains surprisingly reasonable green fees for the area. What sets The Palms apart is its walkable design, a rarity in desert golf, allowing you to experience the course at a more intimate pace while taking in those stunning desert vistas. The layout rewards strategic thinking over pure distance, with clever bunkering and water features that come into play on several holes. Conditioning is consistently excellent, with greens that roll true and fairways that give you a good lie. Don't expect the bells and whistles of a PGA West, but do expect a honest test of golf in one of California's most beautiful settings, with the kind of friendly atmosphere that keeps locals coming back.
