Palm Springs enjoys over 300 days of sunshine a year with weather conditions usually hot and dry. It is this beautiful Palm Springs weather that makes the city a prime location for golfing. Palm Springs golf is a world unto itself with over 80 different courses and greens, both public and private, to choose from. With perfect conditions and nearly endless course choices, Palm Springs real estate is a great investment for a vacation or second home for golf enthusiasts and lovers alike. The numerous courses are great for seasoned golfers as well as new comers to the sport or just those who need a bit of tuning up on their back swing.
A great place to start is at the Escena Golf Club. This public course offers majestic panoramic views of the Desert Mountains and an 18-hole championship course. There are multiple water features for a varied and challenging game for any level of golfer and beautifully landscaped native areas which provide great scenery. The back tees stretch nearly 7,200 yards allowing skilled players to test their limits but with four other sets of tees so recreational golfers can determine their own pace. With abundant room to roam and obstructed sight line views, the Escena Golf Club is a great course for all levels of golfers.
Another great feature of Palm Springs golf courses is the multidimensionality of courses. Rancho Las Palmas for example offers a public championship layout with three separate courses – North, South and West. Each distinct 9 hole layout is unique, offering different mountain vistas, rolling terrain and fairways lined with classic California palm-trees. The club sits at the base of Mount San Jacinto and is surrounded by six beautiful lakes. This course earned 4 stars from Gold Digest Places to Play and Ted Robinson bunkering to give even experienced golfers a memorable challenge.
