You can humble or be humbled by the two exceptional 18-hole championship courses at Desert Springs Resort, set against the ever changing background of the San Bernadino and Santa Rosa mountains.  Both courses were designed by acclaimed architect Ted Robinson, "King of Waterscapes".

The Valley Course at the Desert Springs JW Marriott Resort features classic Robinson design elements; effective water usage, palm framed multitiered greens and undulating fairways.

The Palms Course, originally built in 1987, winds its way around the resort's waterways. Two of the holes, #5 and #18 were selected best golf holes in the valley by Palm Springs Life Magazine's selection committee

The Greens at Desert Springs provide golfers of all ages and abilities an enjoyable and unique golf experience.  This all natural turf putting course combines all aspects of a full length course, sand bunkers, water hazards, strategically placed trees and rolling "fairways" all played with just one club, the putter.

Also on property is a well-stocked pro shop, professional staff and tournament-outing-event coordination team, along with and golf training program, driving range, practice greens, and a short game practice area.
