CATHEDRAL CANYON GOLF & TENNIS CLUB

Palm Springs Golf Course Review 8/18/05
- Photos updated December, 2007
Cathedral Canyon in Cathedral City is a David Rainville 27-hole design featuring 3 distinctive nine-hole layouts. Laced against the backdrop of the San Jacinto Mountains, the course provides tree lined fairways, strategically placed bunkers and over 20 lakes and ponds. On property is a fully stocked pro shop, restaurant/lounge with full menus in season plus Sunday Brunch, and banquet/outing facilities with golf course views, that can accommodate up to 180 guests.
Steven Creps is a Class "A" PGA instructor who offers a variety of lessons and instructional programs in the Cathedral Canyon Golf School, and Ping club-fitting is available on the club property, which also includes mat & grass range, putting green and short game area with sand bunker. Hole diagram booklets are mounted to the carts, 150 yard stakes are visible on the fairways, and color coded flags indicate front, middle and back hole locations on the mildly sloping putting surfaces.
The Arroyo is an open, rugged links style design that features rolling fairways bordered by mounding and high native grasses. The greens and fairways provide significant contours and are well protected by sand and grassy swales.
The Lake nine is fairly level and presents plentiful water hazards as it meanders through a residential community. The mountain nine is a bit more up and down and presents great mountain vistas as it too plays through a residential development.
Cathedral Canyon is open for public play, and with rates topping out at under $100 including cart prime time, is one of the more outstanding golfing values in the Palm Springs area. For more info, visit our page for the course, with direct link to their website by clicking here.
