Profile: This resort, which made "GOLF Magazine's" list of "Gold Medal Resorts in 1998, has two outstanding eighteen hole courses. These courses are continually alternated, allowing one to be kept private while the other is used by hotel guests. These desert courses are well maintained, and the scenery is breathtaking. The natural desert terrain has been left in place on the sides of the fairways, and in many cases, in the middle of the fairways as well, so accurate shots are required. Both courses provide challenges and enjoyment for all skill levels of golfer. "Golf Digest" rated the North Course as the 3rd "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996, the 12th "Best in State" Course for 1995-96, and 19th under the same category for 1997-98. "GOLF Magazine" rated the North Course 91st under the category of "Top 100 Courses You Can Play in the U.S." in 1998. In addition, "Golf Digest" rated the South Course as the 2nd "Best Public Course" in the state for 1996, the 15th "Best in State" course for 1995-96, and 20th under the same category for 1997-98. "GOLF Magazine" rated the South Course 53rd under the category of "Top 100 Courses You Can Play in the U.S." in 1998. The club has a private golf membership, but it also allows for public play.
