The Palms Golf Club

La Quinta, CA Private

Overview

Built on an old palm tree farm, The Palms Golf Club stays true to its roots with some towering trees framing nearly every hole—which along with the mountains in the distance—make for great backdrops. The Brian Curley/Fred Couples design is playable off the tee but features some smaller, undulating putting surfaces that can give players fits. There is a good variety of holes—with long and short par 3s and a shorter, reachable par 5 coupled with a 600-yard-plus three-shotter.
