Mission Hills - Gary Player Course

A full-length Gary Player layout in the middle of the valley at prices that often sit near $50 in the off season. Conditioning has been uneven, so treat it as a value round rather than a showpiece.

Local knowledge

Conditioning has been the knock: a GolfPass review from about Aug 2026 described poor greens and weedy rough, while a GolfClubAtlas member on Sep 9, 2026 found it quiet and worth a return. Check recent reviews after the November reopening.
Summer and shoulder Hot Deals run around $50 with cart; it is usually one of the cheaper full-length rounds in the middle of the valley.
Residents with the Coachella Valley Resident Golf Card use their own tee sheet: mhnplaycard.ezlinksgolf.com.
