A true desert course, Arthur Hills has incorporated natural rock formations, ravines and a desert wash as strategic components of play.

The first six holes offer a variety of elevations, climbing more than 1,000 feet through the Santa Rosa Mountains before tumbling back down into the desert. Tee boxes carved into natural rock outcroppings, fairways contoured into the mountainous terrain, and greens tucked back into natural coves present a most challenging golf experience.

The latter half of the course returns to a more traditional layout of rolling hills and valleys, water hazards and a couple of long par 5's which continue to test the golfer's skill.

Signature Hole Comments: Number 6 is a 505-yard par 4 providing a breathtaking view of the Coachella Valley. Due to the 100-foot drop from tee to fairway, accuracy rather than distance will prove more effective for positioning the second shot.
