This is a fun golf course. It has some very interesting holes like number 9 where your tee shot is to an island fairway. Then the second shot is over the water to the green. You have to decide how much you want to hit off the tee to make your second shot shorter.. good luck. Also the course was in great shape. Very green.. no brown spots... . The staff members were also very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this course if you get a chance to play here.
Great experience at Desert Island with our annual guys golf group. Staff was extremely pleasant, including the pro-shop staff, cart staff, and starter. Drinks at the outside bar after the round was a great way to end the day as well. The course was in great shape. A relatively short course, with narrow fairways and tricky greens can definitely be a challenge. We will definitely be back.
We had our wedding at this venue and had the BEST experience. The place was so funky & eclectic. The views were spectacular. And the staff were so professional & kind. We had such a wonderful day.
What a great course! Early tee time a d everything was ready to go, range, snack bar and carts with LED lights! Fairways were green, the greens were immaculate and slow at first with the dew then they firmed up and ran better. Great views and the 9th fairway island is challenging! Over all a great course to score very well, if you can keep it out of the water!
Desert Island golf course is a high class facility you should play. The conditioning is amazing with fairways that are well manicured and greens that are in super shape. There are a variety of tees to challenge yourself and the architecture of the holes are amazing. Yes, there are a couple of true Island holes. I was paired with two nice golfers and we all had a great time!
