First time back out in around 3 months after being out of state for most of the summer. I am told there was alot of recent rain, which has this place looking green/lush. Greens are currently outstanding. Medium quick and they roll smooth as a high end pool table. Downhill putts can be almost impossible on some hole locations. So you need to plan and execute your approach shots accordingly. Range and practice greens both upper level quality wise. Nice GPS on carts. Restaurant good for a golf course with a decent selection. POP excellent with most snow birds not here yet. Temps in the 90-95 range this time of year in the afternoons is pretty pleasant w/o humidity most days. Rough is hit/miss and you cannot count on it stopping balls hit around the edges of fairways. Areas getting overspray from the fairways can be lush/deep. But areas 5' away can be low/thin. Fairways and tees mostly lush and well maintained. Sand traps almost always nicely maintained here. Highly recommended.

Ran and played in our first outing back to Rams Hill Golf Club since 2022. What an outstanding job Rams Hill Golf Club did with the turf renovation project from then to now producing immaculate playing conditions the golf course is known for. And what a tremendous job their staff did running our event and treating our players first class.

Despite the scorching drought filled summer leading up to our event we experienced lush green fairways/rough, smooth healthy greens, level lush tee boxes and well maintained bunkers. Due to the heat and preserving the health of the greens they were running slow by Rams Hill GC standards at a 9. However, the speed was precisely consistent from green to green and since they ran smooth with hardly any ball marks, they were an absolute pleasure to play.

The layout of Rams Hill Golf Club quickly reminded me how spectacular it is and truly worthy of being a Top-100 rated golf course in the United States. It’s gorgeous, generous off the tee, severely punishes very poor shots and rewards good shots. It’s very interesting with lots of variety and incredible expansive desert views. What an exceptional piece of land architect Tom Fazio had to work with, and he made the best of it.

Besides the course, Rams Hill Golf Club provides top quality food & beverage services. My foursome played Friday and Saturday enjoying two delicious breakfasts, yummy complementary Ram Shack tacos and lunch after play.

Thank you Rams Hill Golf Club for welcoming our group back and a HUGE THANK YOU to everyone that came out to play in this event (95 players). We’ll be making Rams Hill Golf Club an annual, or possibly a bi-annual, event again moving forward!!!

Check out some photos I just posted.

Highly Recommended.

First time out to Links at Lakehouse on 9/15. This course will skew your stats. Small greens, but fairly flat and easy to putt. Nasty kikuyu grass. So you aren't going to hit so many greens, and chipping is tough. On the other hand, I probably had 5-6 iron shots that I thought were really good that ended up on the fringe just off the green.

Condition - the greens were very good. Soft, and normally I'd expect more ball marks, but the greens are too small to hit for most humans I think. Fairways were decent, generally good grass, but there were many areas that were grass challenged.

The not so good are the bunkers and tee boxes. The sand traps were short of sand in several locations, and I saw a lot of bottoming out. Tee boxes, several are just a mess.

Still, for the price they are charging, it is pretty decent and worth it. Definitely not a destination course, but a fun local affordable track.

Played today in very nice cool weather.

Course was in good condition for the most part all round.

Tee boxes were all fine and playable.

Fairways had good coverage but provided little to no roll out. But they are aerating next week so that may explain it? Did give good lies all round.

Traps were all playble in none but heard no complaints.

Rough was not cut recently so it played tough if you were in it.

Greens were all mowed clean and putted with reasonably good speed. Not fast as in the past rounds.

Great customer service in the shop as always.

Always a great place to play either courses though I do prefer the E.

Nine dollars, nine holes who could ask for anything more. Got here at 6:30 right as they were closing.
I only took 3 clubs and was just crossing it off the list, but this is a really solid place to work on your game. Most holes are in the 130 range, but you can make your own yardages if you're practicing.

Greens were smooth and fast even though they were small. Bunkers were some of the most well sculpted I've seen on a short course. Filled to the brim with perfect sand better than many of the private clubs I played. Just an enjoyable 9 holes, I was done in 40 min, but you could spend plenty of time here and not get bored.

Just up the road from Wood Ranch I teed off here at 4PM and the heat and lateness kept most of the people away, so another beautiful 2-hour round.

Course was in good private course shape all around. Greens were fast but reasonable. Not a long course but a solid challenge. There are some open holes but many of them play through chutes of trees. Lots of twists and turns and hills to keep you on your toes. Well worth your time.

Played this course last Tuesday and noticed it was going to host a GK event.
They were working on the course so hopefully by the outing it will be in tip-top shape.

It's a fun layout and definitely worth playing, with a good mix of holes, however it was in public course shape. Greens were good and medium fast; traps and fairways were just OK.
Front nine was nice but the back side is where the course really shines. Elevation, water, length make for a truly engaging nine.

Finished the day here. Quirky fun little nine holer that was a bit more than a pitch and putt.
Decent shape if overpriced at $20. Interesting mix of holes thru a small housing development.
Six mostly short holes on one side of the road and three solid holes to finish on the other side.
It's got a creek that comes into play as well as some other water for some interest. Played in less than an hour and it's a fun nine.

Headed over here after Via Verde and it was different in almost every way. It was somewhat crowded, just as hot but less steamy.

Solid layout in private course shape. Greens were fast, bunkers were full and fluffy and no bad lies anywhere. Good amount of elevation change and a good mix of easy and challenging holes. Front nine is flatter with more trees, back nine much hillier and more wide open.

Paid $149 to ride and it was the most expensive round on the trip, but I bounced around and finished in 3 hours on a holiday Monday, so I was more than satisfied.

Played here last Monday, on a hot, sticky gross day. Off at 9 and done by 11 so it was bearable.
Staff were super kind and accommodating and I had the course mostly to myself.
I liked the layout and the elevation changes, but I paid a premium as a reciprocal on a holiday. It does have a handful of scenic holes.

Course was only in decent shape, greens and traps were good but some of the fairways were spotty and it looked like some of the lower holes may have had some flooding and were covered with leaves and some garbage. I assume since they were open on a maintenance Monday that it would be rectified.

I rode because it was so hot, but the course seems pretty walkable, so a twilight walking round would probably make it worth the money. Still glad I crossed it off the list.

First out at 7AM last week to beat the heat and played previous days pins as maintenance crews were on every hole. Unique experience for me chasing the grounds crew.

Course is in immaculate condition, (best on my trip)and a very fun and challenging layout.
They had me tee off on the back as they were spreading fertilizer on the front and it was CPO
but it took only 10 extra minutes for me to play that side. And I didn't notice anything different.

Lots of great golf holes, good amount of elevation change and plenty of challenging bunkers. The greens we perfect even though they were wet they were still pretty fast. It was probably my favorite course of the trip. If it isn't sold out, I suggest you sign up for Johnny's outing, if it is I suggest going to the next one.

Rode the Blues for the GK/Vivid/Golfmoose event Sat Sep 12th in group 1B with three of my buddies. Since conditions dont change overnight [which were all in the 9/10 range thought I would review practice facilities/clubhouse/food/staff and amenities at Rams Hill.

Our group which played back to back days were treated like royalty at Rams Hill. Our first day we had a player in our group not feeling well by hole 4. Marshall with a friendly smile had frozen grapes, electrolyte sticks, extra bottle waters and extra ice for the cooler. During the Golfmoose Event Sat we had the complimentary tacos and shaved ice at the Ramshack right next to 14 tee. The cartbarn kids were friendly loaded the bags and gave us extra water. Resturant staff were great. Our group had the breakfast burritos both mornings and lunch right after the event. Food amazing with very friendly staff. If u like to drink they had a large bar overlooking the signature 18th hole. Practice facilities included a elevated range on grass with Prov1s and a seperate chipping green just right of the 1st tee. The resturant has a outdoor patio during cooler months for groups to hang out. I did see a shower in the restroom for folks to use if they please. Lining the fairways were individual/houses/casitas for a group to rent as they have stay and play packages. Due to the layout which is great I can see why the social media buzz of making this a buddies trip or girls trip or couples trip is mentioned. Rams Hill closed at 430pm so if needing to eat later in the day our group ate at Carlees in downtown Borrego Springs which has an extensive menu. Proshop had an adequate amount of merchandise and the proshop provides tees, ballmarks, etc.

If looking to book a stay and play as a group would Highly recommend this place.
