The two 18-hole championship Tahquitz Creek golf courses promise very different experiences. A long-time favorite among Palm Springs golfers, the Legend Course at Tahquitz Creek is a par-72, 6,600-yard course sporting a traditional layout. It was originally designed by William (Billy) Bell in the 1950s, but recent renovations have marked the addition of 40 new bunkers to the Legends Course.
The newer of the two golf courses at Tahquitz Creek Golf Resort, the Resort Course, is a Ted Robinson design that debuted in 1995. A par-72, 6,705-yard course with four sets of tees, the Resort Course, also features a desert links-style layout. Both Tahquitz Creek golf courses offer views of the San Jacinto Mountains.
Amenities at the Arnold Palmer-managed Tahquitz Creek include a driving range, putting area, and short game area along with golf lessons and clinics. The Tahquitz Creek Golf Resort is also home to a well stocked golf shop and the Traditions Cafe. Golf Digest has rated the Tahquitz Creek golf courses among the Best Places to Play.
