This is a very challenging course. It could use a quality map/guide for shot making off the tee and some second shots. It is a beautiful course with some spectacular views. The fairways and greens were in very good condition. It is a fair course and very playable. The staff was friendly and helpful. Also, we played on a Friday and the refreshment cart made several passes for our convenience. A cart is required and a fair distance between greens and next tee box. A good day

I enjoy the layout every time but I think they’d get more consistent play if it was less than $100. A little rich in my opinion for what you get.

We did a "Play and Stay." The course was in excellent condition. The restaurant needs help so bring your own and cook at the well furnished and supplied lodging. The lodging room was wonderful and we will return as we enjoyed it so much.

layout is terrific but the course is showing it's age. lots of frost damage, but that's because it is early in the season. no Marshall, water stations or beverage cart anywhere on the course. we waited at half the holes so a marshall would have been helpful. not worth 80 bucks but I'm still glad I played it. worth playing once.

I played Desert Canyon Golf Resort over the 4th of July weekend and was very happy that I did. THe first thing that I should tell everybody is to pick up a Wenatchee World newspaper and find the "Locals Coupon" for Desert Canyon. I was not initially excited to pay the $75 for the course but the coupon gets you on the course for $45 incl/cart. We liked the course so much we did the replay for a mere $25. They have been putting a million gallons of water on Desert Canyon a week and you can tell. The grass was a dark green and cut perfect. The greens were very smoothe and very receptive. Most of the holes feel different and pose different challenges. The course sits high above the Columbia river and you get a real good feeling of this when you come to thier signature "Canyon Hole" which lets you see for days down the valley. By our second round you could tell the course was drying out a bit and did roll faster. Now they have sand traps that are pretty good if you get in em but you should at all costs try and stay out of these waste areas that they have which look like giant sand traps. It is a fine dirt instead of a more traditional sand and is heavy when you hit out of it. It also contains pebbles which marked up one of my new Mizuno's. I used a sand wedge the rest of the day out of the waste areas. Im not sure why but it seems that a ton of golf courses are discounting the roll of the beverage cart. We didn't see the cart on the entire first 18 holes but she made up for it on the second 18 holes when we saw her every 3 holes. The next time I am in Wenatchee I will be visiting Desert Canyon Golf Resort for sure. The proshop staff was great and got us out promptly after we had a great lunch in thier new restaurant.
