Palms Golf Club

About
Palms Golf Course is a championship course that combines desert and traditional golf. Formerly called Peppermill, the course is Mesquite's oldest 18-hole course and offers one of the city's most unique rounds. The course is truly like playing two courses in one. The front nine has a classic design with fairly flat and open fairways that give way to tight, tree-lined driving areas. Save for one hole, water comes into play on every hole on the front nine starting with the second, which is the course's no. 1 handicap. Water can be found along the entire left side of the fairways and you'll also face a pair of bunkers guarding the right side and three more behind the green. The elevated tees on the back nine provide scenic views of the desert terrain covered with sagebrush and tumbleweeds, a dramatically different landscape that the previous nine.

Fun course
Played The Palms, enjoyed the layout and course was in good shape. Staff was friendly and helpful and pace of play was good.
Great stop in golf
Set a time here on my drive to Utah. Had a mid day time. They got me out early. We started on the back 9. Spectacular views, great shape, good greens and challenging. After the first few holes I was blown away at this secret little gem. Went to the front 9 at the turn and yes, it is a story of two courses. It was in good shape with fair pace (caught up with a group of three that invited me to play with them). but it felt very much like a muni track. Simple straightfoward back and forth golf unlike the front nine which has elevation, canyons, narrow to wide and wide to narrow shots. If the back 9 was duplicated, could see paying $150 a round here. With the front 9, $70 feels about right. Worth a stop though!
Super Nice Layout
Back 9, in the Canyon, is an awesome challenge. Front is flat, relatively easy, good prep for the wicked back, overall, a good value, nice spread.
Very Accommodating Staff
Booked 4 tee times for our golf group, When we arrived the staff was very accommodating. They had our golf carts ready to go with our names and tee times. Registration went smoothly and off we went to the first tee. The course was in good condition and the pace of play was excellent. If you are looking for an interesting course layout while in Mesquite, make this one of your stops.
Value Priced Golf
Pedestrian front 9 and spectacular back 9. Course is dormant Bermuda and painted greens. Staff were great. Good deal for the price but if you expect premium conditions you will be disappointed
Good Desert Course
As many have noted, this course has two personalities between the front nine and back nine. On the front nine, the holes were pretty straight forward, but very frustrating because a ball could land two feet in front of the green and die in four inches of grass. The back nine meandered through washes and draws of the desert, presenting many challenges of steep inclines and major drops in elevation. This is where course knowledge was very important so you don't hit a driver through a dogleg. Overall, a fun course.
