Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- This chic Greater Palm Springs golf resort is your personal blank canvas, boasting secluded event spaces that are surrounded on all sides by verdant fairways, swaying palms, and mountain panoramas that kiss the horizon. While not a traditional "resort"—there's no on-site lodging, for example—there are plenty of accommodations nearby... and the Palms Springs International Airport is just minutes away.
- The event spaces are uniquely secluded, giving a private estate feel that no other area clubs can match—they'll even arrange to have golfers re-routed to provide the ultimate privacy for your "I do"s on the green! The gorgeous grounds, which encompass colorful gardens with fragrant verbena and wildflowers, soft lawns, and towering palm trees, are all yours to enjoy.
- The glass walls of the one-of-a-kind reception Pavilion frame exquisite vistas of the Santa Rosa Mountains, with inset doors that provide seamless access to the surrounding lawns. The cuisine is inventive and elevated—choose from their extensive list of specialities, like miso-glazed Chilean sea bass or pecan-crusted Jidori chicken breast, or let their culinary team dream up something just for you.
