What do you get when you take the exceptional beauty of the Southern California landscape and pair it with one of the most legendary golfers of the 20th century? You get today’s feature course, Shadow Ridge in Palm Desert – one of the finest championship golf courses you’ll ever play.

Designed by six-time major champion and golf icon Nick Faldo as his first course in the United States, Shadow Ridge, and it’s 7,000-yard 18-hole layout, is truly something special. Nick’s passion for strategic design shines throughout this picturesque layout, creating many risk-vs-reward opportunities that make golfers choose between the safe shot and the potentially exceptional one. Areas of water, significant sand bunkers, and various changes in elevation are all frequently in play here, and the intricate design of the the subtly undulating greens make finishing out any hole with a two-putt anything but a guarantee. Be sure to bring you “A” game if you’re visiting Shadow Ridge because, despite the five different teeing options, you will need it.

If the spectacular golf course isn’t enough to fill your day of fun, be sure to take the time to experience Shadow Ridge’s many amenities located right on the grounds. For golfers who like to warm up before their round, the practice facility here is the area’s best, and features everything from a full-service driving range and short game area with practice bunker, to a 12,000-square-foot chipping green and 8,000-square-foot putting green. The Marriott Golf Academy℠ offers personalized golf instruction for all ages and skill levels, while the onsite fitting studio will get you paired with exactly the right equipment to improve your game. Combine these amenities with the rest of the fun offered at the Shadow Ridge resort, and you’ll truly get to experience some of the best golf Southern California has to offer.
