Hole #10
On your drive from the elevated tee with trees on the left, and out of bounds on the right, a ball into the trees requires a careful second shot. A pond on the right side can come into play. This fairway opens the green with a bunker on each side. The green slopes towards the front. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #11
On your drive, you are looking into the Santa Rosa Mountains in the distance. The fairway is guarded by trees on the right and a fairway bunker on the left side. The slightly rising fairway levels out 150 yards from the green, then goes down a shallow valley up to the putting surface which is protected by an imposing bunker on the front right and another on the left side. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #12
The shortest par 3 on the course; the green is not as large or wide as most at Bermuda Dunes. The green is well guarded by four bunkers. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #13
The longest hole on the course with a wide open fairway, although a drive drifting into the trees on the right will result in a tricky second shot. Long drives have to avoid a fairway bunker on the left. The elevated green is protected by three bunkers; it slopes away to the left, requiring a careful approach shot. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #14
You are faced with a tighter fairway than most. Trees on the left and two fairway bunkers place a premium on an accurate tee shot. A trio of bunkers guard both sides on the front of this sloping green. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #15
From an elevated tee, a slight dogleg right is protected by trees in an area which can create havoc with your second shot. The sloping green has two bunkers toward the front and a third on the left side. When the pin is located at the front, if your approach shot is to the back of the green, you are faced with a long slippery putt, too strong and you may be off the green. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #16
This long par 4 has trees on the right side and a drive here can cost you a shot. Beyond the fairway bunker on the left there is a wide open fairway. The green features two bunkers to the right and one along the left side. |
 |
|
| |
Hole #17
Considered the most difficult par 3 on the course, a solid drive is mandatory to reach the large elevated green. The rough on the left side of the green slopes quickly away, bringing the danger of rolling out of bounds. The putting surface is guarded by four bunkers, any of which can come into play. |
|
| |
Hole #18
A spectacular finishing hole, the signature hole at Bermuda Dunes is also its most picturesque. From the tee the fairway widens out with trees on both sides. The famous green is tucked behind the lake with large palm trees waiting to ambush any ball hit too far to the right, keeping it in the tree or swatting it into the water. The large green guarded by two bunkers slopes dramatically from the back to the front. This is a great hole. |

Hole #1
You drive from an elevated tee, trees on the left, and the palm trees on the side of the lake can grab a slice, or it can go into the lake. Beyond the lake the fairway widens and slopes downhill to the green and from right to left. Approaches from the right rough may have to contend with a large tree. The green is protected with three bunkers on the right and another large bunker on the left. This green slopes from back to front. |
|
|
| |
Hole #2
Considered by many to be the most challenging hole at Bermuda Dunes, the fairway is all uphill, slopes left, to a 60 yard deep three-tiered green. The fairway is narrow immediately off the tee. Trees and out of bounds on the left and half a dozen palm trees grouped together on the right poised to catch or swat down any ball hit in their direction. If you get past these palms, and miss the fairway, you are faced with a severe side hill second shot. Short of the green on the right side are trees, and two menacing bunkers on the left side, and two more on the right, demanding an accurate approach shot to the green. With a front pin placement, a long approach shot to the back of the green, results in a long delicate double breaking putt on a down slope to the hole. |
|
|
| |
Hole #3
This innocent appearing hole has trees on the left, tamarisk trees right along the out of bounds markers. A drive into the left trees will test your concentration on your second shot. The narrow approach to the green with bunkers on the right, left and back requires an accurate shot. The green slopes from back to front. |
|
|
| |
Hole #4
A wide open par 5, and from the tee you get another view of the mountains and San Jacinto. From 200 yards out you are challenged by trees on the right, and out of bounds on the left. This green slopes from the back to the front. |
|
|
| |
Hole #5
From the tee, across the valley, you can see the reflections of the clouds on Shadow Mountain, which gave this mountain its name. This fairway slopes down to 150 yards out, then down a small valley and up to the green. Out of bounds on the left, and lots of room on the right, but well treed. Two fairway bunkers call for an accurate tee shot. The green is guarded by a pesky bunker on the left front, with bunkers on the right and at the back. This contoured green slopes from back to front. |
|
|
| |
Hole #6
This hole slopes up to a green. On the left side a palm tree and a hedge can grab a wayward tee shot. The green features a large bunker on the right side and also bunkers on the left and at the back. The green slopes from the back and can give you some challenging pin placements. |
|
|
| |
Hole #7
This is a most interesting par 5 which gives you several options in your play. From the tee there is an out of bounds on the right and wide open fairway straight away. Three fairway bunkers on the right side may determine your tee shot. You may aim as close to the bunkers as you dare or to the wide open fairway front of you and slightly to the left. Your second shot requires a fascinating decision. You may elect to lay up to the lake, or go along the right side. Both options may be fraught with difficulties. From the lay up to the lake, your shot to the green has to carry the lake, across the cart path, and over a green side bunker to the narrow part of the green with bunkers at the back. If you opt to go up the right side, you have to be careful not to go too far right and out of bounds, or you can also hit the fairway and catch the slope into the water. A well placed shot does reward you with an approach shot to the green which takes the bunkers out of play. This hole and 18 for many are the two most interesting holes at Bermuda Dunes. |

|
| |
Hole #8
A par 3, sloping up to a green, which is framed by trees and bunkers on the left, a tree and bunkers on the right. A drive too strong and you can roll over the green which slopes from the back to the front. A front pin placement and a long putt must negotiate the break, and a tad too strong, and it may be off the green. |
|
|
| |
Hole #9
This par 4 requires a solid drive on the fairway to give the opportunity of carrying the lake on your second shot. A drive into the trees on the left leaves little possibility of going at the green, and a prudent decision will ask for a shot short of the lake. The rough on the right side of the fairway is treed, and slopes toward the first fairway. A shot here and you pretty well have to hit up to the lake. A palm tree on the left side of the lake can be in your line of flight, and missing left will probably land in the greenside bunker. This green with bunker just across the lake, and one on the left and right side, slopes from back to the front, and pin placements can result in a demanding and delicate putt. |
