The Lakes Country Club

The Lakes Country Club Breathtaking views, exceptional golf and racquet sports amenities, and endless opportunities for fun.

The Lakes Country Club is a privately-gated club situated on 380 acres in the heart of Palm Desert, CA. Established in 1983, our magnificent clubhouse includes indoor and outdoor dining, Wine Room, Golf Shop, and Event Center all overlooking the majestic Santa Rosa Mountains. A defining characteristic of the club is “The Lakes' lifestyle” and a significant sense of community is expressed through a

busy, diverse, year-round dining, social and recreational calendar. Our Lifestyle & Wellness Center is available to Members who wish to enhance their well-being, offering a complete range of fitness experiences and therapeutic spa packages. At The Lakes, you’re supported by an experienced staff, dedicated to helping you reach your personal goals. Our Center features the latest in strength and cardiovascular equipment, spacious movement studios, dedicated Spin and Pilates studios, locker rooms, dry saunas, steam rooms, spa treatment suites, and a 25-meter lap pool, all supported by a full schedule of classes and activities. The Lakes' grounds consist of flourishing green lawns, mature shade, and ornamental trees, accented with desert flowers, and attractively landscaped street scenes all carefully integrated into the dominant landscape theme of the golf course, lakes, and waterfalls. Panoramic splendor best describes the spectacular 27 holes of Architect Ted Robinson-designed championship golf. Six sets of tees provide a challenge for players, at all levels. Surrounded with views of the Santa Rosa Mountains, strategically shaped fairways, lined with shade trees and stands of majestic palms, provide playable and visual enhancement to the game. An outstanding practice facility includes a 20-station Driving Range, two Putting Greens, a Chipping Green, and a pitch and sand bunker practice area; stand ready to help fine-tune your game. The Coachella Valley has become the place to enjoy the ever so popular Pickleball sport. Our Racquet Center is one of the best in the region, featuring 22 racquet courts including Tennis, Pickleball, Pop Tennis, and a spectacular Pavilion overlooking the Stadium Court. Our Pro Shop is complete with the latest in active sports attire & state-of-the-art equipment. Greeted at the entrance by cascading waterfalls, The Lakes' name becomes immediately obvious as you discover nearly 100 lakes and 44 individual pools with spas scattered throughout our three golf courses and park-like neighborhoods. 902 condominium homes are situated each with a unique golf course or lake view. Camaraderie is our watchword and the result is the most friendly, caring, supportive and fun-loving club in the Coachella Valley. From sports and recreation to dining and social events, there is something for everyone!
