About De Anza Golf
Estates
De Anza Golf Estates, located between Borrego Springs Road and Palm Canyon Drive, is a golf-course and desert-residential Borrego Springs neighborhood with fairway views and wide-open sky. The neighborhood reads as low-slung desert modern and classic ranch homes, with patios oriented to morning light and mountain silhouettes. The character concentrates around the Rams Hill Clubhouse, where tee times, a quiet bar, and terrace tables set the day’s rhythm. Community pillars in town include the Borrego Art Institute, the Borrego Springs Performing Arts Center, and the Borrego Springs Farmers Market for local color. Landscaping leans xeriscape, and streets feel calm under dark-night conditions. Days revolve around golf, hiking, and gallery stops, with Anza-Borrego Desert State Park framing the horizon.
