| About Us |
Nestled between the mesmerizing San Jacinto and Santa Rosa mountains, the Coachella Valley is like no other place on earth. Some might even say it's magical. Our particular slice of heaven is an almost unbelievable combination of 360° mountain views, soaring palm trees and blooming bougainvilleas beneath sun-kissed skies. Recognized for its elegant ambiance and unique luxury lifestyle, Morningside is known for its exclusive gated community, beautiful golf course, and superb clubhouse facilities.
Our award-winning clubhouse draws inspiration from our distinct environment and pays tribute to the beautiful design that creates a vibrant social hub, and a masterful centerpiece to the full wonder of Morningside. |

| Club History Overview |
Founded by Visionaries
Established in 1982, The Morningside project was the culmination of a lifelong dream of real estate developer, Ed Johnsen. It was the second of two Ed Johnsen projects in the desert.
Morningside was the most upscale project in the desert at the time. Jack Nicklaus was brought in to design the golf course, a premier interior design firm from San Francisco designed the Clubhouse and the first teaching pro was the famous Claude Harmon, father of Butch Harmon, widely known as the premier teacher in the game of golf. |
|
|
|
| Club Lifestyle |
| Our members enjoy a range of active sports, recreational pursuits, and fitness offerings... as well as opportunities to slow down and simply relax. It might be time spent enjoying a hot stone treatment in our spa, savoring a leisurely lunch on the wraparound deck, or experiencing the pleasures of a game enjoyed through a variety of "clubs within the club." Morningside members have the space and the places to truly relax and unwind however they choose. Morningside is an authentically magical setting that inspires activity and relaxation all at once. Our panoramic view of the San Jacinto mountains, lush natural landscapes, striking architecture, and airbrushed sunsets conspire to create an environment that exhilarates the senses and nourishes the soul - completing the sense that we are all truly at home. |

| We've been in the Morningside community for over 12 years and absolutely love being a part of the Morningside family. We have made so many beautiful friendships throughout the years. The golf is amazing, for men, ladies, and couples. Our social events are over the top, from the food, staff and service… in our opinion best by far in the valley! If you want a 10-star Club, Morningside is where you need to be a part of. |

| I love The Club at Morningside, my husband loves it, my two adult sons love it and all our friends love it. We have been members of the Club for 15 years and every single year the Club has improved itself and its facilities and generally upped its game. There is one constant through… the service, which has not changed nor did it need to do so. It has been, and consistently been, a ten out of ten. Two other things that are important to me… first, The Club at Morningside is the most inclusive and welcoming Club and community of members I have ever experienced. Truly amazing. Secondly, the Full Family Membership is brilliant and one of a kind. My adult sons are members in their own right, fully able to enjoy golf and tennis and the gym, spa and dining, with the ability to host their own guests. All this as part of my membership at no additional cost to me. I'll say it again… I love The Club at Morningside! |

| The golf course is always in fabulous condition and I was impressed by the intangibles... Morningside is so unbelievably friendly; everyone knows our names! The service is always incredible, from the valet service to the golf shop, to the staging area to the Lounge. The food is divine, particularly when compared to the offerings at other local clubs and restaurants. There is something intrinsically wonderful about Morningside. The members are friendly, unassuming and kind. The staff is the same, from our Member Relations to our General Manager! We have been welcomed by so many members, enjoying meals in their homes, or dancing at events. It has been delightful! The challenge is it is difficult to convey intangibles in a website or a drive-by at the club. Our strength is our people... Morningside has warm welcomes, many magic moments and is our forever club! |

| Our first experience at Morningside was the warm welcome we received when we entered the Golf Pro Shop. The Director of Golf at the time, met us at the entry his entire staff to personally welcome us new members. That pretty well set the quality of standards for Morningside! Over the past thirty years we have thoroughly enjoyed the Clubhouse amenities, the friendly staff and membership. Needless to say, the golf course with its impeccable conditions was the main reason we chose Morningside. To state that we are overjoyed with our decision would be understated. The membership is the strength of our club, we have enjoyed endless warmth and friendly friendships, they rank at the top of our list. |

| Today |
Today, Morningside is purely a private-equity club owned by the membership. Its niche in a desert full of clubs is the genuine camaraderie shared by members. Morningside's bylaws restrict the membership size to two hundred and twenty-five, which equates to three and one half hour rounds of golf, no tee time lotteries and no outside non-member events.
