I'm a beginning golfer, so long par-5 holes are beyond challenging for me. Actually, when you're already on your 4th shot and can barely see the green, you might go beyond discouraged to actually pissed. Lucky for me, Desert Willow is an executive course with no par 5s. The grass is kept in good condition and the staff is friendly. I never feel rushed or embarassed for not being very good, which is important, or I wouldn't keep playing! On top of all that, it's not too far from my house, and it's pretty cheap. Hoping to be out there a lot more often, now that the weather's getting nice!
