PGA WEST Pete Dye Dunes Course

I’ve been playing this course for over 35 years. This Summer they redesigned all the greens and switched from bent/ Bermuda to TifDwarf/ Bermuda grass. The greens are much bigger than before and completely tricked out. Who ever did the redesign should pay off the LSD next time. There are areas that area ridiculous to putt. This course is now up there with the Norman and Terra Lago North for having some of the most difficult public greens in the Valley

Great course, nice layout. The staff was help and so was the club pro. Definitely rebooking here.

Pointing at my 8 year old daughter with his false statement,and treating my group like transpasser . Ruined whole mood playing at all ,would be happy to have a call with their management.Beware if you can’t handle racism services.

I played here with my son in the PGA Family Championship. The event was amazing. The first round was on the Dunes Course.

It is important to note that I really don't like Pete Dye courses, especially the green complexes.

The lay out of the course was fine. Good shots taking aggressive lines was rewarded with shorter and simpler approach shots. That is typical of Pete Dye and I loved that aspect of the Dunes.

It is important to note that they just reopened the greens about a month ago. The need to get more play and mature. They are rock hard and every green is contoured like a Ruffles Potato Chip. Be prepared for well executed shots to spin off the green's multiple false fronts or have it rocket off the shoulder into a sand or grass bunker. Leave your green repair tool in your bag. You will not need it.

Ok course, new greens, did not hold at all...Super slow play not addresses by course Marshall ( Group in front of us hitting numerous shots from all over the course, Course Marshall watched them on three occasions and did not say anything to speed up play, with two open holes in front of them

We played this course several years ago and it was one of our favorites. I was greatly disappointed on my return. The starter mentioned they had redone the greens last year and they were hard and not holding shots very well. I could of lived with that change but wasn't ready for, nor a fan of, the complete reshaping of the greens that make them play like an upside down bowl. I lost count of how many shots I thought were decent enough to end up on the green but discovered the ball had found an area that ran off down to a swale. Left, right, short, long, the run-offs were everywhere. Never again at the Dunes.

Wonderful day at the Dunes,

The greens are really tough to play.

Really sloppy and hard.

The difficulty is really around the greens.

Have played here many times in the past. Always thought the course was a challenge but fair. Did not like the recent changes to the course. Arrived to find out there was no GPS on the cart. The driving range was hitting off the mat and the golf balls were coated in sand. The greens were changed to the original design which meant larger and the shoulders were rounded. The greens would not hold a shot and rolled off. Not sure who the course is designed for but it obviously was not

Typical Pete Dye course, visually intimidating tee shots , runoffs on greens and perfectly placed bunkers.

I have played couple of the PGA west courses before I would say that this one was special price. Even though the undulated dream possible sometimes, it couldn’t have been more beautiful and fun. The views of the golf course from any hole are spectacular and the mountain, La Quinta Cove backdrop is breathtaking. It’s a fantastic course in fantastic condition and even if you are not a low handicap golfer, you are sure to have a blast and enjoy pristine condition of this fabulous course.

Always enjoy playing the Pete Dye Dunes course. I want to take a moment and comment on the staff. From the start we arrived we were greeted with friendly bag attendants to great pro shop staff, starter and course marshal. Had drinks and appetizers to finish the day with a great view of the golf course, can’t beat the weather either, Thanks to a great team effort at your course. Indio

The greens are tough. You need to be accurate or your ball ran off the greens. The starter let us on early and we finished our round in less than 4 hours
