The Dunes Course at PGA West is very challenging with multiple elevation changes and numerous large, deep bunkers and the wet conditions made for a tough round. The layout is magnificent and you’ll have to bring your “A” game to score well.

Loved it!

What a great value for afternoon play! It got dark and pretty windy before we were able to complete all 18 holes but we really enjoyed our round, and lunch before, at this beautiful course. We’ll definitely be back to get a full round in !

Enjoyed the layout. Fairways are not overly wide but the dormant grass is easy to play from. So no pressure to hit the fairways but the water hazards will keep you honest.!

Smallish green make it a good test of iron play.

Fairways and greens in great condition although there were a lot of old ball mark damage on the greens that were smooth to putt over. Of course there are always unrepaired fresh ball marks that far to many players don’t repair. That applies to all public courses though.

Nice vistas around the golf course too..!

Some tees were hard to find. Course direction signs were made of paper. Very tacky. For what they charge there should be nicer direction signs.

Some beautiful holes.

A bit pricey for the course. Have played better courses for less. We belong to a top 100 course (Pete Dye course) guest fees less.

A great course

I love this course, the scenery on the back nine is beautiful.

The course is in good condition.

It's quite a challenging course and can be difficult for the high handicap player. There are several water holes.

We play this course once a year when we come to Palm Springs.

The staff is very friendly

I think this course is a good value for the money

Great Conditions

Coarse was in great shape,, greens were fast and took to long getting use to them. Make sure your short game is dialed in or you will struggle.
