The Stadium Course at PGA WEST

The course was in fantastic shape. Second time playing it; course was much more difficult than I remember. That being said, I would go back to play in a heartbeat.

Make sure you practice your short game, as the green complexes were quite difficult, with runoffs/collection areas around most greens.

A must play if you’re in the area! We came to came to La Quinta for my Wife’s 50th birthday and she allowed me to play a couple days after her celebration, since it was a bucket list course. Unfortunately we didn’t get play all 18 due our tee time at 2:06 pm. That’s the only downside of trying to save a couple hundred bucks, the morning rate was super expensive.. I was able to go in front a few player as the sun was setting and play Alcatraz! We definitely plan to return for my 50th birthday in May and I’m paying the extra to get the entire round in!

The experience was poor and not worth the time and effort. Too many other great courses in this area to bother with the Stadium Course. To pay around $500 for a round and to have a 5 hour and 20 minute round on a poorly conditioned course isn’t worth it.

Not sure if the rangers slept in that day, but we would often have three groups on the same hole waiting 5-15 minutes to hit a shot and we had a 9:54a tee time. Can’t imagine anyone teeing off after 12:30 finished before sunset.

If you are hitting your ball well you will love this challenge, if not, just look around. It is gorgeous!! I was looking around most of the day. Love it and can’t wait to play again. Maybe my irons will play well the next time

Had a phenomenal day but an unforgiving round. Course was in great shape and played like nothing else. Be prepared for an errant shot and an awful recovery shot. Still one of the best times I have had playing a round.

This course is extremely challenging with fast, extremely undulating greens, and lots of false fronts. We had a great time playing the course.

Got an outstanding deal to play this course just 8 days after the American Express tournament was played! Wow, what an experience!! Great conditions, friendly staff. A must for anyone coming to this area to play golf.

Too disorganized at first hole. Pro shop dumps u on starter who has 50 sheets of paper on his table. Not friendly. All groups teeing off late. The late time groups there was no direction to play quickly and we saw the Marshall and he just drove by the group ahead of us that were definetly out of position and holding us up. We played Terra Lago at the exact same time and got it in the day before.

Living off thier past rrputation

My only complaint was the glizzy at the turn, 6/10. Other than that, hard to beat.

I came to the area for my birthday golf trip and wow was it worth it. This was the second course I played and it was worth every cent. From the bag drop off being inviting and friendly to the pro shop cracking jokes and being very helpful, this establishment makes golfers feel welcome and excited to play. Course conditions were amazing and the greens were a tad bit long but understandable as they were letting them grow for the American Express match. Difficult, iconic, and overall amazing course. Tough shots over the water and through lakes but very doable as long as you don’t try to be a hero on every shot. 10/10 will be returning next year.

Had an enjoyable round at the Stadium Course. Unfortunately pace of play only allowed us to complete 17 holes. Course was in great condition. My only disappointment was that the pin location sheet provided was inaccurate on every single hole. It is very difficult to manage approach shots when you don’t have the correct information.

This course is phenomenal

A must when in the area

Challenging yet rewarding

Beautiful views and course was in impeccable shape

My only minor complaint is pace of play but that’s more patrons than have no clue how to behave. Also if your drive goes 155. No need to wait on a par 5 that group ahead leaves the green on a par 5 to hit your second shot. 2 minutes delay per hole ads half hour of wasted time per round

Have played The Stadium Course the past three years and love it. They just came out of over seeding so the green were just a bit slow but still great. Love this place

Great conditions, don't really see why it is Cart Path Only, the fairways are perfect. Greens are rolling good.

I want to say if you want to play a nice course, pga west is your must choice
