PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course

Staff were friendly and helpful

Course was very challenging, loved the course

Truly great layout, if you haven’t played it, you should!

Amazing day. Staff was really friendly and helpful.

Would recommend. Round was 3:30 so pace of play was great

Whatever problem they had with mowing the rough is fixed. We encountered no issues with the conditions. The views are spectacular and the Pete Dye course is challenging and interesting. Maybe we got lucky but the pace of play was very acceptable. Staff is professional and friendly. All four of us would play again for sure.

Gosh sooosliw and so many flies invade you as you wait in every hole

Great course with views that are hard to come by. Staff is great and the overall experience is worth the money.

I have played this course several time in the past and it was great, this round was horrible conditions second cut was ankle deep we spent a lot of time looking for balls but did find more than I lost.

The rough was ridiculous. If your ball wondered off the fairway it was almost impossible to find unless you had the whole foursome hunting for it. Not good for pace of play either. CUT THE ROUGH DOWN!!!!!!!!

To charge over $200 with the course in its current condition is criminal. They claim the rain doesn’t allow them to cut the rough/fairway, but we played plenty of other courses in Indio/Palm Springs this weekend that were in immaculate condition for half the cost. Views are spectacular, but not worth it when you’re essentially hitting from the rough when you’re in the fairway, the rough is a forest, and the greens are rolling at a 6!? Do better PGA…

This course is a ripoff. We arrived to be told it was cart path only. The fairways are overgrown, and are not cut back. The rough is way too long and you cannot find your balls. The sand bunkers have little or no sand and the tee boxes are shaggy. Marshalls did drive around however they never stopped as they were probably tired of all the complaints. To make matters worse after our 5-1/2 hour round we were told we could not take our clubs up to the bag drop. This course should be closed until they can get it in proper shape. To be charging $200+ to play this is just plain greed.

I’m sure under normal conditions this course is terrific but in its current state it’s unplayable. The rough is U.S. Open thick and the fairways haven’t been mowed in several days.

The pro shop staff was courteous and refunded our Green fees after we saw the conditions on the first hole. That’s the right move and I’m grateful for that.

PGA West, including the Stadium course and the public 36-hole facility home to the Pete Dye Dunes and Pete Dye Mountain courses, is fresh off of an extensive three-year, multi-million-dollar renovation by Tim Liddy, Dye's long-time right-hand man. The architectural team hand-dug around the bunkers and greens of all three courses to restore them to their original shapes and contours. The Pete Dye Clubhouse also received a makeover, including a casual new restaurant called The Bunker Bar, home to two new Trackman 4 golf simulators available to the public. Playing the Mountain Course takes golfers on an epic journey into the foothills of the Santa Rosa Mountains on the back nine. If your ball doesn't end off pinging off of the rocks at some point, you've played well. The scenery makes the Dye-induced doubles more tolerable.

Showed up to the starter and was informed we would be teeing off 15-20 minutes behind. Played the first hole and had to wait for 2 groups to play the second hole. Then on hole 3 one of the carts died/ malfunctioned. Called the clubhouse twice to get a replacement and didn’t get one until the turn at hole 9. Marshall had attitude about the whole situation saying they didn’t have a lot of carts. Then when we pulled up to the clubhouse the employee said they had tons of carts… smh. Conditions weren’t optimal I assume because of the season. All practice ranges were closed as well. A lot of money for an average experience.

The overall attitude towards pace of play is very weak. 5 hour rounds are the staff’s expectation
