La Quinta Mountain: #15
#15 on La Quinta's Mountain is laying along the base of the mountains - stay tight to the base and go for this par 5 in two. The green stays snug up against the base and will not be in full view.

Slow play

Not worth playing if they aren't going to marshall the course. We quit after 11 holes taking 3 plus hours. It would have been a 5 plus hour round. Unacceptable pace of play

PGA Dye course

Were used to courses being in much better shape during peak season in Palm Desert. The greens had a lot of marks on them, the areas around the fairway were not pretty and the driving range is below average. The back 9 was much nicer than the front. The service was excellent and the people friendly.

Challenging Terrain

Course in great shape. The up and down terrain seemed to warrant up one club on shots to the green. Loved that no 2 holes are the same. Will definitely play again. Knowing the course is a stroke saver.

Packed

Nice staff in the shop .Starter friendly.

But we got out 20 minutes late

First 9 on time 2 hours but second nine long waits took us 3 hours . Reason ?? May be because somebody walked the course? Played it for the 4 th time but never had this experience.

New owner’s?

Beautiful Course. Terrible Day. We were excited to experience this tremendous course unfortunately the entire day was ruined by the ":foursome" behind us. It consisted of 3 carts, 3 adult golfers and 3 non golfing children between the ages of 5 - 8 I suspect. The yelling and screaming and rolling down the hills by the children lasted all day. I just can't imagine why this was allowed on a course with this pedigree. We were also paired with a couple who actually congratulated each other on the completion of 18 holes of real golf ( we do not blame the course for this as they have no way of knowing that this was the couples first full round of golf ) Very difficult day.
