Disappointed

I've played many Pete Dye courses around the world and this was typical in terms of elevated greens, generous fairways and multiple tee boxes. Disappointed in the pace of play with really impacted the value perception. The front nine was nothing special and the back nine had some of the spectacular views in the photo galleries online.

Spectacular layout and course conditions.

Biggest problem was that I expected the course to be located at PGA west, but it is actually at the La Quinta resort.

Took 20 minutes to find it, and it poorly signed!

Course is splendid and in superb shape.

Would have loved a course map!

A little pricey.

In all very enjoyable.

Pace of play was terrible. We waited for 15 minutes on every hole. Marshal came by and said there was nothing he could do about the delay.

The Best in America

I have been blessed to play 7 of the top 10 public play courses in the country and this is my favorite. I think it is in the 80’s this year on the charts but for me it’s the best. This is one of Dye’s first in Coachella Valley and the best. I have played including Dunes, Stadium, Citrus and Rancho Mirage.. I highly recommend for mid to high handicappers play it from 5,400 yards (I am a 16) and you will be challenged and have a boat load of fun. Oh by the way the scenery is off the charts.

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.
