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.

Unbelievable

Everything from the range to the 18th green is insanely well thought out. Great range with a view. 4 hour round at twilight, silent out in the mountains. What an impressive golf course. It is not a long golf course at all, but very challenging approach shots with elevated/tight greens. Not a lot of room for error. Off the tee it is very welcoming and enticing. 14, 15, 16, 17 is the best stretch of golf holes I’ve played. I also enjoyed the front 9 very much. Conditions are fantastic. Greens are firm but relatively slow while putting which was surprising. Overall, 9.5/10 for me.

Stay in the fairway!

We played the Mountain Course, the front 9 particularly, you will want to stay in the fairway as second cut is deep enough that just finding the ball can be difficult. Not many bump and run shots on this course. High lobs are required for sticking on the greens.

Generally good

I’ve played both courses and enjoyed them. However, last round the starters called us to tee off 35 minutes before our tee time. I didn’t show up 45 minutes early so I could hit 3 practice balls and hustle to the tee box. 10-15 minutes early is fine and generally understandable but 35 minutes early is inappropriate. We needed up waiting for the group in front of us in every tee box with no one behind us. Ridiculous.

The unique play in the desert

The Mountain Course continues to be an outstanding golfing experience. Challenging yet pristine beauty makes every hole such a unique day of golf. Friendly staff has risen to make the course and facilities so great during CV-19. Playing a course snuggled into the mountains makes for an amazing round of golf.

Favorite course in the valley

The most beautiful course in the Valley. Great pace of play. Never waited; never pushed.

Greens were a little sandy, but not bad. The rest of the course conditions were fantastic.

Practice areas are in good shape.

COVID restrictions in effect so no 19th hole.

Great staff.

Love this course.
