A must play for anyone visiting La Quinta
I've played the Mountain Course at La Quinta twice now, nine years apart, and both times it was the first course I played on a weeklong trip. This course is a great way to start a golf vacation. With its terrific mountain views, Pete Dye design and friendly staff, this is a terrific golf experience. There are so many great views, but the last few holes are really special. The highlight for most is the par-3 16th, which has an elevated back tee that looks down at least 100 feet to the green. That view alone is worth playing the course, but there are many other highlights on a course that's both fun and certainly challenging, though not nearly as hard as many Dye layouts.
Let down
I have played this track many years ago and love the design. The problem is they are not maintaining the course as it should be. Too many burned out spots, greens are atrocious for this level of a course with bare spots on the greens. Not only that but I paid premium prices in spite of it being 107°, that day. With a little work this could be a world-class track again. Pete Dye would be rolling over in his grave right now

Bucket list course
It was a good all round experience....
Had a bit of bfast looking out over the course at 0800 and thought it was going to be very windy but by the time we teed off at 0851 it calmed way down.
The starter gave us a quick rundown of what to expect and strategy for playing the Pete Dye Mountain course.
My twosome was paired with a twosome who had played the course many times so they helped us with the teeshot lines. Very few of our shots held on the hardpan, raised greens (had to come in very high) but they putted true.

Wow! We are so happy you enjoyed your round, Calore! We look forward to seeing you again soon at PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course.

Disappointed PGA West
Not sure why this course would bare the name PGA West…. Course conditions were not good. Greens had many burn spots, fairways same.

Beautiful challenging course
I’ve played the Mountain course over 20 times and really enjoyed the challenge but the last few times have found it very wet and overwatered. On nearly all of my fairway drives my ball had mud on it. Not something you expect in March and April

Hello, LeeNewport. Thanks so much for your review. We're so glad you enjoyed your round at PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course. That's what we like to hear! We hope to see you again soon!

jsgates, thank you for the awesome rating! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another great experience, and thanks for choosing PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course.
Great course!
A very nice layout. Good course conditions. Pace of play was slow in the back nine. No one was stressed about it though. Enjoyed the round.

Hi, aldo56. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course.
Course in great shape except the greens
Greens are very slow with granular fertilizer spread out over the greens. It was like sand on the greens, you couldn't get a true roll. Despite the greens, I still recommend playing because eventually, the fertilizer will be gone and it's a PGA West course.

Hi, rtmarett! Thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at PGA WEST Pete Dye Mountain Course!
Ok but not great
I was eagerly anticipating the back nine as everyone says it’ has outstanding views and layout. Yeah maybe 15-18 and there are still many houses in site. Front 9 was cramped but had water on a number of holes and less houses on the fairways. Conditions were fair with a number of brown patches as to be expected in the desert. Be aware golf sandals could get you rejected from play. Worth it for under $100 with a deal time…hope the stadium course lives up to the hype as this one was just ok.

Great layout and challenging course
Fairway and green was good but rough were dry out ( many brown spots). You can’t expect winter condition on April. Many golf courses were dry out too not just PGA courses . So I will like to play here again. And I highly recommend this course if you visit the desert

Fun course
Course was in amazing shape and had great facilities and Practice area. The back 9 was picturesque with several holes playing up against the cragy mountians and desert wilderness. Some of the lowland holes played more like a dunes course, with not alot of vegetation or trees. I particularly liked some of the fairway long. sandy waste areas. That was a pretty unique feature I have not seen. The course was challenging with many elevated, well protected greens, but not overly difficult if you can hit you short irons high and true.
