JUST DON’T…they should pay you to play

If putting on greens that resemble the surface of the moon is your idea of fun, this is your course. We were unaware that a greens keeper F’d up royally and applied a chemical solution to the greens during the extreme heat of March. Needless to say…NO BUENO!!! A worthy track, but save it for next year. I wouldn’t play it again for free.

Great day

Everything was in wonderful shape except for the greens. The staff was very upfront with the conditions of the greens and they were extremely friendly. The group on front of us were 2 holes behind and didn’t care. There was no marshal on the course to push them either. Otherwise a beautiful day in paradise

Terrible

Greens were absolutelya disaster … totally dead, and worst of all the course never mentioned it while making a tee time. Can’t believe Weston does business this way. Called the course later and left my number. They never returned the call.

Greens

We were down for a week of golf and played the Westin course on Saturday. We were very disappointed to play and find out once we were done on the course that the greens were in bad shape. Apparently someone mixed the wrong items together and killed the greens . It would have been nice to know this ahead of time or at least before we reed off. Usually courses let you know that they have an issue before you start playing. Very disappointing

Greens were dirt

They killed off the greens in March. The rest of the course was nice. The greens were all dirt pretty much and hacked up. Suggest to avoid till greens come back. Sadly. We over paid to play this.

Westin Rancho Mirage

Course was enjoyable, but the greens were in awful condition to being scorched from severe heat earlier in the season. Besides that, this resort and course are very enjoyable

Dirt greens

All 18 greens were dead. Had to putt on dirt. Apparently someone used the wrong chemicals on the greens instead of fertilizer (that’s the story several employees were sticking to .). They are attempting a solution to the problem, but don’t know when it will be resolved.

Greens were in bad shape due to early spring heat and transition to summer grass, we played them as 2 putts max after getting on the green.

They lost their greens

Greens all burned out would have been nice to know when booking. When they get this fixed it is a great place to play.
