Westin Rancho Mirage Golf Resort & Spa - Pete Dye Resort Course

We enjoyed the course very much. It has some of Pete Dye's trademark fetures (elevated greens with surrounding traps, railroad ties framing water hazards, etc.) but is not as "tricky" as many of Dye's courses are. The course was in excellent shape and greens were fast and true. We would definitely play this course again on a future trip.

Love the course, unfortunately it took us 2:45 to play the front 9. Had four groups on a hole on multiple holes. Definitely needed better marshalling as we saw a few holes ahead of us with no groups on them. Otherwise course is typically one of my go to courses when I plan my trips to the desert.

The course was in great shape from tees boxes to greens. The greens ran true and were just right speed wide. The course has some really challenging holes and many have water features that are in play. I will be returning. The only drawback was that I wanted to use cash to pay for my reservation and the Pro Shop only takes credit cards since Covid. Covid is over and I think this policy should be changed.

2 guests from out of town plus a 4th assigned on the source morning of.

3 or 4 holes in, the "overseer" of gameplay informed us that we were playing to slow. (Age range all 50+ playing at 8:40AM.) We saw our group was not playing their best and had already let one party play through, however we were told not to play the hole if we were hitting 2 over. He then proceeded to watch and follow our entire play really rattling our group and ruining the entire experience. one of our members had been staying at the property and had easily dropped over $2500 for the weekend and was extremely livid. We confronted the guy a few holes later and he didn't back down, he just dug in his heels. One and done. DO NOT recommend. Their concern is not the betterment of the experience for their guests and have no interest in ensuring a successful round with people that were more than accommodating. Even for $165 a pop. The guy was a supreme *** and should be fired for "doing his job".

Course was in very good condition and pretty surroundings.

The greens were elevated and that made it difficult unless you dropped the ball right on the flag.

I plan to try it again and see how it goes.

Seeing the carts lined up with tee time starts looked like tournament play, but with all the people waiting to tee off, it organized a large group quickly. The course was manicured with holes you could see from the tee box so you knew where to aim. Putting greens were fair and rolled nicely.

Nice course greens were great. People were very friendly nice views.

We played at 7:28. The pratice range are verry nice. The course was in great shape and the green are nice. Great value for the price.

Keep an eye on the GPS screen, there are a couple lakes that are not visible ( but reachable) from the tee. Many long par fours from the tips.

Slowest greens in the city. Putted like Velcro. No beverage cart service that day and no one told us before teeing off.

Checking elsewhere you’ll find better layouts, much better rolling greens and better amenities.

Fairways and greens were good. Ruff was in bad shape in many places was dirt
