Quick Pace, Friendly Staff, and a Fun Pete Dye Layout

Had a great golf adventure today at the Westin Rancho Mirage Pete Dye Course. It was our first time playing there, and the pace of play was quick, which made for a really enjoyable round. The greens were in great shape, just a bit on the slow side, but still rolled well.

The staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, the cost felt very fair, and practice balls were provided, which was a nice touch. Overall, everything was great, and I would definitely come back and play again.

Overcharging to the extent of embarrassment

It basically comes down to the attitude of the staff at most golf courses. Hear the entitlement and laziness is above and beyond here. The starter and Marshalls are basically indignant and the course itself is in very rough shape. Greens are completely abused.

Good track

Overall a good course. Not too difficult tee to green. Condition is good but some area do have bare spots in the rough. Greens are generally smooth.

Only complaint is it took me 10min to get a cart at the starter stand and the range disallow woods.

Will get better

First day open so it should get better. No driving in fairways. Greens were unbelievably slow. Pace of play was terrible - 3.5 hours for 12 holes and getting slower. Had to quit.

Wonderful first time course in California

I had a great time playing this course. It wasn't super hard. I had a decent level of challenge to it. The course was immaculate. My only real gripe was the pace of play. I got behind a foursome that would not let anybody play through and they really slowed everyone down by almost an hour, and the Ranger didn't correct them until they got to the 15th hole

This course was beautiful.

My first time playing this course and it was beautiful. Course was nice and green. We had a slow group in front of us but other than that we had a great time. I will definitely be back

Still a good track

I have played this course many times over the years and it is very consistent for all aspects and will continue to play in the future when visiting the area.

Note, the value is significantly better than the Desert Willow courses (where we often stay) with similar conditions and difficulty.

Beautiful course

Stunning views, greens are in beautiful condition. The only semi-complaint was that the only place to get something to eat was their Italian restaurant. Really just wanted a burger or sandwich.
