Fantastic course

The course was in fantastic shape. Second time playing it; course was much more difficult than I remember. That being said, I would go back to play in a heartbeat.

Make sure you practice your short game, as the green complexes were quite difficult, with runoffs/collection areas around most greens.

Terrific Experience

We were partnered with lovely folks for our first time playing this course.

The course was in good condition and unlike any course we have played before.

Challenging yet playable.

After we finished we enjoyed a beverage at the bar and had the most lovely and cheerful bartender.

So glad we had this opportunity to play this course.

Bucket list track

A must play if you’re in the area! We came to came to La Quinta for my Wife’s 50th birthday and she allowed me to play a couple days after her celebration, since it was a bucket list course. Unfortunately we didn’t get play all 18 due our tee time at 2:06 pm. That’s the only downside of trying to save a couple hundred bucks, the morning rate was super expensive.. I was able to go in front a few player as the sun was setting and play Alcatraz! We definitely plan to return for my 50th birthday in May and I’m paying the extra to get the entire round in!

Decent Course, Uninterested Staff, Terrible Tee Boxes

Played Stadium and Nick the prior day and LOVED the experience. Courses were in amazing condition and the staff there went out of their way to make us feel welcome.

Almost the exact opposite experience at this course. Showed up 2 hours before our tee time to get checked in, grab a bite and then hit the range. Person who checked us in was great, but that's where it stopped.

We grabbed breakfast and there were 4 other patrons eating. However, that seemed to be too much for the waiter as he was frazzled and took forever to get our order - we actually ended up just going to the counter to order after we were left sitting for 20 mins without water, coffee or service.

Food took forever to come out, then had to rush to the range. Once we got to the Starter, he was nice enough but an older gentleman who was a marshal came up and was very terse with us, asking us what we were doing and why we hadn't checked in yet - we were there 10 mins early to make sure we didn't hold up pace of play. When we explained to him we were waiting for the Starter to finish so we could check in, the Marhsal just stopped talking to us and acted like we didn't exist.

We finally got out. Course was in decent condition, but for the price expected the fairways to be better. And every tee box was destroyed - almost no place to put a tee down on any of the Par 3s and most of the Par 4s.

Fairways were fine, but tones of unfilled divots (not the courses fault, just the players who didn't do the favor of what they should have done).

CartLadys were nice and we eventually ran into a different starter who was much kinder.

However, I'll never be playing this course again. Just such a HUGE jump down in quality from the other PGA West Courses I've played.

Poor experience

The experience was poor and not worth the time and effort. Too many other great courses in this area to bother with the Stadium Course. To pay around $500 for a round and to have a 5 hour and 20 minute round on a poorly conditioned course isn’t worth it.

Not sure if the rangers slept in that day, but we would often have three groups on the same hole waiting 5-15 minutes to hit a shot and we had a 9:54a tee time. Can’t imagine anyone teeing off after 12:30 finished before sunset.

Fun Pete Dye

Fun Pete Dye course and typical. Short irons to many greens thinking birdie, only to be scrambling to make bogey. Back 9 is much more scenic and makes the round worth it. Pace of play is slow, but not terrible. Overall fun course which gives you a taste of the Mountain Course scenery with a little more reasonable price point.

Spectacular experience in desert

Fastest greens we’ve played on in a while, running at a 12. Course was in perfect condition, as they were ready to host a major college tournament.

Snail pace

Pace of play was horrible, the marshals were useless and couldn’t get play back on pace. We had to finish in the darkness.

Stay out of the bunkers

The bunkers are so deep and the sand heavy; my front nine score was reflection of missed bunker shots. Got used to it by the time we made the turn. Stay out of them if you can.

If you are hitting your ball well you will love this challenge, if not, just look around. It is gorgeous!! I was looking around most of the day. Love it and can’t wait to play again. Maybe my irons will play well the next time
