La Quinta Resort & Club

Title says it all, world class golf on the center stage . Immaculate course and views, facilities on par. We were 15 minutes behind schedule by hole 3, being a 2some behind an elderly 4some. One call to the pro shop, 1 rude and 1 kind Marshall later, and they allowed us to jump around skipping hole 4, playing 17 holes in total just before sundown. Overall I would do it again at the discounted rate that I received

Martial wasn’t out late from what it looked like. Had a group in front that took forever.

First time playing this course. The clubhouse is what to expect from a Palm Springs/Palm Desert resort. They load your clubs and have your cart ready while you check in. Staff was equally friendly and professional. The first sight of the course grounds was breathtaking. The course was in perfect condition. My group was the last to go out at 12:09. The group ahead of us kept good pace and no one behind us. Greens were very firm(as they should be), so there were not many ball marks on the greens. Fairways were plush and the rough was pretty thick. I can't wait to play there again.

My only complaint was the glizzy at the turn, 6/10. Other than that, hard to beat.

great and playable track. tough pins but forgiving fairways. greens ran true despite the steady drizzle all afternoon. teed off at 1:38pm and got 15 holes in before darkness.

The course was in pristine condition!!! Had a tee time at 2pm unfortunately couldn’t play last few holes due to it getting dark. Otherwise fabulous day, round and the course was in great condition. I will be back but earlier tee time this time of year.

Truly great layout, if you haven’t played it, you should!

My son and I are 20 handicaps, so go by that baseline. We chose the Dunes course from online reviews as we were specifically looking for the most playable course of the PGA West courses for our handicap indexes. The course is scenic and aesthetically wonderful. Great pro shop, range, etc. We found the Dunes course, however, to be very punitive. Flag placements might as well have been for Sunday at Augusta and the greens themselves are very hard (even after a heavy rain) and rarely hold a shot. Plus, half are bottle caps and undulating so any errant shot likely will roll off and down a hill. There's just no forgiveness. Fairways are in great shape but it's not easy to find an even lie. My advice: very challenging so if you are not at minimum a 10, hcp you will not find this enjoyable.

Played on Christmas Day. I played as a single, got paired up with a wonderful threesome (a mom and her two adult sons, who were playing from two different tee boxes). It had rained the day prior. So, I'm not surprised it was cart path only, except for the fact that neither at check-in nor from the starter did anyone tell us. But the marshall rudely came up and insisted that I was told it was, as I waited to hit my 2nd shot from the middle of the fairway. Instead of kindly mentioning it, he argued with me that that both the starter and the check-in employee told me (as if he was there) when neither did. Also, I'm not an idiot, if I had been told and knew it was cart path only, I wouldn't go off the path on the FIRST fairway in view of both the pro shop and the starter. And, a simple friendly approach and I wouldn't be mentioning it here. EXCEPT, we were approached coming off of the 10th green by a much friendlier marshall, who said we needed to keep up with the group in front of us and that we were "off pace" and that the group (3 men playing from the tee box behind us) were waiting for us. I guess he forgot that the GPS on the cart tells you your pace...we were 1 (yes one) minute behind, and it's CART PATH ONLY. But, he was at least friendly when he was being rude? We played 9 holes of cart path only in exactly 2:08. This experience would have been an easy 5 stars if the employees didn't hate their jobs or thought before they spoke. This is the difference between a 3 and 5 star review. Just be nice, assume the best in people. Be better, be kinder, and I'll be the first one to review you by name as outstanding.

Amazing day. Staff was really friendly and helpful.

Would recommend. Round was 3:30 so pace of play was great

I came to the area for my birthday golf trip and wow was it worth it. This was the second course I played and it was worth every cent. From the bag drop off being inviting and friendly to the pro shop cracking jokes and being very helpful, this establishment makes golfers feel welcome and excited to play. Course conditions were amazing and the greens were a tad bit long but understandable as they were letting them grow for the American Express match. Difficult, iconic, and overall amazing course. Tough shots over the water and through lakes but very doable as long as you don’t try to be a hero on every shot. 10/10 will be returning next year.

Booked on GN, late but reasonable Teetime 12:54, being there earlier. Staff really friendly letting us out, Course in absolute great conditions. A dream

The course is in phenomenal condition, the tee boxes are immaculate and the greens rolled true. It’s a tough course but will always be grateful to be on one of Jack’s courses.

Whatever problem they had with mowing the rough is fixed. We encountered no issues with the conditions. The views are spectacular and the Pete Dye course is challenging and interesting. Maybe we got lucky but the pace of play was very acceptable. Staff is professional and friendly. All four of us would play again for sure.

I went during over-seeding, so it was cartpath only. The tee boxes, fairways, and greens were lush.. I can’t wait to come back!
