Ritz-Carlton Rancho Mirage

Beautifully maintained course with enough challenge for every level of golfer.

If you try hard, you could lose a ball. Mostly wide fairways, and fair greens. It got a little backed up, so we replayed the front nine at twilight.

Great layout and some holes challenge any level of golfer.

The pace of play was slow. Conditions were worse than others in the area. Lots of browned out areas on the fairway and the worst was no real sand in many of the green side bunkers making it almost impossible to hit out of the high walls. I was excited to play before the round but disappointed after. The price was too high for the overall experience.

From 7th hole onwards we had 3-4 groups per hole. We called the ProShop to advise and we were told that they did not have a Marshall on the course. They said that there was nothing that they could do about pace of play. For this amount of money, they should have a Marshall on the course. Very disappointing and it was a 5 hour round. We had a tee time of 12:10.

I have played this course two years in a row now. The bunkers need sand and the greens are slow.

This course is in very good shape. Hard to read greens. I found it very long for women as there is no forward tees, you are playing the whites.

We had dinner at the Fisherman's Landing. The service was just ok but the food was terrible. Both our plates arrived cold and I had the halibut but couldn't cut into one of the pieces. Terrible experience.

Unfortunately the foursome ahead of us was slow and there wasn’t a marshal to speed them along.

This put a damper on an otherwise nice day.

From Check in to departure, the staff was professional and friendly. Played an afternoon 9 holes. Pace of play was excellent and the course was in nice shape ... a very relaxing afternoon.

The course is very nice, but there is not ranger to keep things moving. I had. great time, but the pace was super slow. Had a 2:00 start time but showed up early. As they were not busy, the starter let me tee off at 1:25 - a very nice gesture. The course is truly beautiful and the greens nice and consistent.

Everything was good except the conditions were not nearly as good as the other four locations we played in the area. Also there was nobody in the bag drop area when we arrived. Not a major issue for me but some others kept waiting and they didn’t appear during the wait
