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

The course is much improved from 2022. It’s not back up to the level of the 2010’s but you can tell this management is trying to bring it back. It’s always been a nice layout.

Course is in very good shape, great layout and challenging.

I have played other Pete Dye courses in the area and I just didn’t think this lived up to his name. There were bunkers that had tractor ruts but no ground under repair markings. Course looked tired not much upkeep

We had high expectations for this course and were disappointed. There is a shuttle that you have to call from the parking lot to pick you up to get to the Pro Shop. We were there called and waited...while we were waiting other golfers arrived with earlier tee times, they asked to go ahead of us and we obliged. The course itself is under construction all through 18, well actually there is really only 17 holes, 18 is closed. You can play 2 par 3's on 17 or one par 4. No mention of the construction or the hole closure when you booked. No beverage cart service. We were waiting for a long time and had people pushing us all day. There were no ball washers on the course or on the cart, garbage's were hiding as well. Very disappointing day.

Very nice layout. Some other reviews had an issue with the condition of the course but we found it in good condition. Very playable but not pristine. Didn’t get to play hole 18 because of bunker repairs but could play 2 balls on 17. Greens immaculate and almost too much sand in bunkers. Not really a snack shack after 9 but a lounge for members so had to use a credit card to pay $2 for some chips. Maybe bring a sandwich with you. Beer cart lady was great and made killer margaritas. Really enjoyed our day.

I have played this course before but this time was probably my last. 1st) They have to shuttle you and your clubs to the clubhouse which takes so much extra time (and might be worth it if the course was in great shape); 2nd) The staff member dropped my clubs off the cart landing on my club heads. It was frustrating and unnecessary. He just hit the cart beside us with the clubs flipping them off the cart pretty hard; and 3rd) they were redoing the bunkers and we couldn’t play hole 18. It was just very expensive for a poorly maintained course. There are so many great courses to choose from that we will not be playing this one again.

Conditions at this course have deteriorated over the years, they are clearly putting less money into maintenance and staff, range, etc.. Still a nice layout, solid greens, but ultimately, nothing on this site indicated the 18th hole (their signature hole) was closed for play due to construction. I would not have booked had I known that, given all the golf options around here - really unfortunate and the pro shop indicated they were trying to get this website to post that the 18th hole was closed.

Good value for the money, need extra time a checkin as staff j=has to come pick you up from the bag drop area. One hole was closed due to bunker repairs.

The course was in great shape. My only peeve is they had the 9th hold closed, they said they were working on the traps. I’m glad they’ve doing maintenance but when we got to the 9th, there wasn’t any equipment or workers on it. I believe we could have played it. Hmmm…

…and now that the Pandemic is over, put the ball washers back.
Thanks

Course did let us know of # 9 being closed. 17 they stupidly made into 2 par 3

Condition was questionable at places, bunkers not good - inconsistent! Fairways sparse in places
Pace play good- but could have been better, no ranger 4.5 hours
Saw drink cart once in 18 holes

My double and I were a couple minutes behind.
The moment we arrived, we were greeted with a smile & group accommodations to still enjoy although it was our fault we were late. The spacings of groups and pace of play was amazing. A big shout out to the starter & golf shop staff. At the end of the day, we had access to cart drivers to shuttle us and our clubs back to the car.

Honestly, a wonderful course to play. Would come again.
