Other than the poor customer service, this course is one of my all time favorites. Even for the end of summer, the greens and fairways were in excellent shape. Pace of play was fine, course played long and seemed to gobble up balls that rolled of the fairway, quite punitive in my opinion.

Very nice layout. More scenic than Stadium and Norman courses. Holes #9 and #18 are difficult, play them safe. Greens were a bit bumpy coming of several weeks of airation, but still provided good roll... Continue »

Very nice layout. More scenic than Stadium and Norman courses. Holes #9 and #18 are difficult, play them safe. Greens were a bit bumpy coming of several weeks of airation, but still provided good roll. Trust the yardage markers, regarless of the visual perspective... it was hot (114F) on Sunday 8/12

great golf package going on now....

Played there this last Saturday. Although it was about 110F, it was very enjoyable. I was surprised to see how well the course looked given the heat. The course was perfect and very fun to play. The Nick wasn't as hard as Stadium, but the layout still forced you to play smart golf. I think any skill level would have fun here. We stayed at the La Quinta resort with unlimited golf on the Nick and Satdium course for about $155. Well worth it if the heat doesn't bother you. Remember to stay hydrated!

Quite a deal at $85 (includes cart and unlimited free range balls)...this is during the "off-season" in La Quinta/Palm Springs. The course was emaculate! Very challenging if you can stand the 100 de... Continue »

Very challenging but fair course. Plateaued fairways make accurate tee shots a must. Played in the am on 5/21. Pro shop staff very professional and starter was pleasant and helpful. Favorite hole was the par 5 15th with island green. Need two good shots to have a chance to land the well bunkered green. Overall a great experience and nice course layout. Looking foward to playing Greg Norman and TPC course.

Played the Nick Tourney course Thur 11/10. Started at 12:30pm for $85 twilight rate and got all 18 in before dark - about 4.5 hours. Course was cart path only as it had only openned from overseeding a few weeks prior. Pace of play was great - no pressure from behind, no pressure on the group ahead - very enjoyable. Course is awesome - enjoyed it much more than the Stadium course. The rough was 4-6 inches long - a real ball-swallower and hosel-grabber that cost you a stroke or two every hole you were in it, but the fairways were lush and rolling and moderately wide. The course has lots of variety: vegetation, water, sand, uphill/downhill/sidehill lies, rough, short and long par 3's, 4's, and 5's...a very dynamic and interest-holding course - not mundane golf at all. Course is routed through housing, some close-up - hit it straight here, and you'll still hit every club in your bag here - a very good challenge, tough but fair, a thinking-man's course. There are large practice facilities at PGA West, a nice locker room with showers, a large pro shop with very expensive merchandise ($85 shirts, $28 caps, $20 bag tags for instance), but some great old photos in the resturant of Skins games with Trevino and Palmer and Nicklaus and Player from the 70's...be sure to bring a couple beers and cigars from home in your bag to avoid the $20/Macanudo and $5.50 each or $25 six-pack charge on Miller Lite. Definately come for the golf and not the goods - a must-play course.

Beautiful course that was in excellent condition. I found there to be several memorable holes and really injoyed playing here. I played on a very hot day and as you might expect this course can beat you down a bit as the difficulty and the temperature wear you down!

Played on 4/23/06 in the afternoon as a twosome. Breezed through the course in 2.5 hours playing well. Course was in great shape. Bunkers good and greens true. Its worth playing and entertaining. ... Continue »

Played on 4/23/06 in the afternoon as a twosome. Breezed through the course in 2.5 hours playing well. Course was in great shape. Bunkers good and greens true. Its worth playing and entertaining. No major challenges and no holes that you say WOW too, but its a good course.
