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

Pro shop rep couldn't have been nicer. Perfect man to place in customer service position! Starter, on the other hand, was a polar opposite and should not be dealing with the public. I drove up to the 1st tee box early to see if I could possibly go out before my time. No starter was present but another single was standing on the tee and waiting to tee off behind a foursome ahead. He politely asked if I would like to join him and I did. As we're teeing off, the official starter shows up and more than rudely scolds me, saying I can't just go when I please. The young single I joined and I both tell the starter that it was mutually agreed that we'd make a better group than go off as two singles and since no starter was present when the group ahead had cleared the hole we made the command decision to play on. The starter was very demeaning and rude and left an extremely bad impression on what otherwise was an enjoyable afternoon. I'd like to recommend my friends play at the Westin but hesitate to do so given the impolite attitude of your Sunday afternoon starter. He certainly could use a lesson from your pro shop attendant!

Course - excellent except for bunkers...inconsistent sand conditions.
Pace - tournament ahead of us and slow until they cleared the course. Otherwise, quite open and fast pace of play.

When I checked in at the pro shop, I was labeled as a “pre-paid” customer and treated as a second class citizen. The remainder of the staff seemed more interested in their “full price” players or members. While the course layout was interesting and the corse conditions good, the carts lacked any club/ball washers nor did they provide any towels to clean the balls or clubs.

This is a fantastic course. Enough of a Pete Dyer challenge to keep you on your toes. Great driving range and the staff is exceptional. You will enjoy your round.

Had a great morning playing the course. Met some of the members who were very welcoming.
Coming back this weekend!

We started as a twosome and without our knowledge, we were asked to be paired with another twosome after the third hole. Although a foursome now, we waited on every hole due to extremely slow play as 2 foursome decided to join together as an 8-some. With no consideration to the groups behind them our round took 45 minutes longer then it should have. No course marshalls were present for the entire round and the proshop was closed on the turn to the back 9 holes so we were stuck with this very dissappointing situation. Very poor course management.

Course conditions were outstanding. Because this I'd a Pete Dye course, it is very difficult. My advice it to play up a tee box for maximum enjoyment.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Course is a decent layout but I found the greens and fairway to be only average for this time of the year.

Consistently enjoyable course. Only drawback is it would be nice to have a convenient place for après golf drinks and telling of lies.

We ejoyed the experience and would reccomend it to a friend.

First hole was ok but from there it was great day.

Windy but mamageable.
greens were excellent.

What a great course, really had a great time, holes were challenging but very fair and very well laid out. Just had an awesome time from the shuttle to the driving range. They even laughed at when I told them what I had for Breakfast.

Challenging course with accuracy on your approach required to score well. Lots of sand around the greens but bunkers well maintained and manicured.
Pace was excellent and staff friendly and helpful. Only downside is trying to find the Snack Shack at the turn.
