PGA West (Pete Dye Dunes Course) Tee Times

This is a great place to go if you are looking for a challenge. The course also offers amazing views and the greens are in excellent shape. The staff was helpful and was paced well. Very well worth it for the price and would recommend golfing here. I saw the beverage cart multiple times and had a great selection of food and drinks.

Spectacular views, course in great condition, and the clubhouse staff was awesome. We went with a group of 6, 3 and 3 on each tee time and were ahead of pace the entire round. We decided to join up on 18 and all tee off together to enjoy the final hole. We were immediately met with scrutiny and hostility as the course marshal sped up to us yelling about never allowing more than 4. I understand if we were holding things up but again we were 13 minutes ahead of pace. He blamed it on his boss and that members were complaining, the members need to get a stick out of their you know what. Tough way to get people to come back on vacation if they are met with this kind of behavior for simply wanting to enjoy the beautiful views with their friends and family. This review would have been 5 stars but I’ve never seen someone so destined to ruin a good time like that marshal. Would come back for the views but 100% won’t thanks to treatment on the course.

Course Review: 8.4/10 I like to evaluate golf courses on a 10-point scale, and this course earned a solid 8.4. Here’s the breakdown: 1. Customer Service (2/10) You (the golf course) have 3-7 minutes to make or break the experience for any golfer. Unfortunately, this aspect fell short. The staff member at the desk spent 3-5 minutes on the phone with a customer discussing tee times and rules, while five players, including myself, waited and overheard the entire conversation. After hanging up, she was noticeably rude to the next three paying customers and to us as well. I gave her the benefit of the doubt due to the stressful conversation, but the situation could have been handled much better. Suggestions: take phone calls in a back room or return calls during less busy hours. 2. Starter (5/10) The transition from the clubhouse to the starter was underwhelming. The starter lacked enthusiasm and didn’t provide much information about the course or general guidelines. While everyone has bad days, a more inviting approach could significantly enhance the player experience. 3. The Golf Course (10/10) This is where the course shined. Playing from the tips, the layout and conditions were truly impressive. Greens, fairways, and tee boxes were immaculate—easily a 10/10. The pace of play was a bit slow for a 4-ball group, and finishing in the light/dark after a 1:30 PM tee time was less than ideal. However, the overall quality of the course made up for it. Final Thoughts: This course has great potential to earn a higher score. The playing experience is fantastic, but staff interactions are crucial as they set the tone for the entire round. Pro tip: Your course experience begins with the first and second customer contact points. Small adjustments in service could elevate this course to the next level. For context, I’ve reviewed 500+ courses in the last four years, and I can confidently say you have the foundation for greatness—just polish the details!

Good course in very good condition. Pace of play could be better, but I did play on a weekday of Thanksgiving week. Also, staffs were not rude but looked like they wanted to leave work badly; could be better. Staffs are usually a lot more enthusiastic abt their work at an upscale course like this. Nevertheless, beautiful course, and I really enjoyed my time here.

Wow! Really hard course to play. Amazing fairways and greens. Beautifully maintained. I’ve played other Pete Dye courses and his design will mess you up in a good way, expertly challenging. And the viewpoint is amazing with angulations you can only imagine.
