Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta

The Trilogy Golf Club at La Quinta is a renovated public course in the Coachella Valley offering a true championship-level experience. One of fewer than 100 former PGA Tour venues open to the public, it previously hosted the Skins Game and underwent a multi-million-dollar restoration with regrassed greens, rebuilt bunkers, and modernized infrastructure.

Designed by Gary Panks with renovation support from Gary Broly, the course emphasizes fairness, accessibility, and enjoyment. Open fairways, manageable rough, limited penal hazards, and varied elevations make the layout challenging yet playable for all skill levels. Water hazards are used strategically, mainly on the back nine, and the design follows a “what you see is what you get” philosophy.

Seven tee options accommodate everyone, from the 7,115-yard Skins Tees to the 4,310-yard Trilogy Tees. The signature hole is the par-3 17th, known as “Tiger’s Waterloo,” requiring a full carry over water.

The renovation included regrassed greens and rebuilt bunkers. Public tee times can be reserved up to 30 days ahead; Trilogy at La Quinta residents can reserve up to 32 days ahead and receive 20% off the general public rate. Confirm current fees, maintenance closures, cart and walking rules before booking. Kitchen Ten Eleven and Café Solaz are open to the public; check their current hours before visiting.
