The Golfers Ultimate Weekend in Palm Springs
Description:
Palm Springs is known as a desert oasis, and my goodnes do they know how to grow some beautiful greens. Both the La Quinta and PGA West Courses reside here along with some of golf's biggest names. Along the way enjoy some great dining experiences at Kaiser Grill or Blend both of which offer great selections of fresh grilled steaks and appetizers. Be sure to play some golf along the way too.

Day 1 - Palm Springs
What better hotel to stay at than the one that offers the top golf courses in Phoenix, and is situated next to the others. The La Quinta Resort and Club has had guests such as Oprah and the Bush family, but it is their legendary golf courses that are of interest, and there are both courses on site were designed by Pete Dye. When hunger does strike, head over to Arnold Palmer's Restaurant and enjoy a little bit of the culture that Arnold loved so much. Afterwards, work on your short game at their 9 hole putting green. The Pavilion Theatre does a fantastic job of showcasing the diverse arts of the culture of Palm Springs, and if dancing is what you fancy then you are in luck. The Kaiser Grill will be sure to impress with its great steaks and other menu items while you enjoy the beautiful weather on their patios. They have a great bar atmosphere, (if that's what you are looking for at night), but do not forget that the La Quinta Resort has amazing grounds that are well lit at night making it perfect for a night stroll.
