About La Quinta
The City of La Quinta is a community nestled at the base of the majestic Santa Rosa Mountains, just 30 minutes from Palm Springs, in southern California's Coachella Valley. With its small-town friendliness, La Quinta is a peaceful and relaxing community. However, it is also a year-round, multi-recreational and destination resort community. Known as the "Gem of the Desert," La Quinta enjoys low humidity combined with an abundance of sunshine year-round
La Quinta enjoys a healthy tourism industry, especially during the cooler winter months, as it's snow-loving visitors begin to arrive. However, the most prominent reason for La Quinta's out-of-town visitors is golf! More than twenty golf courses grace La Quinta's geography, including the world-famous PGA West, which has hosted prestigious tournaments such as The Skins Game, The Bob Hope Chrysler Classic, The Grand Slam of Golf, The Legends of Golf, as well as the PGA Tour Qualifying School. La Quinta also has a healthy number of retail shopping centers, which covers everything from discount stores like Target, to higher-end retailers like SteinMart. Whatever your need, it is not likely to be far from you. La Quinta also hosts a wide variety in the area of restaurants and dining. If you need a drive-thru on your way to the park, you won't have to look far, and if you want to enjoy fine dining after a day on the course, just visit LG's Prime Steakhouse.
