Inside The Madison Club: Why La Quinta’s most private address stays private
Coming soon
La Quinta, California
Golf homes, private clubs, and the desert lifestyle of La Quinta.
The definitive guide to La Quinta's seven private golf communities — PGA West, The Madison Club, The Hideaway, Andalusia, The Tradition, The Quarry, and La Quinta Country Club — the architects behind their fairways, and what it actually feels like to live here.
From the Journal
A reference for serious buyers of the La Quinta golf life.
From the Pete Dye Stadium Course at PGA West to the Fazio routings of The Madison Club and The Quarry, La Quinta holds one of the deepest concentrations of championship private golf on the West Coast. We document each community — its architect, its character, the lifestyle around it — so you can decide where you belong before you ever step onto a property.
This publication does not sell homes or list inventory. It works in partnership with the realtors who know the market best.
