IS THERE A CLASSIER GOLF COMMUNITY THAN TRADITION?
La Quinta, California is known for having some of the world’s most beautiful and well respected golf communities in existence. The Tradition Golf Club easily comes to mind at the top of the list, with its classically understated and elegant entrance, strategically located where Washington St. dead ends into Avenue 52 – and when you’re at the stoplight on Washington, you’re looking right at it.
The strikingly large and colorful seasonal flowerbeds at the entrance to Tradition in La Quinta, California hug the gentle berms like blankets – and every season is a surprise to see what color and type of flowers are planted in the manicured beds. The canopied trees and classically styled gate house with bougainvillea arbors set the tone for a Golf Club that’s nothing less than special. Tradition’s exclusive membership is limited to 250 members… by invitation only. So as a member at Tradition, you are entitled to the ultimate in service, dining and amenities.
EARLY HISTORY HARKENS BACK TO HOLLYWOOD
Did you know that Tradition sits on a piece of real estate that was once a ranch that served as a respite from Hollywood for such famous movie stars as Clark Gable, Kathryn Hepburn, Greta Garbo, and many others? Palm Springs has not been the only desert community to attract the Stars. Even Presidents were drawn to the serenity and privacy offered by this special landscape nestled up against the rugged beauty of the Santa Rosa Mountains – Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy both enjoyed extended stays here. Add to that list golf great Arnold Palmer… who’s also been a part of the legacy of the land now known as Tradition. He designed the impeccable 18-hole
championship golf course and a 9-hole par 3 course there. And just across the street within walking distance from Tradition’s entrance is Arnold Palmer’s Restaurant where you can fine dine, drink wine and enjoy live music in an atmosphere not unlike the Tradition Club itself.
