La Quinta
This “gem in the desert” embraces the outdoors and the arts. Spend the day romanticizing and wandering through Old Town, La Quinta’s main street with cobblestone sidewalks, whitewashed adobe walls, and bougainvillea galore. The quaint thoroughfare provides the perfect storybook-like setting for a chill afternoon of shopping and alfresco dining. Sip on a seasonal IPA at La Quinta Brewing Company(their outdoor patio is great for people-watching). Browse local artists’ wares, ranging from paintings to ceramics to jewelry, during Art on Main Street, held on select Saturdays throughout the year. Shop for fresh fare and flowers at the Old Town Farmers Market. Or rent a beach cruiser through Old Town Peddler to explore more of the surrounding cottage-filled neighborhoods that make up La Quinta Cove, where hikers enjoy easy access to trails that traverse beautiful desert mountains and canyons.
Golf in La Quinta
Golf remains one of the biggest draws for the outdoor-minded, with several private and public clubs, including the world-famous PGA West, offering multiple links styles and amenities right at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains. Book a tee time on one of these storied courses or make a special trip during The American Express (formerly the Desert Classic/CareerBuilder Challenge), when La Quinta plays host to some of the sport’s top players
