La Quinta Country Club :  The Early YearsIn 1958, the land and area known as La Quinta Country Club was a barren, windswept, treeless desert.  But the dreamers who bought the small boutique La Quinta Hotel had plans for lush fairways, sparkling lakes, and a playground for the stars...on a Championship golf course.  1,000 acres turned into just that.  One of the founders, Leonard Ettelson, a Chicago attorney, said that the hotel was small and unprofitable, and they didn't expect to make money on it.  "But we do expect to make money off the real estate."Located in one of the most picturesque settings, surrounded by the dramatic Santa Rosa Mountains, these visionaries saw what others had not.  A dream and opportunity to create a beautiful place to live and play.  A residential subdivision ... 10/02/2025
