Good value, good conditions fantastic staff!!!

The course is an "old" throwback design with a very basic layout. After playing the amazing South Course a couple years ago, I'd set my expectations too high. So, from that standpoint, I was a bit disappointed. However, I do think it's good, well maintained course and worth the price. Tee boxes, fairways and greens were all in good condition at about a 6 on a 10 scale.

No Players Assistant after 1:00!

The staff on & off the course were very good. The problem that ruined are game was extremely slow play. Probably a couple of groups of partiers in front that really slowed us down. Waited on every hole except the 1st two. The cart tech/ club cleaner asked us to play the front 9 twice if we wanted to play faster. Good idea, but ruins our 18 hole score. Very frustrating!

Great Course!!

This is a must play!! Never even knew about it till recently and it was perfect!! The employees welcome you and make you feel special. The conditions are excellent from the tee box to the greens!! The North Course plays long so don't let your ego get the best of you as the white tees are at 6500 yards and the par 3's are tough but doable if you play smart. I'm looking forward to returning and playing the South Course because that looked amazing!!! Good job Indian Canyons!!!

Awesome Course!!

This course was a last minute booking and I had never seen it before on GN so I went with it and I am sure glad that I did!! It was amazing from the tee boxes to the greens. The employees were all very welcoming and nice. I received tons of tips from the starter and cart guy who picked me up at my car when i first arrived. I got to play with a local named Joe who was super cool and knowledgeable of the course and layout. This course will not disappoint!! It plays long even from the white tees at 6500 but if you can hit it straight you will be rewarded. I want to play the South course next at the recommendation of my new buddy Joe!! Keep up the good work Indian Canyons!! I'll be back!!

Another PSP Gem

My preference is the South Course, played north course today. Compared to the last time we played the north(probably 5 years), was a very positive experience. Clearly, the Tribe has been spending money.

Ok,for golf experts, probably not as hard as other tracks but was in excellent condition and interesting to view the surrounding neighborhood..

wide open fairways, good turf. Excellent value.

Better Than Some of the Reviews

Played this course early morning on a perfect day. Three of us went around in 2:45, making this my fastest round ever. Tees and Greens were perfect, and despite previous reviews, the traps (in which I visited a few) were in great shape but for one with a few blades of grass.

The staff is the best I've encountered in almost 50 years. I'll be back next year for more.

Slowest round in years

We typically like driving out to the desert to play golf in the summer because we can usually motor through the round in about 3 hours. Unfortunately, it took us almost 5 hours in 112 degree heat! Having 4 groups on one hole seem to be the norm. I realize they probably are short staffed in the summer and don’t have a Marshall, but 5 hours on a course like Indian Canyon in the middle of summer is unacceptable.

It really is too bad because the course was in good shape, fun layout, and friendly staff.

Great Time Golfing

Played this course for the 2nd time in 3 years. Great hospitality! Course was in great shape. Was somewhat difficult for a 79 year old. Needed 3 strokes to reach most greens. Greens were excellent. Ball rolled very true. Fairways were in excellent shape. It was a lot of fun hitting Woods, Hybrids and Irons off of grass for a change.

Yikes

Wasn’t sure if I was on a golf course or someone’s backyard that has been out of town for 10 months. I mean sure it’s the end of the “season” but for Christ sake. Tee boxes and greens were decent but that it’s. Never seen grass growing inside bunkers before

Indian Canyons

When you step up to the first tee and see the homes lining the left side of the hole, you can’t help but think about the celebrities being here and playing in the 60’s and 70’s. The course plays fast but be aware the the rough can be punitive.

The course is doing a lot of maintenance but it does not come into play. The sand traps though need work; (read sand) as they are too punishing to your score hitting off packed/compressed dirt or felt.

I will play the course again and my guest wants to also play it too.
