The Haters are Misguided

If you're looking for a new-look, high-end golf course ; this is not it.

However, if you appreciate a course with tons of history and character in beautiful surroundings for a decent price, Indian Canyons North is it.

This course is located in stunning Murray Canyon, wending it's way through a cool neighborhood of stylish mid-century modern homes. The pro-shop and clubhouse display a number of photos from the course's Palm Springs glory days, featuring Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr,, Dino and other celeb golfers from that era.

I played in a 3-some this morning with a 7:00 tee-time. We got around in under 3 1/2 hours with no waiting. The fairways are in great shape. The rough was a little sparse, but not punitive. The greenside bunkers were raked with plenty of sand. Greens were a bit bumpy, though rolled true. Cart paths have not been maintained well over the years, but not a big deal imo.

The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Yes, this course's best days are behind it. But, it's a classic layout which is still very enjoyable to play.

Restore the course to it Glory day

It A nice track, but need some work done. Return the course back to when you had the Bob Hope Classic. Refurbish the fairways sand trap on all the fairway, would make it very challenging which is good. I am playing in the US AM tour on the 2/27/22

Very disappointing

First time playing this course and for the money it was very disappointing. Cart paths non existent, , brown areas everywhere, lots of muddy areas. Difference between the North and South course is night and day. South course is beautiful. Don’t waste your money on the North. There are lots of much nicer courses in Palm Springs area that are less money and in much better condition.

Disappointed .

The course conditions were appalling, I wouldn't recommend playing the north course. On a positive note we really enjoyed the south course and it hard to believe that the north course is part of the same ownership .

Over priced for the conditions, but the course staff are very friendly.

Indian Canyon Review

The course was not in very good condition. Fairway traps had no sand and some were being overgrown by grass. Club house said to treat the fairway bunkers as ground under repair. Green side bunkers needed more sand. Cart paths (what there were) were in poor condition.

Needs maintenance

Greens and green side bunkers generally in good shape but sand needs update. No apparent maintenance of any of the many fairway bunkers which they say to play as ground under repair. Golfer friendly layout for high handicappers and a value for a non special round.

Decent course for the money

We teed off at 1:40 in the afternoon and finished around 6:00. It was almost to dark to finish the 18th hole. I would recommend teeing off earlier if you want to complete 18 holes in daylight.

north course and south course don't even compare. The south is beautiful and in great shape. Fun layout. North course is in lousy condition. Fairways are fine. Rough is clumpy and greens are bumpy. Fairway bunkers/waste areas are unplayable. Why not put some sand in those fairway bunkers and make it a golf course. Layout on the north is also boring.

Wow we read the reviews after booking the tee time and should not have booked. The course is in very rough condition. The price was way too much.

The layout is actually quite good but hard to overlook very poor green conditions. Rough was non existenc and wet, Cart paths were very run down.

From what I have seen the south course is in much better shape.

Unfortunate

Layout is not to bad. Greens were very bumpy, carts paths non-existence, fairways were fair to good.

Could be a nice course if some upgrades and maintenance were performed.

Friendly staff in the pro shop and bar.

Great course

Played both North and South courses. Well maintained greens and fairways.

Gave them only two stars for amenities as they have terrible cell service at club and no wi-fi so could not make calls or access internet to call uber to take back to hotel.

Had to walk long distance to get good signal in order to get ride. I would believe this is a common occurrence as the other party i was with was having the same issue.

Put some guest wi-fi up to help your players.

Other than that good place

This course needs work!

Quite a disappointment as this course needs lots of work. The staff were friendly but we paid $100 to play this course that is severely in need of maintenance. The fairway bunkers were terrible & the green side bunkers were moderately better, at least they had sand but the edges hadn’t been trimmed in months. The staff were very friendly & told us there were problems with the over-seeding but they still took $100 for US from us. I would not replay this course based on the value provided.
