Rating 71.4

Nestled at the base of the San Jacinto Mountains, Indian Canyons Golf Resort offers two championship courses with stunning views. The two golf courses, North and South, have completely different layouts but they are both sheltered from the wind thanks to the surrounding mountains. The South Course is the shorter of the two, making it the more player-friendly course. That is not to say it is not a challenge though. The rolling fairways are framed by contoured mounding and four expansive lakes come into play on six holes. The par 5s are particularly memorable. There are also well over 1,300 palm trees throughout the golf course, which includes hundreds of Washingtonia filifera palms. These trees are native to the Agua Caliente Tribe and an important part of their history.

Perfect conditions and nice course

Nicely designed course, back 9 holes are a bit more challenging than front ones with more water in play. Greens were firm and fast (despite rain an evening before), staff very friendly - they managed to paired me up before my tee time (upon my request). A note: as many courses are over-seeding at time of the year, conditions here were just fantastic.

Best. Round. Ever.

We live in Naples, Florida and were visiting Palm Springs for the first time. We'd seen desert golf on television and it was a bucket list dream come true to finally experience it. Indian Canyons is the ultimate desert golf experience. We loved everything about this course. EVERYTHING! Perfect conditions, breathtaking scenery, friendly staff. I will remember Indian Canyons Golf Resort and the round of golf we played there for the rest of my life. Don't bother trying to find a better course. Just play the South course every day.

Surprised

Course condition was excellent, my only nit-pik is, in my opinion, the tee boxes needed to be mowed.. Shade provided by the neighboring mountains was welcome for the first five holes. Greens were in fine condition. Bunkers had nice sand. Play was a little slow, but I was playing with two others and we were following a couple fours. I will play there again.

A great course where you don't have narrow fairways that lead to trouble. Fairways and greens in great shape. Able to complete round under 3 hours. Staff was friendly and helpful. Love this course

Will try to come back this year

Have played the north course before (very nice). I was very impressed with the South course. Great conditions any time of the year but especially end of the summer in Palm Springs. Challenging, but not crazy layout. Played at 11am and pace of play was great. Will do what I can to get back here this week.

A Great Place to Play

Got an early tee time on a hot day, Sunday, and had no one either pushing or slowing us down.

The course was in mid-season condition, the fairways lush, the traps cleaned, and the greens as good as you would expect on a top quality course.

I am looking forward to joining this course for its seasonal price benefits.

Amazing Views

Great experience playing this course and one of the most scenic courses I’ve played in the area. Great conditions for the summer with lush fairways and tee boxes, bunkers and greens all great. Challenging but very playable with water and strategic bunkers to humble you. Highly recommend this course and take the time to look up at the majestic views.
