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.

Beautiful course

My only complaint would be that they load the course up and you end up standing and waiting for two or three groups in front of you to play

Second time here, always a challenge.

This course is so much fun. For starters the wind was blowing 30+ mph when I left the house this morning, but it was dead calm once I got to the course. It is a resort course but not a pushover for sure. There were several approach shots that I missed by just a few feet, and a flop shot was required to get over the dips and swales into a tough pin placement. It seemed like every hole took a different approach and I really had to think about my club selection all day. The turf is in excellent shape and the bunkers were nice and fluffy.

This is my second time here and I plan to come back for sure.

Just another great day at Indian Canyons- south course

From the initial welcome and instructions from the starter to finishing with an 85 foot birdie putt I very much enjoyed my round. The fairways, bunkers (of which I saw many) and greens were in great shape. Adequate water available to drink and a finishing breakfast sandwich was delicious. A very nice ending to my visit to Palm Springs- see you next year.

Fun Day in the Canyon

First off, was skeptical about the course being playable being there were wind advisories on this day. However, as promised, being as tucked into the canyon as the course is, wind is not nearly as bad here as in other parts of the valley,. So if wind is a concern, don't worry. First time playing here, and won't be my last. Course was in great condition from tee to green. Greens were perfect speed. Not the toughest course you'll ever play, and fairways tend to be generous and greens not the toughest to read. However, a fair amount of bunkers can be found on most holes, and water also comes into play on a few holes as well. A couple holes were fun risk reward scenarios, and a couple other required some thought on club selection. Also like that most holes don't have houses around them and the scenery makes the course that much more appealing. All in all, a moderate test of golfing skill, but for sure a fun play and will be back.

Enjoyed the course

The golf course was in great shape, nice lay out and beautiful. The only smear was a male pro shop employee who had a bad day or just a bad customer relations attitude.
