About

Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6560 yards
Slope 124
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.

Must play

This is a must play for all golf enthusiasts. Went out at 6:40 am and was finished at 10:20 am . The course was in great shape even though some holes were just punched. Great value for this awesome layout. If you like desert golf then put this on this list and play it .

Back Again

Second round at IC South. My wife joined me along with the stalwart Cliff from TN and the affable Ben from outside LA. A good time was had by all. The Rust tees were great for my novice wife at 4800 yds as many holes are actually reachable in regulation with a 100-140 yard tee shot and/or a 80-120 yard second shot. Kudos to Cliff for getting up and down on 18 for his first round in the 70’s. Many more to come for sure. After many misadventures and missed putts I closed with four (that’s correct) birdies for a nice 78. I have had four in a round before but never more than two in a row.

We will make course a regular stop in our future visits to the region. Fun course with great views of the surrounding hills.

Neat Track

My wife, who is a novice player, joined me for an early morning round today. She played the rust tees which with their reduced yardage made for a very fun and fair experience. This is an interesting course and the conditions were quite good considering how hot it has been lately. We liked it enough that we booked another round for later this week. Everybody was especially friendly and helpful. Looking forward to coming back. Good stuff!

Excellent course in Palm Springs!

I booked this course because it was close to where I am staying in Palm Springs and I’m so happy I did!

We played at 6:30 and made it around in 4:10. The course is in great shape considering it is 110 degrees. I will definitely be back in the fall.

Up to par

As usual the course was in great shape. A few bunkers were being renovated and were GUR but didnt affect the game much. A bit surprising, too, because they JUST finished upgrading the bunkers very recently. We went out early at 7:41 to beat the heat and it wasn't that bad. Plenty of groups ahead of us but the pace was about 4:15. Its rated #2 in the Coachella Valley behind Desert Willow Firecliff for a reason. Because it's a great course! We picked a great day/time to take advantage. Only $42 is a steal when the temps barely crept past 90. One of my faves in the desert, I'll be back.

Great Conditions.

Played with a threesome of novice golfers as the first group off on a Sunday morning. Even though they were not good players, they were not slow and we finished in 3 hours.

Course in beautiful shape; fairways green and plush; ball sits up nicely. No dead or brown areas. Greens in great shape also, although they rolled a little slow. Starter was very friendly and got us out a little early. Overall conditions were excellent. Course very playable, but challenging as well with water on several holes coming into play. Definitely worth playing.
