About

Holes 18
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.

A Gem

My experience at Indian Canyon exceeded expectations. I enjoy playing on courses that are not super tidy and neat, comparable to my game. Indian Canyon Golf course was seriously one of the finest courses I have ever played on. The entire staff was stellar. The fairways were like carpets, so manicured and clean. The roughs were completely managable and The sand traps have been reconstructed. The sand is fresh. . It was paradise. I am not one to write reviews but I have to give credit where credit is due. Bravo. I will return to this place with vigor and regularity.

In conclusion, this hack job of a golfer shot a 90!

Best greens in the desert!

I love this course. I shot an 88. The course is very forgiving. It was very green. Not a spot of brown. Best course I’ve played thus far in the Palm Springs!! I will be back !!

Playing with the Wife this is the Place....

This is one of the best courses in Southern California for you to take your wife or girl friend to play. 5 par 3's with 4 of them short and very women/kid friendly. My wife loves this course, and for me (14 Handicap) it is the place to beat your handicap. Very well maintained and pace of play is usually good. This is a Resort Player friendly layout that is as good a course as the middle to high handicapper could ever want.....only down side would be for the low handicapper he/she may have to be happy with a sup-par round....

Great Day

Played for the first on golf outing. Course was in great shape and had a chance to use all of the clubs. First nine went by fast but second nine slowed down but was acceptable. I would go back and play again.
