Indian Wells Golf Resort - Celebrity Course
Rating Snapshot
About
Indian Well Golf Resort boasts two championship courses that have been ranked in the top 20 golf courses in California. The Celebrity Course was first to open in 2006 and it was joined a year later by the Players Course. The Celebrity Course offers stunning mountain views from start to finish. It has been the two-time host to the PGA Tour's Skins Game. Water is a prominent feature of the scenic landscape with streams, brooks, and split-level lakes connected by cascading waterfalls. The lush, undulating fairways contrast beautifully with the colorful flowers and sparkling blue waters. Both the greens and fairways are kept in immaculate condition. In addition to the golf course, Indian Wells also offers a practice area with a putting and chipping green and practice bunkers.

Hole #12 I believe. Photo submitted by Trailerteri on 04/03/2013
Amazing course
Everything about this place was amazing. Friendly staff, insanely well kept course, great pace of play and attention by the marshals.
Good Summer Conditions
This course is in good condition for the summer. The greens were a little slower as they can not be cut low in the extreme heat. The pace was a little slow however the course ambassador's were around quite often and there is ice and water stations every 3 holes.
We persuaded them to give us towels which are necessary for cooling down, a great benefit.
Only complaint i had was the beer cart was promoting a local beer which i tried but could not finish it and had to pour it out.
Great course
This course was a challenge for my first time playing, but I will definitely come back. Beautiful course
A beautiful course
Amazing layout and fairways. Greens were difficult due to recent heats so very bumpy with dry patches and hard to play. Pace was moderate but the Marshall was on the slow groups. I will definitely be back.
Didn't live up to expectations
Taking into account I played on the hottest day on record and in the afternoon, the course was in ok condition. Heard this was a course not to miss playing while in Palm Springs, I was disappointed. No water anywhere, no cart service, but staff was friendly. Would like to play in when it is better condition because back nine had a fun layout
Golfing Experience
My son and I throughly enjoyed our golf round this morning at Indian Hills. The course was in optimal condition. Just absolutely beautiful layout and features. We will include this course on our regular golfing rotation of courses. We look forward to playing it again.
Fun layout
Course was a fun layout greens were not that great
Beautiful layout
Challenging course th some narrow fairways and very tricky greens with plenty of undulation. More blind shots than I would like but if you can manage your game you can make do. A fun round in a picturesque setting.
Celebrity review
This course is narrow and fun. Tee boxes are immaculate greens are a consistent speed
Great course
Great course in great condition. Pace of play was a little slow since they had a drivable par 4 on back. I took some pictures of the scenic views. Greens were fast but fair. They had drink stations every 3 holes for ice and water. The fairways can be a little tight at times.
Enjoyable Golf
Enjoyed the course and surroundings.....great course condiditons.....only wish the Pro shop stayed open past 2:30 as I would have liked to shop in there......never have time before the round to shop
