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
Great Course to play.
The course was in great shape. The layout was challenging yet a lot of fun to play. Greens were fast but true. Everybody in the Pro Shop was very helpful and friendly.
The tee marker did not match the score card. In some cases 30-40 yards difference
Demanding but Not A Killer
Very professional from check in to end of play. Will definitely play again upon return to area. Paired with 2 other singles and they both knew the course layout. Course was well maintained and staff were courteous at level.
Augusta of the West
I loved this lace. It was challenging! First time I broke 100 on a course I’ve never played before. The place reminds me of Augusta National with all the flowers, water and bridges. The difference is you have mountains in the background.
Awesome place!
This course feels like a comfortable old country club that blends the spectacular flowers of Augusta with the palm trees and the mountains…oh there’s a challenging 18 holes to play as well!
About as good as it gets. Play here, you won’t regret it
From the staff to the course, it’s all 5 stars. Course condition is perfect. Greens run true and fastish. Fairways are 5 out of 5. Some bunkers could use some sand. But I suspect that could be from the recent torrential rainstorm, they saw before Christmas. If you can afford it, this place is well worth the money to play
Excellent experience
Beautiful course. Very challenging but the course is in excellent condition. The amenities are wonderful and the staff was delightful. Look forward to returning.
Fantastic
What a Fantastic place to play,. From the time you arrive to the time you leave is nothing but top notch
Beautiful Course-Friendly staff
From the moment you arrive until you leave the staff make you feel very welcome. The course is visually stunning. One of the most attractive to the eye I’ve played. It’s a good test and I would play again if the opportunity comes up
Post seeding experience
Course is in the best shape of 9 different courses we played this week.
Excellent gateways & green putted great!
Beautiful Course - staff is amazing except pro shop manager today
Beautiful course - would love to come back but will not because of my experience with pro shop desk employee. He was rude and inconsiderate. You would think +200$ round of golf in off season 100 degree temps they would appreciate your support. Not so today .
An oasis in the desert
This golf facility never disappoints. And the city
Continues to support it with annual upgrades.
The check in to tee off is done right and they didn’t cut staff due to the summer months… the course was immaculate….. every inch of was groomed and the blow the grass off the fairways and rough after cutting … not many courses have such attention to detail… course marshall was polite and engaged…. Constantly on the course …. We played in 3:30 on a tight course ….. don’t miss it…. Could be the best in the public/semi private space
