Indian Wells Golf Resort - Players Course
Rating Snapshot
About
The Players Course is one of two championship courses at Indian Wells Golf Resort, both of which are ranked in the top 20 golf courses in California. Opened in 2007, the course is still young but the landscape's existing trees were carefully incorporated into the layout to give it a more mature feel. The terrain has many assets to offer a round of golf, including plenty of water features and elevation changes. The challenging layout is complete with meticulously sculpted bunkers. It is a scenic course too with lush, well manicured fairways accented by colorful flowers and meandering streams. The design also takes advantage of the stunning views of the surrounding Santa Rosa, San Jacinto, and San Bernardino mountains ranges. To the south, Eisenhower Mountain serves as a breathtaking backdrop.

A real gem in the Desert !
We played as a 2-some on the Player's Course in the morning, starting about 9:00. It became obvious we would want a shot at their $25 replay rate in the afternoon, as the quality of the Player's Course unfolded. But sundown (4:45 PM) was the challenge. We finished before 12:30, we hustled onto the 1st tee of the Celebrity Course, we hit the ball by about 12:35. I was expecting the Celebrity Course to be not nearly as good or challenging as the Player's Course. Wrong...that course was nearly the equal to the Player's. What a great 36 holes ! We finished by 4:30 with still plenty of light. Both courses were impeccably maintained ! Ther staff was great ! The greens were great ! The whole facility was exceptional ! We'll come back in a New York minute ! Thanks !
Fair and fun golf course
Indian Wells complex is very nice and the staff are super pleasant and helpful. Course was in great condition although a bit soggy in spots (we played cart path only) and the greens were probably a bit slower than later in the season. Neither of those issues bothered me at all. Very nice views and staff provided good course ambiance. Played in late November and you must tee off before noon to be confident of finishing 18 in reasonable light.
Excellent course. Tough course on a windy day.
Excellent course. I enjoyed my round. As a 15 handicap, I should not have played the blue tees but it was not my call.
Nice to play a non-desert course in the desert. Magnificant views, extremely freindly staff, margaritas on-tap on the beverage cart!
Outstanding venue and value. Only negative was slow play due to large outing out ahead of us. Can't wait to play there again. fantastic clubhouse/bar.
Immaculate & uplifting!
This is a great course! We loved it! Great service!
Great views
Not cheap, but definitely a place you'll remember. Super friendly staff, great views, difficult but fair course. The only thing I didn't like was the mats on the driving range, but a small complaint about a course you'll love.
Beautiful course.
Great views with incredible scenery. The course just went thru its annual reseeding and in my opinion they shouldn't let you play the course when you have to play with your cart on the cart path only. Invariably I ended up on the opposite side of the fairway and it took a lot of my energy to play in the afternoon in 90-100 degree days and walk the course mostly. Just sayin.....
