Indian Wells Golf Resort - Players Course

Played at 7:50am. Waited on every shot from our approach on the first hole to the approach on 18. Called pro shop twice and they said they’d send someone….no Marshall ever sent. Easy fix as there was a 4some 3 groups in front with easily 5-6 hole gap in front of them. Ruined the experience for everyone around us.

Rode the Orange Tees (6538/71.6/130) with Wendy, Lauren and Marvin in slightly less than 5H mid morning in the GK Plays. Close to 110, clear and fairly calm. Not humid like it has been, so it was more managemable than it sounds with plenty of liquids. Thanks to Johnny for setting this up, Linksoule and Golf Moose as sponsoring many nice items and IW for having us out!

Really like this John Fought design that features 7 sets of well spaced tees. Par 72 (37-35). The course is a good mixture of flat and rolling hills. Challenging layout featuring many holes with fairways that are either narrow in the landing area or require turning the ball to get in prime positions.

Tees were lush and nicely maintained with few divots.

Fairways were lush and very nice to play from.

Rough close to greens, just off fairways and around tees is mowed down, not overly penal and lush. Bermuda rough farther off fairways has good coverage but is not what I would call lush.

Sand traps were well maintained with fine sand.

Bermuda greens were smooth and putted medium fast speed. Firm with few ball marks. Large challenging green complexes, the greens feature many subtle undulations with few straight putts.

The course conditions were excellent overall. I appreciate this layout more with each round played here. It would be challenging to walk since there are numerous tees 100+ yards from the last green. Customer service is always excellent here. And that goes for every single person encountered, they could run a climic on how to provide excellent customer service @ IW. Plenty of ice/water stations on the course. Nice GPS on the carts. Cart person came around numerous times. Complementary range balls on an all grass range is a plus. Highly recommended.

What a great golf course! Worth the one hour drive! All staff members super kind and good attitudes!

I’ll be back!

Had a great time. Beautiful course. Friendly staff.

My brother in law and I (both single digit handicaps) played here for a first time a few months back. IW Resort is one of my new favorite spots in the Coachella Valley! Great staff, challenging golf course and close to everything in the area.

Great course and very well maintained for the time of the year…

Tough course. Bunkers protecting every green and a lot of pitched fairways make this a very challenging course. You really need to think about every shot.

What a great course. Very challenging but beautiful. The course was pristine despite the high heat. I am from Phoenix which has a similar climate but I have never seen a course in Phoenix that lush in June. Staff was very friendly and helpful, especially the starter. I'll be back, next time in the winter though.

Love this course. It was in great shape and early morning pace of play was perfect.

Indian Wells Resort players course is of the best courses in the desert. Tee boxes and fairways were lush with only minor patches of no grass. Greens had great pace. Ii highly recommend this course and the Celebrity course, which is the most picturesque course in the desert.

Excellent conditions tee to green. Friendly staff.

Great Course! Fun, challenging and in wonderful condition
