Indian Palms Golf & Country Club - Indian/Mountain
About
This course dates back to the 1940s and carries a powerful history. Dwight Eisenhower and John Kennedy played many a round at Indian Palms, back when it was called Cochran Ranch. Eisenhower loved the place so much, he wrote his memoirs at the ranch.
The Indian nine is the longest, with the most straight-forward holes.
The Mountain nine is probably the toughest of the three, with plenty of hills out on the course and plenty of slope on the greens. The Mountain nine also boasts a rare par-4 island green

Course review
For $37 I guess you don’t expect much and I was suprised. Just a poorly kept unattractive course. Better than a driving range for practice I guess.
Yikes
We read all of the reviews coming in to avoid this course due to poor conditions. Unfortunately due to a late start in planning, this was the only place we could find tee times on a Saturday AM so we decided to give it a shot. 2.5 hours and 9 holes later, we walked back to our car with a consensus review of "big mistake". Conditions of greens and fairways were average (generous) to poor. Layout was OK albeit with mostly tight fairways surrounded by houses on both sides. But the biggest issue was pace of play. We got off to a bad start as the starter forgot about us after telling us to wait in our carts, and sent two other groups to the tee that had times after us. Unfortunately it got worse from there because for 7 of the 9 holes, the group in front of us had yet to tee off when we pulled up to the tee. After 2.5 hours to play 9 holes at an excruciating pace, we decided to end the suffering and call it a day. The only upside I can offer is the price, as the $50 green fee on a Saturday morning is well below any other course in the valley, but as a wise man once said, "you get what you pay for" and there is a definite reason this course is so cheap. As we drove back to our car to unload our bags, we saw at least four other groups sitting in their carts waiting to be released into the pit of despair. In summary, I can say this course, despite the price, is only suitable for those with the patience of a Mother Teresa and the (golf) appetite of Joey Chestnut.
Unfortunate timing
Course in terrible shape worse we’ve ever seen. We played day before course was going to be over seeded so no effort had been put into course at all. Understand but unfortunate timing for us.
Ok when everything else was closed
Although I was checked in before my tee time, the starter had given my spot away so I had to wait. The group two groups in front of us was 2 holes behind, but absolutely no marshalling staff to move them along. it was a 5.5 hr round. Good thing the weather was perfect.
Ok but……
Course needs water, fairways and greens are too hard and fast.
Wide open, no rush
Great Staff and the Bartender was friendly and very helpful. Great snack for the back nine.
Water on the Course
It be nice to have water to drink some where on the course or have the café open in the summer month. I think operator of the course don't want there customer fall under heat stroke.
