Rating 73.2

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 needs alot of TLC - Maybe when you have the 600 additional homes built there will be funds to put into maintenance for the golf course.

Fairways are hard and grassless. Can't get under your ball. Greens are fast...thats nice. Cut tree stuff needs to be picked up.

Poor Conditions

This was once a very well- maintained course. The fairways were in poor condition, perhaps because they were not overseeded. The greens were spotty and had little tufts of grass in the midst of bare areas, making putting inconsistent. I only played two of the three nines, so cannot comment further.

Greens need work

The greens on both Indian and mountain need a lot of work. Pace of play should be monitored...and not weather you are in the time but that you are keeping up with the foursome in front of you.

Poor condition

Fairways grass very thin, no sand in traps, cart paths not edged, tree trimmings on grounds, greens mostly sanded because of a problem with the grass.

Do not play here

The course it self is in very poor condition, fairways, greens all poor. T boxes in very poor condition, many do not have any markings. All the grounds around the course that course would be responsible for are in such horrible condition they could not be worse. No snack shack, no drunk cart. Do not waste your golf money playing this mess. The only thing good about it is the carts appear to be new.

Poor Maintenance

Fairways need grass. Green hard as rock and looks like they have a disease. Course is too long for elderly women.

Friendly Staff

The staff were all very friendly and the course was in good condition and fun to play. The pace of play was very slow but I feel that had more to do with the time of year we played, not the golf course itself.

Many areas were overgrown or junky especially around trees so slowed play looking for balls. Greens on Indian were terrible

Greens on Indian course are in terrible condition.

The most expensive practice balls of any course I have played in this area. Who do they think they are?
