Indian Palms Golf & Country Club - Indian/Mountain

When I checked in for a 6.56 tee time, the aloof clerk did not mention that a shotgun start tournament was scheduled for that morning at 8 am. Luckily, I finished the front nine in less than an hour, BUT then I encountered the tournament. A helpful marshall suggested that I return to the front nine, starting on hole 2. So I managed to complete 17 holes. The "ladies" teeing off on hole one of the front nine were indignant when I drove through their teeoff emplacement, but at least they didn't try to kill me.

By the way, on December 6, 2022 the course was not in good shape yet, following the reseeding program. Not much grass anywhere, including on the greens.

So, beware!

Played Indian 9 and Mountain 9. One had been overseeded and one is closing for overseeding next week, though impossible to tell which is which. Little to no grass to speak of on either 9 in fairways or rough. I understand during overseeding things can be a little rough and mostly brown, but most areas of this course were bare. Greens weren't pretty but they were puttable and had grass. Bunkers were dirt/mud, but no sand to speak of.

Fairly tight course lined with houses or condos on most holes. And yes they are easily hittable! Overall for $50 you can have some fun as your expectations are low anyway for the price. Golf shop staff and starter both very nice and friendly. I've played probably courses here in the Valley and I would say conditions here were the worst. But again, for 50 bucks I'd do it again at some point.

Lovely possibilities but today’s play had little grass & lots of dirt and straw. The Mountain course was in much better shape than Indian. Royal was closed for refurbish. Much more care and maintenance is needed to bring this back to it’s past level of playability. End of day photos are spectacular!

Played 9 and then was told I could not play the other 9 as there was a club tournament so I could play the same 9 again and then play other 9 if I want latter, Not what I paid for so be careful when booking to see if the course is actually available for play.

We came here on holiday and we’re unexpectedly stuck behind people who had never played golf. We were disappointed as this held up our play as well as multiple teams behind us. We were feeling pressure from both sides and we did not get to enjoy our game. Teams passed us (even though we were not the holdup) and it was awkward and uncomfortable and made us miss shots. There were zero marshals or cart girls the whole round and we were on our own suffering in silence. We were on our honeymoon and would definitely never play here again. Over 5 hours of time wasted and we didn’t even get to finish 18 holes. I wish we would have known.

Grass condition at Indian Palms is not acceptable. Need to allow grass to grow thicker before opening to the public.

Fairways were dormant Bermuda grass, hard and fast. Greens were rolling 10ish. Quality was not normal for Desert conditions, but neither was the $40 greens fees.

Definitely not worth the money. Not reseeded; no water; tee boxes are terrible

I have been playing this course over the past five years. Nothing has improved. Many of the greens are in poor shape. All fairways are brown and not maintained. Areas immediately adjacent to the fairways and tee boxes appear to be not maintained. I usually play alone because none of my golfing buddies will play at this golf club due to the overall poor condition. I play it because it is low priced on golfnow.com
