Great course!

Had a great experience at the Indio muni! It looks like there making changes for the better, improving the greens some other small things. I'm sure there's more to come! The prices are great! All though I really was not to happy about $10 person cart charge.

Great course for the money

This is a short course but is does have some challenges. They have a practice putting green and a driving range. Very friendly staff and the course is kept up pretty well.

Surprise!

Wife and I played early Apr 18/14. Teed off ahead of schedule. No waiting. Course is a bit tight, but fair. Any par three with a length of over 200 yds is a challenge for our ability. This is a Munie. Very good value for money. Everything is pretty much the way it should be for a quick round. Were off the course in less than 3 hrs easy. Will definetely play again. Nice change from $70-90 rounds.

Nice practice for short game

I played this course because I wanted to "tune" my iron play for a tournament this weekend. It was a nice place to do that. The greens were in fairly good shape and there are challenges to overcome on many holes. It is also a lighted course and open until 10 pm so someone can practice after work and not worry about running out of daylight.

Good greens

Greens were big and good condition and were slow which I prefer.. Fairways were hard and short grass and not watered well. But on a par three fairways should not be a concern if you hit the greens on your drive! Good value!

This course is a fun and challenging par 3.

This could be a great course. At this time it needs some TLC. We play it every year and find the city needs to put some money and care in the course. It is becoming worse every year. But we still like to play the course as it tests our ability.

Off the beaten path, but a gem, well worth the drive.

An enjoyable morning on the course, in great shape, fast greens. Tee boxes could use a rest, but when we finished our game before noon, about 3 hours, there were 7-8 groups waiting to tee off. Golf early!

If external factors stress you out, don't play this course!

This course is perfect to work on the short game. But if you're easily distracted by externail noise factors, you will be challenged (lawn mowers circling around you, noisy generator and maintenance truck on course. If this does not bother you, great Par3 course for little money!

Good practice course

A good practice facility. Could use some work on the tee books. Greens are a little slow, but as I said it is a good practice facility for your short game and iron game.

Great course for a par 3

Course has enough long holes to be challenging. Also water and several out of bounds challenges. usually greens are in pretty good condition.

Great Par 3 course

Great par 3 course that's also lighted for night play. The only problem with this course is when it's busy you are always in danger or being hit by stray balls from every direction, which resulted in a fight between 5 people that day.

great greens

It was very windy the day we played,but didn't affect our play. I was very surprised at how good the fairways & greens were compared to other courses iv'e played this fall.We got a great deal on GolfNow & they only charge $ 14.00 for a power cart,so we took one.The only negative was the poor quality of pull carts.One of our group rented one & it was the best one she could find,but the bearings were gone,so was harder to push than normal.There are some water holes,but not that difficult. Also i don't remember seeing a sand bunker anywhere,so that's good for novice golfers.
I'll play it again.
