Indian Palms Golf & Country Club - Royal/Indian
Rating Snapshot
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.
You might become enraptured with Indian Palms' past. But the course itself has very much moved into the 21st century.
Each of the nines carries its own personality. The Indian nine is the longest, with the most straight-forward holes. The Royal nine features water on eight of its holes. (Yes, your break from water is one hole total).

Could not play
They had issues withgolf carts chargers
1 hour delay
We would have to start at 2 pm or latter due to backlog so we opted to go home
Course in poor condition after over seeding. Playing partner's cart quit on the 2nd hole and my cart was chugging until I replaced it at the turn. Carts are in bad shape!
The course is laid out with three separate nine holes
The course is not as good as it was eight years ago. The bunkers are better than most other public courses, but the fairways do need some better servicing. The greens are overall faster than other clubs, but there seems to be a lack of consistency between greens on different holes.
There are no free water facilities for golfers. Other courses have these fee water facilities with containers, lids and straws. Indian Palms does not and they cannot use Covid as an excuse for not providing them.
Good value.
A well kept 27 hole venue that is a great value and moderately challenging. Pace of play can be over 4 hours and that is a drawback unless you play early
Nice course!
It's a wonderful course with a great history. One of the oldest course in the valley. Good course for all levels and ages of golfers.
course review
The only thing bad with course is it was very wet.
Great course
Overall about 7,000 sq ft to cover just perfect you get drive the ball use your short pitch game and putt a little bit of everything definitely going back
Dead cart
Played 5 holes. Waited an hour for a replacement. No other carts were available. Finally just got a refund and left. Total disappointment.
Canada get away
Royal course could use a little bit of love. Indian course better shape. Overall a nice course
Homes too close to the fairways
I was very hesitant to swing as hard as I can because the homes are very close to the fairways and I don't want to hit a home with my golf ball.
Looking fine!
The management team has made some improvements on the course condition and continues to make additional improvements.
Hangar 19 has great drinks and fantastic food.
Fun to play but need to clean up the course the ponds look really bad and just pick up trash and down trees
