Enjoyed the course

Haven't played here in over 9 years. Loved the course , pace of play slow due to cart path only. Hope to play it again next year.

Nice layout

Nice layout. Liked the in cart gps. It gives exact yardages and hole layout. Spectacular views. Played the intermediate tees at a little over 6500 yards. Greens were a little slow but smooth. If you know where Indio is, you can read the green better

Great golf

A great course with great views. Greens were a little slow for my liking but no impact in the joy of playing. Nothing can beat Celebrity but this is a close second.

Spectacular views and unforgettable round

From the moment you enter the property you realize you are in for a treat. The facilities are incredible. The staff makes you feel important , especially PhysEd, the starter, what a character. I’ve played several other courses in the area during September and none are in the condition that Indian Wells was in! Breathtaking views that will have you pulling out your phone to take pictures more than you use your range finder. The greens putted true and fast allowing me to make my career low score with 5 birdies! A bucket list course for sure!!!

Players @ IW

Played the Orange Tees (6538/71.6/130) with Matt, Perry and Ron in around 4.5H mid day. The weather was over 110, muggy, clear and fairly calm. Thanks to Johnny for setting this up and for IW for having us out!

Really like this John Fought layout that features 7 sets of well spaced tees. Par 72 (37-35). The course is a good mixture of flat and rolling hills. Challenging layout featuring many holes with fairways that are either narrow in the landing area or require turning the ball to get in prime positions. The course conditions were excellent overall.

The Bermuda tees were lush and nicely maintained with few divots.

The Bermuda fairways were lush and very nice to play from.

The Bermuda rough is mowed down and not overly penal with good coverage.

The sand traps were well maintained with fine sand.

The Bermuda greens were smooth and putted medium speed. Firm with few ball marks. These large greens have many subtle undulations with few straight putts. Large challenging green complexes.

I appreciate this layout more with each round played here. This course would be challenging to walk since there are numerous tees hundreds of yards from the last green. The customer service is always excellent here. Plenty of ice/water stations on the course. Nice GPS on the carts. Cart gal was around numerous times. Complementary range balls on an all grass range is a plus. Highly recommended.

Great Course

The course was in great condition especially for the end of summer. The greens could be rolled and play a lil quicker, but you can’t ask for much more from the desert in the month of August!

Beautiful Course...Crappy Greens

We booked directly on the course website...no mention that the greens were just punched and not puttable. The check in staff didn't say anything either. You can imagine our disappointment when we reached the first green. The rest of the course was amazing. We played in the afternoon so there were very few players on the course. Learn from our mistake and call before booking your tee time.

Best deal in the Desert

Terrific layout that is both challenging and beautiful.

The amount of vegetation flowers and greenery is amazing. Fair for every range of handicap. Greens were in perfect condition albeit a bit slow due to the late afternoon round. The clubhouse is spectacular and the pro shop is very high end.

Very helpful Marshall moved us ahead of a tournament

A joy to play

First time playing the celebrity course at Indian wells. It is instantly in my top 3 funnest courses I have ever played! Both par 5s are reachable with good drives from the correct tees. The 4th at 491 from blues is a classic risk reward hole. Hit it over the tree guarding the right side of the fairway. From there it was only a 5 wood for me, mostly carry over water but you have some room before green to work with. (Probably 20 yards or so.) The par 4 12th is reachable at only 250 yards. Not much trouble around green so blast away. There are quite a few strategic shortish par 4s where you can hit many different clubs from 4 iron to driver depending on how you want to play hole. These are balanced by 4 long par 4s from 410-450 where par is a great score. Course was in fantastic shape from tee to green. Greens very pure. Don't forget about the grain on the Bermuda greens as they influence virtually every putt. This course is much wider and more forgiving than the players course. Anyone from scratch to high handicappers can play this course and enjoy it from the correct tees. I played with my wife and father who are both high handicappers and they both enjoyed it very much, but maybe not as much as I did! Will definitely play again, and again if I get the chance.
