Indian Palms Country Club & Resort

We started this course with the online pictures in mind and the hopes for an amazing experience. We quickly discovered that the Royal course was not so royal. The tee boxes are a mess. The greens are awful. And the fairways were in exceptionally rough shape. They have been doing a lot of work on this course to restore it to its once former beauty, so it is worth noting that they are trying. But to charge the rates they are for a course in this condition is not acceptable. The Mountain course was beautiful. I am so glad we finished on that course rather than started on that course because it left a much better impression than the Royal. I would avoid playing this course for another season until they have it back to how it should be.

Driving range was closed, facilities were dated/worn out, poor golf conditions (especially on Indian) despite cart path only, score cards didn’t match placards at teebox, some tee-boxes ( I was playing from the “whites”) missing markers (Mountain course) and leaving me to guess where to tee off, some water features were empty (no water), and in one “pond” on approach to green had a dead goose that we smelled before we saw it. If you enjoy the game, I would save your money and wave this course off.

Not sure how this course gets any stars of rating.

I have never had my driver's licence taken from me, and not returned until I return the key to the administration office at any other course.

The Mountain course just opened after over seeding, so I understand it isn't in top shape, but the Indian course hasn't been scalped yet to overseed, and there were many hard bare spots, with no signs of them trying to improve it. The holes on the greens had ragged edges, and didn't appear to have been moved recently.

I live walking g distance to this course, and haven't played there for a number of years. I thought I would give it a try, as they claim to have made major improvements. Sadly, it seemed in as bad condition as I remembered it.

Love the layout and the pace of play was great. All of the staff are super nice as well! Great burgers in the restaurant!!

Dirt everywhere. Fairway’s had very little grass. Mostly dirt. Greens had lots of dirt. Online rate was $40 but course charged $65 Crazy. We will never play this course again. It was that bad.

Came out for the weekend and found this place. Wasn’t crowded…staff was great and the course was fair. Would definitely come back.

I understand that they were getting ready to overseed. At some point you should stop taking money for golf, when the conditions are so poor. Range balls came in a grocery bag of "found" golf balls. Indian nine was dated and boring. The Royal nine was better and could be okay with grass. Missing signage, rundown. Staff was friendly.

If I could describe to you the worst maintained course I’ve ever seen, I would’ve described something better than this course. I have never experienced such poorly maintained greens, tee boxes, fairways, you name it-it was abhorrent.

There were multiple Ant mounds all over the greens, if you can even call them that- because that would imply they were actually green. The tee boxes were not even remotely consistently labeled, horribly cut and there were burnt spots everywhere along almost every fairway, not to mention cut limbs left everywhere on the fairways too.

To charge $135 for 2 golfers is just insane, especially considering how many people they attempted to stack up on top of each other to the point where when we hit the turn, people were trying to scalp our golf cart because they were out of carts before 10am.

I will tell everyone I come across to avoid this course to save them from the disappointment. This shouldn’t even be listed as an available course to book.

We were set to tee off at 7:02 , we arrived at 6:30 to hit the range. We were prompted to tee off right away by the starter to avoid any groups. There was only one other group of 5 carts playing together as a group so we tee’d off the back 9 (Indian course.) the green side sprinklers were still going by the time we hit the green, leaving us to put in a swampy mess. The conditions were atrocious, over grown tee boxes and fairways. Good luck finding your ball. The included photo is the tee box. The greens were slower than molasses. It appeared that the Indian 9 was closed but they sent us out anyway. You could be liable to lose your ball in the fairway it was so overgrown and unkempt . The back nine was slightly better and appeared to be maintained about half way. Green keepers are aloof and expect you to hit into them while they are maintaining the course. Oh well. We did finish in about 3 hours without seeing another group after teeing off. Ghost town vibes

Save your money or play at one of the many other better courses in the area.

This course is worst than playing in a cow pasture. It’s like playing in a dirt driving range that hasn’t had watch in years. Patches fairways, over brown tee boxes and dirt putting greens. Golfpass should cancel this course

Used to be a nice course, hadn't played in years. Looks like they are giving up this course for good. I was the only person on the course that I saw playing. I play in the Coachella Valley very often and this is by far the worst course I've seen in years. Don't waste your money.

Left early. Life is too valuable to waste time at this place.

Stayed in Indio with the family for my son’s birthday, and the wife gave me the green light to squeeze in a round before we headed out. I was hoping to beat the heat with an early tee time and the only nearby option was Indian Palms — and honestly, it didn’t disappoint. Teed off at 6:30am, had the course completely to myself, and had a great time.

Now, the course could use some TLC — the greens were a bit rough and some tee boxes were pretty beat up. Layout’s traditional, nothing wild, but enough to keep it fun. Would I play here again? Sure… but more of a last-minute backup kind of spot.

The major of the grass on the fairway was either dead or dying. The greens were horrible, same conditions as the fairways. My party was expecting a far better golf course with it being on a country club. I guess I got my money worth with only paying $40 a player. We should have played a the PGA West course.

First of all the greens were all puddled with water. One green has a hose running on it like wth. On the last hole a worker took my ball off the fairway and switched it w an old dusty ball . When i confronted him about it he said he didnt speak english . Worst place ive played at. Will never go back!!!!!

The course was in really great shape. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. Great course for the cost and caters to every level golfer
