I enjoy Indian Palms because it fits my eye. Even though the condition of the tees and fairways is so-so, the greens are fine. My only real complaint is the way the club sends off groups. Yesterday, my group was assigned Royal to Mountain. When we finished Royal and went to Mountain, there were two groups waiting ahead of us who were just starting. Our four round turned into a nearly five-hour round. The club must refrain from sending new groups off a particular nine until the earlier groups have started their back nine.

Indian Palms Golf Resort

Entrance to the facility takes far too long (19 minutes in a line), course has been worked on but conditions are extremely poor. Fairways, tee boxes, greens receive the minimum for daily care and maintenance. Fairways and Tee boxes are not attended to one cut daily and perhaps once a week at best. Staff shortages are evident, but the staff there are very friendly and trying their best. Pace of play at close to 5 hours is horrendous and unacceptable for a course like this. Surrounding land and many of the properties are unkept and an eyesore for the golfer. Overall experience was poor and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone at this stage. Our foursome was very disappointed in the experience.

This course is pathetic.

I have never played a course in such terrible condition.The green fees should be $20 not $75.

Don't go there it's a cow pasture.

Golf day ok

Ok day on the course . You get what you pay for. Not an elite facility. Conditions average, greens not receptive , very hard . Contouring of course leads to good shots running into bad areas, that said, you need to be straight and avoid the water .

Skip It

Ugh. So frustrated at this place. Arrive and they have no carts avail. Starter was not overly friendly. Finally 2 carts are “ready” and off we go. I have never seen so many weeds on a tee box. There are dirt mounds from some animal all over the fairways. It was backed up on the 4th hole because a group ahead was waiting for pro shop to replace their cart because the battery died (on the 4th hole!). Three holes later one of our carts died. Greens were horrible. Trust me… the $60 price tag was not worth it. Quit after 9 holes

Poor shape

This was my first game of 2023 and playing with a high handicap friend, I can appreciate the openness of the course and it was good practice to just get out and swing. The course was rather boring in that way but ok. Half the greens good, the other half needed some help but mostly, the fairways and such seemed really run down. Yes there was some rain in past couple days but WAY TOO MUCH debris on fairways and several tee boxes just needing a cut. Grass too long, debris and an angle made it tough. I ran into a person who has stayed on the course for the past 12 years and he said when new owners took over three years ago, they just cut costs everywhere and let it go. I’m Canada east coast our season is short and golf often costs more but a course like this should cost about $50cdn as it was pretty much straight away every hole. Paying $75 USD was was overpayment for sure nice weather and good company saved the day. Had I been on my own I’d be pretty upset. Mow your lawns and clean up the debris and be proud of your work for gosh sakes

Needs some TLC

The Mountain Course is in terrible shape. Very little grass on fairways, also not cleaned up. Golf carts frequently run out of battery life during the rounds. This has happened to us a few times.

Do Not Play This Course

I have played here over the course of the last 10 years. I've always enjoyed the challenges it presented, but this year the course has really gone down hill. Fairways and rough are in terrible condition. It's a golf course that looks like it could close down any day. I would never suggest playing here to anyone. If you get a chance to play here, DON:T!! Go somewhere else.
