Scenic View of Course Photo submitted by u000005094963 on 02/14/2013
slow play 5 hours and no help from rangers.
The course itself is ok, too many coots and coot poop but otherwise ok conditions. Nearly every green is elevated making approach shots tough for oldsters.
Big complaint us the slow play. We began at 8:30 and finally pulled in to the cart return at 1:20. We saw two rangers talking about slow play but did nothing about it.
Great Course … Excellent Value
We got a great Hot Deal from GolfNow for our booking, so the value was excellent. Even the regular rate would have put this course high on my list of good value golf courses in the area. The greens were firm and fast, but well maintained and playable. The fairways were in good shape and wide enough to manage most off-centre drives. And, the layout was excellent … with a good mixture of hole lengths and features. A few of the holes had excellent views … and overall a very pleasant experience!
On the negative side: there was a homeless camp adjacent to the course, with a few extra people walking or biking along the course. Also, in general, the rough got real rough real quick … sometimes not playable. And, the 9th hole does not return to the clubhouse … so make sure you pack ample food and drink for the entire 18 holes.
Overall, a great course with enough challenge, features, and different layouts to satisfy most golfers. Be prepared for the full 18 holes, and you will enjoy your day golfing at Tahquitz Creek - Resort Course!
Needs a 19th hole
Course is in great shape, excellent staff, fabulous layout. The problem is the clubhouse closes at 5:00. They need to stay open for an after golf drink and a bite to eat.
Indian Wells Ricks
Excellent challenge in great shape. Friendly staff. All you can ask for.
Fun and Friendly
Wide open course with only one water hole. Fun and friendly for the recreational golfer on vacation. Pace of play was very good.
Course layout
I almost got hit by the ball hit by the group behind me. We were just finished on the green, and I was the last one moving toward the next hole, then the ball zipped through my cart right in front of my face. I think the the group that was following me thought I was not there. Apparently the carts are not visible from the second shot place in the fairway of that hole. However, a lot of greens are close to the tee box of the next hole, and often I felt endangered cause I was facing toward the people from either the previous hole or the next hole hitting toward me. Other than that, people, course, flower beds, all was great!
Good course
The course was in excellent shape. The greens were fairly quick,and rolling true. Fairways were in good shape and wide enough for you to miss a little, but still recover from errant shots. Starts out easy, with a few easier holes, but there were plenty of challenging holes to keep you focused. Pace of play was excellent, until the 13th hole, when things got backed up for no apparent reason. It did finish decently,at just over 4 hours.Can’t complain compared to some other courses in the area. Overall, great round of golf, with plenty of challenging, and some easier holes. Would recommend the resort course to anyone.Staff were friendly and knowledgeable.
Slow round
The course was fun to play but we had to wait on ever shot as the foursome ahead of us was at least 2 holes behind the group ahead of them. Then on the seventeenth and eighteenth they picked up the pace so they could finish. We should have finished 1/2 hour earlier.
Nice course - good value for money
This course was a pleasant surprise. All was good (except for a hitch at the start, where someone tried to take my 1pm cart and the starter tried to tell me I did not have a 1pm time). I had the time, the people in the cart getting ready were the ones in the wrong. Their name did not match, but they were all set to go.
The course itself was fun and in fine shape. A bit slow - there were 3 groups in front of us that were playing a tournament amongst themselves - and were very slow. No marshall on the course to tell them to be considerate of others. We got all 18 in, but the last hole was getting quite dark and we started at 1 - should of had plenty of time.
Fully Met Expectations
First time playing IW. The Celebrity course lived up to expectations. The conditions were for the most part excellent. Greens were running at a very friendly 9.5 - good for managing pace of play. Only knock is the number of ball marks on the greens, but I can’t fault the course for that - that falls on us players. GolfNow pricing was $120 for a 2 pm tee-time, and we managed to finish 18, albeit for the last two holes it was getting pretty dicey.
Sling time in the desert
What a gorgeous golf course! Long par fives, water on the par threes and tremendous vistas all over. Fairways are in great condition and so were the greens. Definitely worth the time and money to play this gem!
Course featurs
Good fairways and greens. Play below the hole!
No water on legend course except one hole
Great for a mix of good golfers and beginners. Nice practice areas. Two negatives: 1- range Balls need to be filled more frequently and practice area need to be moved prior to becoming grassless. 2- several sand traps need a sand refresh or maintenance to ensure a good consistency.
I believe there is high value for the price paid. Pace of play was excellent.
