Highly Recommended

Overall great course, well thought out layout with no two holes alike, good mix of short and long holes, dog leg lefts and rights, strategic use of water and bunkering both fairway and greenside. Course conditions must be noted - excellent tee to green and I would have to say some of the best greens I've ever played.

My only complaint is lack of food options mid round - the routing is such that you don't end at the clubhouse after nine so no chance to eat, given this I was a little disappointed with the on course food cart. This is only a minor point and only impacted me as we had a 10Am tee time playing through lunch. Could have been better prepared if I had known but was first time playing course.

I love these two courses

Both courses at Indian Wells Resort are great! Always in good condition, always helpful personnel. My only negative comment is that they are very pricey and i can not afford to play them more often.

One of my new favorites in the Palm Springs area

My brother in law and I (both single digit handicaps) played here for a first time a few months back. IW Resort is one of my new favorite spots in the Coachella Valley! Great staff, challenging golf course and close to everything in the area.

Best Course I have played

Greeted in the parking lot - great start! As a first time player of this course, the staff took extra time to explain how things worked. Great driving range,, the best practice green I have ever seen. The course is challenging, but not contrived, as some are to create difficulty. Course maintenance is outstanding, greens are perfect. The views from the course are a beautiful bonus.
