Horrible

I would say I’ve played my share of courses throughout my life. I have never written a bad review about anything, but this course was horrendous. The fairways were dirt patch, and the greens,You couldn’t even call them greens they were sand and dead grass. Just a waste of time and money. I should have ask for a refund
Don’t waste your money or your time😡.

A Sad Golf Course

This course is an embarassment to its owners. What could be a good track is just not properly cared for. Don't waste your time or money on this one.

Sad little course.

This was my second round of the week and I was not impressed. It’s a good thing the fee was so low thanks to golfnow. Indian 9 was terrible for greens and fairways. Basically bald.

Royal was much better. I could find grass on the greens.

Nope

Mountain course is in terrible condition. Palms course condition was okay. I would have rather played Palms twice because Mountain course was so bad.

Indian Palms Golf Course

This is a real ________. They must be very proud to have sand greens. They don't tell you that before they take your money.
The starter.........WOW.......looks like he's the only person that knows golf.
Like I said........this is a real ______ and they should repay us for wasting our time.

Royal & Mountain

3 Nines here - played Royal/Mountain.
Played with a frequent player here. He helped with tips and also reported that Indian nine was in poor shape and needed work.
Pace and price were probably reflecting this.
I was satisfied with my round.

Indian Palms Course

This historical course has seen better days. We played Royal which was not in real bad condition but not optimum. Then we played Indian - the course was in terrible condition. Greens we covered in sand and the bunkers were awful. I never leave a bunker without raking but I did today - couldn’t tell the difference anyway. Staff was friendly, cafe was good. Great hotdogs (a little pricey but what’s not these days?). We won’t be back.

This is not a course that should be on your radar

I played this course with my wife and with our favorite golfing couple
We were extremely disappointed in our experience
There was very little green on the golf course
The greens were suboptimal and some of the greens were actually lost particularly several on the back 9
75 dollars for this experience was high way robbery
You can find a better golfing experience elsewhere
We will not return here to play golf again

California Dreams

We thought the course was in poor condition.

A bit overpriced for the condition of the course.

Our dreams have been turned into nightmares.
