In Great Shape

The course conditions are great right now and the water coolers always had water. I don't believe anyone in our group ever had a bad lie in the fairways. The greens are in good shape. I didn't putt well but I'm not sure I can blame the greens.

Nice setting. Long course from the back tees.

Good value.

GREAT CONDITION!!

The entire course is in terrific shape for the Summer! It's in great shape for any time of year really.

Friendly staff. Water coolers every three holes. Tee boxes, fairways, and greens in great shape. Even the bunkers are well maintained and in great condition.

I didn't have to relocate not even one ball in the fairway because of a burned out patch. The fairways were plush! Yes, plush! Greens were great, not too firm. Tee boxes were in great shape. (A little uneven here and there but not too big of a deal)

The layout is fun. A little challenging due to the location of the fairway bunkers.

Overall this course was fantastic!

Nice Layout, In Good-to-Great Condition

Nice course in pretty good condition considering the time of year. Mr. Minor was very helpful in getting me started with helpful info and general friendliness.

The maintenance crew has done has fine job on this course. The water isn't in that great of shape but we're not playing in the water.

Nothing wrong with the layout whatsoever.

Overall a great experience.

VERY ENJOYABLE ROUND

Indian Canyons South Course had been recommended by several people and I was not at all disappointed. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I'm new to the area and they treated me like a friend.

The setting is fantastic! The course is in great condition considering the time of year. The bunkers were wet and sort of packed but can be played out of without an issue.

Beware of some of the palm trees. There are a fair amount of them. The ones that are full of palm leaves are also full of golf balls. If you hit into one of these tree don't expect to see your ball again. Palm trees divide many of the fairways. They are great to look at but don't hit into them!

The par 4's are not very short for the most part. The par 5's are not very long but a challenge nonetheless.

I really like this course and look forward to playing it again.

HOPE TO NEVER PLAY HERE AGAIN

We had an early tee time but they had to mow the greens. So we waited and waited on front. We get to the back and catch up with other groups. They started groups on #10. I guess managements remedy to a backed up front was to start groups on back; at the expense of those that got up early to get their round in. They could have at least kept the place of play up. Really nice.

There is a long entrance with walls on both side when you drive in. Rabbits get trapped in the entrance and can't get out. There is a good chance you'll have to dodge them. I'm guessing it's like that every morning. Cutting/building breaks in the fence would give the rabbits a place to escape.

GREAT TIME!

Had a guest in from out of town and really enjoyed the course. The fairways and tee boxes are plush. The greens were a little firm but not too bad. Great gps on the carts. I would definitely recommend for anyone interested in golf. The 18 green is a little hidden by a mound so don't be surprised if the gallery doesn't see your birdie putt. This place is awesome though. Great Pro Shop!

Rough

This is nothing against the guys that work there, I'm sure they're doing the best they can. The greens and tee boxes were in pretty good condition. The fairways not so much. There are very few yardage markers, no gps on carts. The clubhouse feels neglected. There were a handful of practice balls available. The group behind us was gathering them from the range. Maybe it's the time of year, but it wasn't a good experience.

Very Enjoyable Course

Hard to beat the value. I really liked the course.

It's a par 70 with only 2 par 5's but you can make up for the birdie opportunities on the par 3's. I think 2 of the par 3's are around 100 yards. It's not that long of a course but it's not that easy either. The par 4's are challenging for the most part.

No complaints. The staff was very friendly. The course was in really good shape considering it's July.

NO RESPECT

Very disappointing because of 1 person, the Superintendent. He was jumping in front of me and turning the water on before, or even while, I played the hole. It was the afternoon and I only saw one other golfer on the course. He was 2 or 3 holes ahead of me and no one was behind me. But the Superintendent would get between me and the other golfer and water! WHY NOT WAIT UNTIL I PLAYED THE HOLE AND THEN TURN THE WATER ON? NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME! Water(ing) was an issue on at least 4 holes on front.

As I headed to #10 the Superintendent drove in front of me and began soaking the 11th tee boxes. I couldn't even pull up to the 10th green because of the water. I went back to him and asked him "why don't you wait until I play the holes and then turn the water on?" Superintendent says, "Oh, ok. It won't be on anymore." The water was on on the next Tee Box!

I'm not sure what the % is but most golfers repair their ball marks, fill their divots, rake out the bunkers, don't drive past the No Carts signs, etc. Why then shouldn't we be treated with the same respect? When I started to think about this I packed up and left.

The layout of the course is awesome and the course was in fair condition. The rest of the staff were very great, helpful, and apologetic. They offered to refund my green fee.
