A good outing!

I played with two friends who also are familiar with the course. We had scheduled. Via Golf Now and changed the day because of the wind on Monday. I had to change the time to accommodate a dental appointment. The staff were very accommodating and got us a good time later in the AM. It all worked out well and the temperatures were comfortable, partially due to the light winds. It was a good outing, perhaps our last until next fall when we return.from our summer RV travels.

A good day of golfing

I introduced two friends to the Boulder after first introducing them to the Pebble. They enjoyed it immensely and shot some of their best scores in recent history. We were all three enthused and look forward to returning.

Welcome treat!

I discovered the course through GolfNow’s Hot Deals. We were able to book an early morning time and were graciously received after having mistakenly travelled to Mountain Vista first. We were started upon arrival and had no sight of players in front or behind us spite of it being a busy day. We enjoyed the course and marveled at the beautiful lay out with water features at nearly every hole. The greens were more challenging than I anticipated for a Par 3 and made for an interesting game. I look forward to returning with more friends to introduce them to the course.

Good corse for good price via GolfNow app!

We had a 6:57 AM tee time with no one on the course in front or behind. The sunrise made for some challenges on the first two holes. The greens are fast this time of day! We plan to reschedule soon to improve our scores via increased familiarity with the terrain. I was disappointed that my SkyCaddie range finder could not locate the course to give me accurate distances on the fairways.

Pristine Greens!

Our first round was a wonderful experience! The course was in pristine condition for an early morning round of golf. The scenery is spectacular and the music coming from an event at the tennis stadium was surreal. We will be back.

A beautiful day in the neighborhood!

I introduced three friends to a round of golf on Pebble today. I was delighted by their enthusiastic response to the course. I am confident they will return with their respective friends as well. I look forward to introducing them to the Boulder course when the rust shakes out if their golfing skills.

very relaxing round of golf with friends

The value of the course was augmented by the Golf Now app which charged $48.00 for four persons. The range was a pleasure to use. I like the balls being placed out there instead of lugging buckets. The course is very forgiving for rusty players and yet the greens are among the more challenging in the Valley. We look forward to returning to golf in Indio after travelling from the Nothern climates.

Thank you

A good morning experience.

We enjoyed the wide fairways but we're challenged by the deviously placed sand traps. We will be back to tame them, too.

A good morning experience.

I booked an early am tee time to get as many holes in as possible before the forecast Ed thunder storm arrived. With no one ahead of me, I was able to get in 12 holes before the wind and rain chased me off the coarse. The layout was very readable, even for a first time guesr

Excellent short-game primer

I had the privilege of being one of the first players on the reopened course. The fairways and greens were in superb shape. The birdies and pars were a real boost to my confidence. eager to move on up to Boulder.

A fine outing!

I was greeted by Eric and provided a very courteous introduction to the two courses. I played solo and had no one in front or behind me . I was particularly appreciative of the course over views provided by Eric from the Pro Shop. I chose the course from a Golf Now promotion and will return to play it again.

A grand round!

I got an early morning tee time to beat the heat. Played solo and quickly caught up with a foursome. They graciously allowed me to play through. Finished 18 in a little over three hours! I' ll be back!

G4eat experience?!

I had played Pebbles three times but this was my first time on Boulder. The fairways were wonderful ly groomed and the greens were true with few surprises. I am eager to return, especially given the value of the Cimarron Players Clubs discount!

Welcome Back to Indio Lights!

I find this par three course to be like a familiar friend. My early AM tee time allowed me to have no one in front or behind me for a very relaxed outing. The mowers keep the fairways and greens in pristine shape. The varying pin placements keep the course challenging.
I'll be back!

A Good Day at Red Tail

I had booked a reservation through Golf Now and was able to walk on to the first tee as scheduled. I was paired with a talented young man for the front nine. He knew the course well and offered some key pointers. The back nine was more challenging with two young men who were playing their first round in 12 years. The back nine had more sand and water hazards to spice things up. I enjoyed the course and the company of my playing partners. It was a good outing.

A Good Day at Three Rivers GC!

I enjoyed the course and found the I fairways and greens to be in good shape. The roughs and sand traps were manageable. I did not lose a ball for a change! My round was made all the better by the two gentleman who welcomed me into their group and shared local knowledge of the course. The 9th hole is a bear!

Ranch & Vineyard courses

My step-son and I had a great afternoon of golf at Steele Canyon. It was all that we had heard and more. The courses were challenging but the beauty of each fairway and green layout more than made up for our bruised egos. We played on Monday without pressure from any other players ahead or behind us. All of the staff we encountered were cordial and pleasantly helpful. I was frustrated that neither GolfLogix or GolfNow GPS apps worked to give us yardages, however.

Best value in the Valley!

Indio Lights is a terrific value for an extended executive course. Choosing a tee time in the early AM means perfect weather conditions and having the course almost to yourself. It is an excellent place to work on your short game with the bonus of a few holes in the 200 yard range. The greens are well groomed yet challenging to read. I prefer quality and value over glamour.

This was my first outing on Carlton Oaks but many more will follow! The extensive bunkers and long waterways require extra concentration and shot planning. The greens are in great shape. I look forward to acquiring a more "local" knowledge of this jewel!

High desert splendor!

This was a first time outing on a challenging course. The Marshal was very helpful in pointing out particularly challenging features and offered suggestions to manage them. The more challenging holes on the back nine also had signs with "expert" recommendations on how to approach the hole. The 18th hole caught us by surprise. It required careful strategy at a time when our brains and muscles were fried by the 90 degree heat. I am so glad we started in the early morning!
