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.

Horrible Condition- Stay Away!

Was swarmed by fire ants on the 4th hole where the creek runs into the pond, behind the green on the left side.

Even though I lost consciousness momentarily and reported it to the Pro, the same ant hill was there 2 weeks later when we played our rain check round (which was reluctantly given).

This course has the potential to be good but it has been badly let go.

Course needs help.

Golf course was extremely rough. Tee boxes were in disrepair, the greens were bumpy and not much grass. Sand traps were like concrete. Not a well maintained golf course.

Course needs a lot of work

We've golfed this course many, many times, but unfortunately I wouldn't be able to recommend it to my friends. The Royal 9 was ok but the Mountain 9 didn't have any green grass. The greens were like putting on dirt. Too bad as we used to enjoy playing there.
