Wonderful Example Of Resort Golg

The Celebrity Course is a wonderful representation of an upscale golf resort facility. It’s not punitive in length (five tees make it easy to find a choice that works for your game) or in green protection or crazy slopes. It’s in spectacular condition and the staff is also what you’d expect from a place like this. Everyone was so helpful … you’ll feel pampered.

Satisfy

Even though the green was very slow due to seeding. Everything else was great. Staffs are helpful and friendly. Course are beautiful and great condition. The only fall back is the cart path only. Will definitely go back again.

An Oasis in the Desert

The Celebrity course is a must play if you visit the desert. Great course that has an oasis of golf holes. They do an incredible job of framing the golf holes with flowers, water, and palm trees. Definitely challenging but so special visually!! Can't miss course!! The lower driving range isn't great at all (hard pan) but we were there in October (the off season). Great facility and the staff is wonderful!

For such a hot place the greens,fairways or so nice.... started are day at 745 am which was fine weather a little muggy but bearable.... thanks god they had ice and water stations every three holes or i dont think i can make it through 18 holes ,that being said awesome course cannot find a fault w. the conditions of the course , the only thing is just the weather at Indian Wells it was way too hot , but definitely would like to go back when the area is a lot cooler -

Wrong date

I accidentally booked the wrong date and pre paid. Due to cancellation policy by golf now and course was unable to contact your app. Please refund my card as I was not in town to play the round. Thank you
