Indian Canyons Golf Resort: South Course
Palm Springs, CA • Public
Overview
Originally opened in 1961 as the private Canyon Country Club, the now-public Indian Canyons Golf Resort is a 36-hole facility set at the base of the San Jacinto Mountains. Over the years, celebrities and politicians have played at Indian Canyon, including Frank Sinatra, Bob Hope, Dwight Eisenhower, Lyndon B. Johnson and Ronald Reagan. The property is surrounded by mountains on three sides, often shielding the courses from the wind. The South course has relatively wide fairways guarded by numerous bunkers that often have tall faces. There are plenty of palm trees lining the fairways that can cut off angles for approaches to the small greens.

Review
“Fairly typical old style desert resort course located at the base of the San Jancito mountains in Palm Springs. Wide expansive fairways leading into relatively small well protected greens. Good diversity of long and short holes with water impacting play on six holes. The par 3’s were especially strong requiring accurate club selection. The routing of the back 9 was a bit convoluted especially the placement of the par 3 16th. On date played, fairways were a bit long negating roll out and the greens were soft causing the ball to not release consistently. Overall, the course was entertaining and enjoyable to play."
