Tee off in Style

 

Featured in Golfweek’s ā€œTop 20 Courses to Playā€ in California, Indian Wells Golf Resort is a tee-time dream. Located steps from Renaissance Esmeralda, the resort wraps the hotel in lush greens, tranquil lakes and jaw-dropping mountain views. Yes, you’ll want to set that alarm early—it’s worth it.

The Celebrity Course, designed by Clive Clark, spans 7,050 yards with 18 holes and plenty of splashy water features. Meanwhile, the Players Course, crafted by John Fought, stretches 7,376 yards with bold bunkers and championship-worthy layout.

Both courses bring the drama, but choose Celebrity if you love a risky water shot. Pick Players for bunker strategy. Either way, the vibe is playful, the scenery stunning, and the game? Always on. Bonus: Indian Wells Tennis Garden is nearby for those who want to double down on play time.Ā
