![]() The wait appears to be worth it. Not only do golfers have a complete clubhouse to enjoy, the building ranks among the most architecturally significant in the Coachella Valley. “We’re glad it’s complete and it’s an unbelievable addition to the resort, but it’s also a state-of-the-art building that is very modern, from its amenities to its attention to detail and quality of the finishing,” General Manager Jeff Lessig said. “It’s a remarkable building.” The most stunning feature of the clubhouse, built in a “modern desert style” by Phoenix-based Douglas Fredrickson, is a waterfall in the grand lobby that cascades from the top floor to a collection pool. There are several dining options, from casual to elegant, and the pro shop is stocked with the latest golf gear in addition to everything from sport coats to gowns. Game improvement also is part of the complex, which includes a nine-hole putting course and a Callaway Performance Center with two fitting bays. “Golfers will receive the same club-fitting experience that a player like Phil Mickelson gets on tour,” said Lessig, who added that the IW Club makes the Indian Wells facility tough for visitors to beat. “It’s certainly got to be in the conversation,” he said of the best resorts in the Coachella Valley. “It’s off the charts.” For more information: (760) 346-4653 or visit indianwellsgolfresort.com.
