Indian Wells California

Incorporated in 1967  it is one of the smallest cities in the Desert area known as the Coachella Valley.  Indian Wells boasts the highest per capita income of any city in the state. Part of the credit of the founding of the city can be traced back to TV legend Desi Arnaz who with several other partners built and opened the Desi Arnaz Western Hills Lodge in 1957. This eventually led to the development of what is now the Indian Wells Country club. The Hotel is now a newer structure called the The Indian Wells Resort Hotel.

President Eisenhower once lived here at the El Dorado and the Bob Hope Golf Tournament was played, for many years, at the Indian Wells Country Club. Indian Wells is home to many beautiful resorts activities and of golf, see more on the city website: Indian Wells California
