El Dorado Country Club is one of Indian Wells’ most prestigious and private golf communities, offering timeless luxury, world-class amenities, and a strong sense of tradition in the heart of the Coachella Valley.
Tucked into the foothills of the Santa Rosa Mountains, El Dorado Country Club in Indian Wells is an iconic and ultra-private community known for its legacy, exclusivity, and elegance. Founded in 1957, this member-owned club has been a beloved desert retreat for generations of prominent families, celebrities, and business leaders who value discretion, tradition, and top-tier service.
The centerpiece of the community is a beautifully manicured 18-hole championship golf course designed by Lawrence Hughes and later refined by Tom Fazio. Residents enjoy panoramic mountain views, lush fairways, and impeccable privacy. The club also offers a newly renovated clubhouse, fine dining, a state-of-the-art fitness center, spa services, and a vibrant social calendar.
El Dorado is strictly member-owned and maintains one of the lowest-density layouts in the valley, with approximately 182 custom estate homes and homesites, each uniquely crafted to embrace the natural beauty of the landscape. The architecture ranges from classic mid-century modern to contemporary desert estates, many with unobstructed views of the golf course or surrounding mountains.
With 24/7 guard-gated access and concierge-style community management, El Dorado offers peace of mind and a level of privacy rarely found elsewhere. Membership is by invitation only, underscoring the club’s deep sense of community and exclusivity.
For those seeking an unmatched blend of heritage, elegance, and community, El Dorado Country Club remains one of the desert’s most coveted addresses.
