Indian Wells is one of the fine regions in the country to enjoy gorgeous weather, golf and gorgeous Desert scenery. Amidst the area you will find Toscana Country Club, which is the last private country club in Indian Wells, California . Whether you are looking for world-class golf, a relaxing spa, or a new home, this country club has it all.
Golf fanatics are always looking for reputable courses to provide a challenge and pure entertainment at the same time. When you think about golf, two names typically come to mind; Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. For this reason, it only makes sense to try out a course that has been created by the best in the game.
When becoming a member of the Toscana Country Club, you will instantly gain access to two extraordinary courses that have been personally designed by Jack Nicklaus himself. This is a golfer that knows what it takes to create a fine course. He and designers put in countless time to mold and piece together two courses that will satisfy every golfer that steps foot on the links.
While golf is a big part to every country club, this is just the beginning for what you will find at the last private country club in Indian Wells. Keeping with the physical play, you will find a full sports club filled with everything you need to stay fit and healthy. Life is too short to sit around and watch television. Why not make the most of it by staying active in th
e gym.
You will find a plethora of different machines and weights to accommodate your personal workout routine. In addition, there are separate rooms for Pilates and stretching to work every muscle in the body. If you are looking for a little guidance, there is a studio with expert trainers leading personalized fitness programs and yoga courses as well. This fitness area in my opinion is one of the finest I have seen in the Coachella Valley
The fun does not stop inside the sports club as there is a great deal of activities to offer outside the building as well. The Charlie Pasarell Tennis Center features a magnificent stadium court for large matches filling the bleachers. And if you are looking for some good clean fun with friends, there are five tournament courts to swing the rackets and tone your skills.
While golf is a must for every country club, so too is a pool. Whether you w
ould like to lay poolside and relax, take a dip to cool off in the warm weather, or play around with friends, the pool is always a hot-spot on the complex grounds.
Now that you have worked out and built up a sweat, it is time to kick back and relax at the spa. Between the hectic work schedule, taking care of the kids, and putting your body through a vigorous workout routine, it is nice to treat your body from time to time.. Heading over to the spa can help relax your mind, body and spirit. There are several different services waiting for your visit including facials, full body wraps and hot stone massages.
There are a plethora of additional amenities available for guests, members and homeowners to enjoy year-round at the Toscana Country Club. The Villa Toscana offers a terrific place to kick back and relax with friends at the full bar. There is nothing more relaxing than talking with friends over a delicious cocktail or frosty beer. If you would like to pick it up a notch, there are multiple dining rooms and private board rooms where you can hold parties as well.
Moving right along, the next area to move to is II Forno Trattoria. This is one of the finest and most alluring private bistros in
the desert. It is set on a peninsula location ad features outdoor and garden dining for casual and romantic settings. Between exquisite food and tremendous service, you are sure to have a delightful experience.
Becoming a member of the Toscana Country Club is one thing, but what if you could consider this dream life an everyday experience by living in one of the many homes within the country club? Each of the homes features a rich design from Italy, Spain and early California.
There is nothing duller than finding an entire community with the same floor plans and designs. Within this community, you will find a plethora of different floor plans to choose from as homes range anywhere between 2,790 square feet to 5,400 square feet. To get your dream home in this gorgeous community, expect to find prices ranging from $1.2 million to $3.3 million.
The list of reasons to check out the Toscana Country Club, Indian Wells is endless. From world-class golf designed by Jack Nicklaus to a full out sports gym to gorgeous homes with numerous floor plans to choose from, there is a little bit of something for everyone at the last private country club address in Indian Wells.

Indian Wells is always looking for ways to better and improve the city & homeowners lives plus the enviroment . This is their latest.
City Launches New Community Garden Project

Do you have a "green thumb" when it comes to planting? Do you like to garden but don't have appropriate space where you live? Or do you simply like the idea of meeting others in a beautiful outdoor setting?
The City of Indian Wells is in the process of establishing an organic Community Garden adjacent to City Hall. This project not only offers yet another benefit for residents, but also supports the city's commitment to sustainable living practices. Ryan Bowen, the city's expert landscape architect, has already planted a sample garden (see his fabulous example in these photos) and would be available to assist residents with their individual plots. Indian Wells residents who wish to participate and cultivate a garden bed would pay a nominal $25 fee per year to establish and maintain their gardens.
An organic Community Garden offers many benefits: In addition to providing fresh and pesticide-free flowers, vegetables and herbs, it provides an area for socializing, offers a natural teaching/learning environment for people of all ages, and creates a sense of community pride and stewardship of the land.
Fifty (50) 4-foot by 10-foot garden plots will be available for planting. An interest list is now forming. To learn more and add your name to the interest list today, call City Hall, (760) 346-2489.
