Welcome to Indian Wells

An Affluent Resort Community

Indian Wells is a premier residential community and world-class sports destination located in the Coachella Valley, between Palm Desert and La Quinta along the Highway 111 corridor. Indian Well`s rich history began in the early 1800`s as a pivotal watering point and stagecoach stop for prospectors seeking their fortune in gold from the Colorado River. Caleb Cook was among the first settlers to the area that would later become the City of Indian Wells. Arriving around 1910, Cook and other early settlers are credited with pioneering the establishment of the Coachella Valley`s date industry.
 
The golden era for Indian Wells came in the 1950`s, when residents, led by E.M. Peterson, began augmenting the city`s development from a flourishing agricultural center into an affluent residential and resort community. The late 1950`s saw the construction of the Eldorado Country Club as well as the Indian Wells Country Club and Golf Resort. Desi Arnaz was one of the founders of the Indian Wells Country Club, and he and his wife, Lucille Ball, would go on to open the Indian Wells Resort Hotel as well.
 
 

World-Class Tennis

Indian Well`s history as an acclaimed destination for tennis began in the late 1970`s when city officials and residents developed an innovate plan for municipal land investment and development. Tennis pro Charlie Pasarell moved his Pilot Pen tennis tournament to Indian Wells and would later build the Hyatt Grand Champion. The tournament outgrew this facility and moved to its permanent home at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in 2000. The prestigious tennis tournament would be renamed the Pacific Life Open in 2002, then changed to its current title, the BNP Paribas Open in 2009.
 
 

A Rich Culture of Art

Indian Wells is also home to the thriving Indian Wells Art Festival that takes place every spring at the Indian Wells Tennis Gardens. Consistently boasting over 200 juried artists from around the globe, the Indian Wells Arts Festival includes all mediums, as well as live performances and entertainment, cocktails, and curated culinary confections, making it a popular place to experience rich creative installations and enjoy a relaxing weekend in one of the finest locales in all of Southern California.
