Rating 72.0

If you're sick of getting beat up and spit out by all the big-name, big-bite courses in the Palm Springs resort area paradise of La Quinta, Big Rock Golf & Pub at Big Rock Golf & Pub at Indian Springs could be the course for you.

This track provides a reprieve from the hacker battering. The design is pretty straight forward. Water only comes into play on two holes. The fairways are mostly flat.

Golfers can get into trouble in the desert areas bordering some holes, but as long as you're not too wild, the pain should be kept to a minimum. Big Rock Golf & Pub at Indian Springs is all about golf as a fun escape.

It's not a course that feels like it must make hackers prove something. The slope rating at this John Gurley Sr. design is 127 for men, 120 for women.

Overlooked Gem

This course is often overlooked because it is away from the more popular resort courses. It is in beautiful shape with a great layout. It even has a rock and roll themed bar and grill with autographed guitars everywhere. I loved the fact that the par 3's on the course were rated as some of the most difficult holes.

Fun

The course needs to work on making their tee boxes flat. Many are crested making the tee off stance slanted.

Always in good condition

Teed off around 11:30 and played in about 3:15. Some thin lies in the fairways as the grass transitions to summer Bermuda. Great facility for the price. Been coming here for 20 years.

Awesome course

This will be my go to golf course when I return to the Palm Springs area. The layout was nice with some challenging holes. The course is well maintained. From the tee box to the greens and everything in between. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The themed restaurant and bathrooms were memorable. We played this course in 4 hours. Bravo!

Very windy, but still enjoyed the round due to great staff and course conditions. A slow group ahead, but played through and it was smooth sailing.
