About

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.

Steamy mid day round

Course was in good shape as usual. Aeration is coming soon. So…. Went around solo in about 2:45. They never let the course go brown and dry out. Can’t say that about some courses out here. Greens always roll nicely.

Simple layout

Simple layout. Good condition. Plays fair, but really short Par 4’s for the ladies.

Great track

5 stars, the only change I would like to see is the bar open earlier and a more frequent beverage cart.

Always a Favourite

Great Course with good rates available. Only objection is the need to buy balls for a warm up on the range.
