Par 72
Length 6794 yards
Slope 127
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.

Decent value

Exceptional greens. Good value. They had outside tree trimming service on front 9 which caused some obstructions, but otherwise it was desert golf at it’s finest even with a day of windy conditions. Would like to play again on a day with less wind.

Great, Fun Course

Great fun course. Good condition, the pace of play was great, and while it was challenging it wasn't too over the top difficult as some courses in the area are.
