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.

We had an amazing round of golf!
Some buddies and I tried Big Rock for the first time and had a perfect day. The course is in great shape, especially the greens. Staff was awesome from the minute we drove in the parking lot to when we left. Amy the Cart Girl was amazing and efficient as she came by 4 different times in our round. Beers on the upper deck watching the 18th green was a great way to end the round and day! We will definitely be back!

Very Nice Couree
The course has a lot of open fairways and was in very good condition. Greens were good. We had a problem with 30+ winds but that was not any fault of the course
