Course Highlights
Silver Rock's back nine delivers a beautifully challenging desert layout with water features and excellent course conditions that consistently impress recent visitors. Friendly staff and a smooth pace of play make the experience well worth the fair rates.

Rating 75.0

SilverRock Resort is the city of La Quinta's first municipal golf course. This Arnold Palmer Classic Course is the home course of the Bob Hope Classic. At 7,239 yards, it is the longest course in Palm Springs and one of the longest courses on the PGA Tour. SilverRock sits right at the base of the Santa Rosa and Coral Mountains, which provide a stunning backdrop for every hole. It is closer to the mountains than any other public golf course in the area. The rugged landscape provides rocky outcroppings and massive native bunkers to contend with throughout the course. Beautiful water features also come into play on several holes. The SilverRock layout is challenging but the widths of the fairways are fair and playable and the holes are diverse enough to appeal to a range of different skill levels.

This property is a complete mess.

There are too many good courses and facilities to waste your money on Silver Rock La Quinta. All the construction that was intended to create a resort around the Course have been abandoned in a half-built condition. There is no clubhouse other than a portable trailer. This should have all been disclosed on the Tee Off site. What a waste of money.

SilverRock Sad Review

Beautiful course but EXTREMELY windy. However, not pleasant to be driving through all the bankrupt structures. Too much money for that.

Needs help!

Nice course that is being ruined by the ongoing construction or rather lack thereof. The back nine has been adversely affected by this as the homes have been left unfinished with fencing around them for a few years now. Weird that the clubhouse turn is at the 8th hole.. a couple holes felt like they were fit in for the construction. Too bad!

Must play

If you are here for golf, this is a must play course. Great variety, interesting back nine, greens and fairways in perfect condition, sand traps a bit thin. Staff were very friendly. This is up there with the PGA west courses, minus the facilities as they go thru their expansion.
