Rating Snapshot
About
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 was a great par 3! This is zoomed in so you dont quite get the percetion of the distance. A solid 175 or so, over water and well protected. Photo submitted by ThatGolfGuy on 09/26/2016

Sub par
Back nine confusing ,under construction and not fun to play. 16th green a disaster . Hopefully when construction is finished it will get back to where it used to be.

Hello, thank you for leaving us a review. We are sorry to hear your experience was anything short of 5 stars, but we hope you will give us another try in the future. Thank you for choosing SilverRock Resort.
Disappointed
I played this course 1 time previously and conditions were much better. Conditions of the greens and bunkers were substandard.
Hi, thank you so much for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make note and we hope to see you back at SilverRock Resort!
Silver Rock
Silver Rock is a ver nice course, but they are doing construction. It was a windy day when I played; therefore, it was very dusty. That makes the course less desirable at this time.
Thanks so much for the great review. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing SilverRock Resort.
Hello and thank you for your great rating! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing SilverRock Resort!
5 1/2 hour round
Beautiful course, super friendly staff. We did have to wait for the groups in front of us . They slowed the play dramatically. Wish the Ambassador had more influence.
Really nice course, not too challenging but not too easy either. Great time.
Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing SilverRock Resort.
Heaven
Fairways were so amazing-did not even look real! Tough-no bail outs near the greens-but so challenging. Best course I played in most of life!!
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. SilverRock Resort thanks you!
Hi, we would love to hear more about your positive experience on our course. Please contact us to share with us your favorite part of your experience. Thanks for golfing at SilverRock Resort!

Nice layout, large-scale bunkers, lots of construction
The course has good bones from a layout and strategic viewpoint. It has a nice variety of holes. It has water in play and some punitive pinched landing areas. Playing right at the base of the mountains is cool. The course conditions were not great and there is massive construction happening all around the course. It is not very walkable. It is a fun course and with better conditions and after all the construction is done, it could be 4 stars.
Hi, we appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Your feedback helps us do better. We are looking into this issue and hope to resolve it promptly. Thank you for visiting SilverRock Resort. We hope you'll give us another try in the future.

Too quirky for my taste. Blind shots . One green was just dirt. Very disappointed for a premium course.
Hi, thank you for leaving us with your feedback. We value our customer experience, so your review is important to us. We will make a note and we hope to see you back at SilverRock Resort!
the front 9
the front 9 is covered with construction from the construction of 2 hotels, a conference center and pro shop. the back 9 was nice.
Hi, thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. Your feedback about the course is important to us. We are working to get everything up to par. We have projects ongoing to recover the fairways and greens. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve. We are going to escalate your feedback to our team so we can make improvements before your next game, and we will continue to work towards an excellent experience by using your comment for guidance. Thank you for playing SilverRock Resort. We hope to see you again soon.
Construction around course
Course was in good shape. One green was questionable. Lots construction. Not a great value for what we paid. Still charge full price with all work being done. But 4 hour round - excellent. Hard to find clubhouse for drink after but service was good when we found it. I would play it again for sure but only after the construction around the course is done.
Hello, thank you for visiting us at SilverRock Resort. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Good as it gets
Played Friday 3/24.
Brought 3 of my friends on a golf trip, played PGA West Stadium, PGA Mountain, and Silverrock, everyone agreed Silverrock was the best of the 3. The front 9 is great, the back 9 is iconic playing back up against the mountains. Staff was extremely friendly.
ONLY knock is the 16th hole Par 3. Looks like the grass is diseased and they are trying to get it to come back.
MUST PLAY
Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. SilverRock Resort thanks you!
Thursday golf
the course is really challenging I loved it! But.....the ingress egress for the sand traps is awful Some do not even have an ingress, others only have one and this really SLOWS down the pace of play!!!!!!
Hi, thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing SilverRock Resort.
Premier Golf destination... in 3 years??!!
Course in immaculate shape!! But beautiful views and flow obstructed by major construction (Hotel, Restaurant, bungalows and housing) with fences and netting along most holes... This WILL be a top PS destination, in a couple years...
Hello, thank you for visiting us at SilverRock Resort. We appreciate your 4-star rating and review. We hope you join us for another round soon.
Pace of play was horrendously slow. Cramming too many groups per hour. We had 3 groups playing on each hole.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
