About

Holes 18
Type Resort/Public
Par 72
Length 7239 yards
Slope 139
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.

Beautiful course. Needs some TLC.

Love SilverRock. Great course. Beautiful vistas. Definitely an abandoned feel with all the construction sites. Hopefully she gets the TLC she deserves.

Love Siverrock but has slipped a bit

One of my favourites courses but not the same. Half finished buildings align the course and takes away from the overall feel of the course.

Amazing layout!

Hopefully Construction of the amenities and the surrounding Development will speed up so the amazing course won’t be surrounded by abandoned structures much longer?

SILVER ROCK

A BEAUTIFUL AND DIFFICULT TRACK , SAND SEEMED TO CALL TO MY BALL TO JOIN IT. GREAT LAYOUT, I HOPE THE CITY GETS A BUILDER TO CONTINUE THE EXPANSION. IT IS TOO GOOD A COURSE TO LET GO TO SEED.

WILL RETURN WHEN THE SUN SINKS LATER IN THE DAY.

Unplayable rough throughout course

When the employee says we have a lot of complaints, not a good situation. I’ve payed their last year and the course was in better shape. Disappointing, we didn’t see a cart person until the back 9

Too difficult for my wife

Distance control is essential to play this course. Beautiful setting. Very deep and inconsistent bunkers.

Challenging but Not Finished

This course has a lot of potential to be great but it has an unfinished feel to it. In its current state, I feel it is over priced. If you play the blue or gold tees, you are in for a very good test but with no clubhouse, a poor driving range and the lack of things you would expect at a top tier resort course, it isn’t quite ready for prime time.

We had great weather, but the course was in fair condition. Fairway turf was thin with patches of bare soil. Some areas of the fairway were saturated with excess water. The tee boxes were in fair condition. Some were not level and most were worn from play or lack of turf management. May divots or bare dirt. Greens were in good shape and rolled straight. Over all, I thought the course was over priced for the condition. I would not recommend this course at the current price.
