About this course

SilverRock, a former host of the Bob Hope Classic, unfolds dramatically at the base of the Santa Rosa Mountains in La Quinta. The Arnold Palmer Classic Course, known for its generous fairways and formidable bunkering, presents a stark contrast to the rugged desert landscape, favoring the bold player who isn't afraid to challenge the course's length. Palmer's design, while seemingly forgiving from the tee, demands strategic thinking on approach shots. The undulating greens, protected by strategically placed water hazards and deep bunkers, test even the most skilled putters. SilverRock's modern design reflects the era's emphasis on playability while still offering a championship-caliber challenge. While not historically considered among the nation’s most storied courses, SilverRock remains a popular destination for golfers seeking a challenging and visually stunning round in the Coachella Valley. Its accessibility and proximity to Palm Springs make it a favorite among locals and tourists alike, drawn to the resort's amenities and the allure of playing a course once graced by PGA Tour professionals. SilverRock is truly a course that allows the surrounding nature to blend within its course.

Getting there

SilverRock Resort lies in the heart of the Coachella Valley, most easily accessed via Palm Springs International Airport just twenty minutes northwest along Highway 111. The drive from the terminal unfolds through a landscape of date palms and mid-century modernism before yielding to the dramatic backdrop of the Santa Rosa Mountains, which rise abruptly from the desert floor. As you turn into La Quinta, the resort emerges against a canvas of rugged peaks and open sky - a public-access gem positioned squarely within one of California's most storied golf corridors, where the desert's stark beauty frames every approach.
