SilverRock Resort

I really like this course! There are no condos or houses surrounding it which is hard to find in this area. Good value in afternoon but pricey in morning. Course is in great condition and the greens tough. Hope to play it again while I am here!

Nicely conditioned…
Would be nice if decision on development could be sooner than later.

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.

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!

They should be more transparent about the amount of construction going on. I called and they told me it was only on two holes. In truth, they don’t have a clubhouse. Golf shop is in a temporary trailer. Every hole has some construction project visible.

They should be discounting prices. Disappointed.

I want to like Silverrock. Honestly. I’ve played it a number of times over the last 16 years. It looks great, has a couple of really good holes (7 & 16, in particular) and is kept in pretty good shape. But I was reminded yesterday why it has fallen off my list of preferred courses. On too many holes, well hit shots get unfairly punished by the course layout. Between the numerous blind shots (with a lack of guidance from the GPS), fairways that are pinched into very narrow landing areas for most golfers off the blue or white tees, and the lack of good par 4s (there are only 8 in total, and only 2 where hitting driver makes sense for many (9 & 15), it’s not (IMO) a course that allows you to play to a rhythm or with confidence that a well struck shot won’t be punished.

Spectacular design, and views. Just forget that the villas around the course have not been finished and focus on the course. Really worth every penny! Yes, there is no club house at the moment but if you come just for golf you won't be disappointed!

I love this course! Five stars all around.
The course is interesting, challenging, has the best scenery, and the staff is 10 stars friendly!

I'm sure the course will be restored to it's once enjoyable state of play but until the hotel and housing construction is complete it literally has all the ambiance of a construction site from the clubhouse in a trailer to the dusty cart paths and lack of practice green. The greens are trampled and pock marked and some fairways have brown patches. This course gets tons of play and apparently people are prepared to pay a premium for the experience because it is very overpriced for the current state of play

Beautiful day in La Quinta at SilverRock…ruined by an overbearing and pushy marshal on the second nine of the course. He followed us for 4-5 holes, observing our play, pushing us on (despite having space between us and the group behind), and once even entering our cart while we were putting to look at our gps display (I am assuming to check on our pace of play). On every hole we waited as appropriate to tee off behind the group ahead. We all felt rushed by the marshal, which affected our level of play. All were frustrated and upset by the intrusion into our anticipated fun day of golf with family on our annual trip to the desert. I feel that the on course staff needs some lessons in customer service, especially given the rate of green fees assessed. Highly disappointed.

Much distraction w construction and maintenance vehicles.

Would I play here again? Yes. Did I like the layout and course conditions? Yes. Were there some issues?? Unfortunately, yes. It's a great course and a fun layout. The course conditions were above average. However, the on-going construction (several years now) is cumbersome. From the drive up (clubhouse is a trailer) to the cyclone fencing (it's EVERYWHERE) to the multiple unfinished houses & buildings just sitting and collecting weeds/trash...it takes away from the overall atmosphere. There was one pass of the cart girl. There was one place to get food/drinks (obscure location after the 8th green). There wasn't a marshall in site and our round took nearly 5 hours. It's too bad there are all these issues b/c SilverRock has so much potential.
