DO NOT waste your time here. Many greens are dead and or have dead areas. Literally weeds growing in the middle of the greens. Very frustrating to have to putt through dirt, dead grass and weeds in trying to sink a 5 footer. Its a shame--otherwise a nice, challenging layout with great design and views. What is going on guys? Go to temporary greens and get an expert in there--you'll save customers in the long run!

So great to be back at MoVal Ranch. Good pricing on a 930 AM Friday TT. Fairways pretty solid, rough was a bit clumpy and not the best---dont hit it out there haha. Tee boxes good to go---no real issues. Greens were the STARS--FAST and TRUE. So happy to see that the bent grass is rocking smooth and fast. I used to love playing here long ago as the putting was so true--line it up and hit it. Miss it...all you. Congrats to the greenskeepers! Only bummer was they left the cart wet and when I put my phone in the cubicle --it was full of water and it shorted my phone out. Hoping that it dries out and I am not out BIG $$ due to poor prep for players. I complained to two guys--a more senior guy and a cart guy. ?? I will be back on this classic Pete Dye design.

Hemet is lookin good right now. Fairways are solid, bunkers are my favorite (a thin layer of soft sand over a firm subsurface and greens are very nice if yet a bit on the slow side. Rough is patchy and not great. Its not horrific potholes and BS clumping grass as some goat tracks offer---but not the best out there. Well worth the green fee ifn you are out east.

Played a quick 9 with the boys at this classy almost 100 yr old + track. Gotta say the conditions here are really pretty dAmn nice for a sub $10 9 hole track. #2, #6 and of course the BEAST OF THE IE #9 as always are not easy holes. Fairways pretty lush, well cut and watered. Sand in bunkers better than many of the so called "daily fee" goat farms out there that just cant or wont rake em and or put in sand. No weeds in these guys. Putting surfaces rolling at a 10-11 --very comfortable to putt on. Get out there --just do so before 4pm as that is their last TT.

Currently offering the last tee time of the day at 4pm.....what a joke. No option to come out later to try and beat the heat. They're blaming the Corona....unlike any other course that wants your biz. City course so it stands to reason they wanna get out of there and minimize their workload. Really a shame they are treating the public this way. Zero oppty to get in golf after working a day.....which for years was my go to after work 9 to practice

Played nine w some buds after finding out Fairmont closed at 4pm for last tee time.
It had been about 6-8 years since I'd last been out here to Jurupa.
Pleased to find absolutely immaculate practice greens. Amazing.
On course.....many fairways were just fantastic on front....some a bit browned. Straightforward holes lacking a lot of character but a nice walk nonetheless. On course greens were nice with medium speed unlike the quick practice greens. Traps properly maintained despite the covid plague. Wanna mix up your game.....it's a Riverside gem still going strong!

Wow, the old General is beat street. Fairways are clumpy, grass sparse and generally in crap condition. It literally looks like they've taken to spray painting some of the fairways.....the green starts at a specific portion .....it's bad they're 50/50 alive/reD and colored. Not sure if they have taken a big budget hit or what? Greens for the most part still nice as were bunkers....so that makes up for the sad state of the fairways. Great practice facility and always great folks in the pro shop.

Play here often.... Amazing track. Great design, fairways, bunkers, greens all are in very nice shape! Old growth oaks, streams, families of racoons and no homes on the course. Ocean breezes from the coast don't hurt. If you haven't been here.....get out and enjoy... There's really nothing like it in southern California.

Played here a few days ago. Fantastic people in the pro shop and the cart guy. We showed up without a tee time and were advise that there were no carts available. The current attendant encouraged us to walk and gave us pull carts and advised that at the turn he would have a cart for us. Fantastic that that he was looking out! We were about ready to leave and he changed our mind....
The course.... Pretty back and forth. Not too inspiring. Greens SLOW and not that receptive. Some greens were really diseased and burnt out with areas that need help badly. Bunkers were great. Definitely a nice track..... However I'm looking for something a little different to fit the eye. I won't be back. If you'd like something different give it a go....
$35 each on a clickitgolf.

Wow! Just got out to visit this great course. Got on with a Passport although I guess theyll let ya on with the new Federal Real Id California license....
Great to escape the IE heat for a $40 (w cart) $25 to walk round. They had said a big Armed Forces tourney had just been run the day before and man was the course in just fantastic shape...
Greens were flawless poa annua.....a bit slow going up, downhill a bit quick for sure.
POP was 4:15....hardly a soul there. Great proshop, great practice facility where Tricky Dick Nixon supposedly landed his chopper when he played here.
A challenging course....be aware of the tees suited to your hdcp. Eg..white is like 6300.

A but out there for some, a bit of a hassle to get on base...but 5-15min and you're cruising to course..
Get out there! Enjoy it while ya can!

Just played Stonehouse to Oaks starting at 4pm on a Friday. Hardly anyone on course. .. $28 super twilight.
Course in great shape.
Stonehouse course is challenging..but despite the previous posters complaints. ...if you just drive up a bit, you can see the routing easily. Bad bounces? That's golf...if you can't hit it straight....yeah...you'll have some of those. Stonehouse 9 is one of the most unique and scenic courses for 100s of miles.
Green's in great shape, although a touch slower than I prefer.

Oaks 9.....one of my favorite courses anywhere. So scenic, so serene. 200+ yr. old Oak trees, cool afternoon breeezes....
Not much better you'll find in SoCal.

Get out there. ....I'd agree with previous poster on just this.....skip the creek....a bit on the boring side.

Word on the street is that the Pechanga bought TemCreek and will.bulldoze the Oaks.....I'm hoping that I heard wrong and the plan is to bulldoze Creek....but I'm doubting that given the topography of the course and the access to the land on the Oaks side. That would truly be a disaster for Temecula and IE golf as it truly is a very special place. I wouldn't be surprised though given what we have seen on golf these past years.

Wow, it looks like it's been awhile since a rating of this place.
With the expectation of the mid-afternoon heat, I decided to take the drive up for a quick early back 9 at what we use to call El General. Man, has this place really taken a dump.
Tee boxes shaggy and uncut on many of the holes...slightly uneven as well. Fairways.....Fairways were horrible. Thin, weedy, some large areas of dirt! My nice drive down the middle at 9 was rewarded with a huge patch of dirt hard pan (wet) w weeds to hit off of. Greens are bumpy, clumpy w dead areas and areas of some diseases....weird yellow and green colors. These made for very frustrating putting. I used to come out here years ago for the back 9 and the greens were PURE poa annua.....fast too. A real bummer. Sand was well raked w/ a wet mud consistency. Rough was atrocious. ....reminded me of what Riverside Golf Club used to offer.....weedy dirt clump...terrible to hit out of. I'd be very dissatisfied if I was a Riverside local. Such a shame. I won't be back to play for minimum 6 months. Course superintendent needs to figure this out.
