Haven't seen a review about this course for a couple of years. Played 8/22 Monday with a 12:06 tee time.
No mosquitos. Course lay out is great. Condition was OK. Rough was thick but overall it was OK.
Busy this time of year. 4 hour round on a Monday afternoon. Played front nine and waited a bit on every hole. Hooked up with a twosome on the back nine and that made pace of play better.
Paid $82 per person because i booked early. If I waited until a few days before it would have been $68.
I would play it again. Not great but OK.

This course used to be in great condition. Haven't played here in about 15 years. Course was full on a Friday and pace of play was 4 hours and 15 minutes.
So here is the question. Why has American Golf spent so little on making this a nice quality course like it used to be? They mus be making money.
Great layout; fun to play but except for the greens the rest of the course needs some work. Not just a drought issue; it is lack of maintenance issue.

Classic course designed by Robert Trent Jones. Conditions almost perfect. Great location. I could go on.
You have to be a member of another private club to play there. So get rid of your pets, forget about your kids and grand kids, they can fend for themselves, go on a diet since food costs are so high, and take that great Governor Newsom gas rebate; then go and join a private club if you are really into golf.
If you only play once a month it is not worth it to join a private club but if you are a real Golf Guru you might find you like the private courses and the other courses you can play.

Had to be in Downey for the weekend. Booked tee time for 12:06 on Sunday 3/27. Teed off at 12:35. Finished 16 holes at 5:30 and called it a day.
I would summarize this course as chaos and anarchy. Seven minute tee times and fivesomes are maybe good for County of LA revenue but not good if you like to play golf unless you like to take 20 minutes or so to play a hole.
Used to be nice to play there since I only stay five minutes away. I think that five or more years ago it was OK but would not play again on a weekend unless I had one of the first tee times out which are really hard to book.
Glad I live in the Coachella Valley now.

I think I might have played with ltislikeimsaying last Sunday. Concur with him.
Haven't played there in some time. Usually play across the interstate where I live at Sun City Shadow Hills which is nice but there was an Agave tournament there last weekend.
Nice fun course. I recommend it.

Haven't see a review of the Legends at Temuku for over a year so I thought I would add one.
Played Sunday 11/14 starting at 11:50. Played in four hours which isn't bad for Sunday.
Course has a great layout. Sadly, except for the greens the course conditions don't match up to the great layout.
Sand in bunkers was iffy at best. Bare spots in most fairways and on all of the tees.
Too bad, I guess they are having money issues but not sure why because the course was busy.

Previous reviews mentioned the course problems but I think it is a disaster.
Price is pretty cheap and since the course condtion is so bad the pace of play was good since nobody wants to play it.
This used to be a nice course. Wonder what happened. Maybe no water access because of the drought. That would explain all the dry spots but not the hard packed bunkers and areas of out of control rough.
Would be surprised to see it open another year unless something changes with the course conditions.

Played today 8/11/21. I agree with Tootall. Not much to add.
Fun course to play. Took 3:45 and it was busy.
Must play if you are in the area.
My rating says 6.9 but not sure why. It is at least a 7.8. Not fancy but fun.

played Friday 8/6 starting at 12:00 p.m. Better than last time I played but still took 4 1/2 hours with no five somes.
Course is cutting back on water so hit a low ball and let it run down the fairway.
People must have gone back to work because not so many party people. Mostly old people like me age 65.
Although as I was teeing it up on No. 9 I heard a guy on adjacent tee No. 6 saying he was just out there to get drunk.
Good course to walk and only five minutes to where I was staying so I would play it again.
Found five balls around the course just laying around. Strange. Nobody came up and claimed them.
Would I drive more than 30 minutes to play it? No.

I have played at this course for last 12 years once a month or so until the virus hit.
Haven't played there in over a year until today 5/2. Had to be in the area on Monday so decided to try it again.
Had a threesome group with a tee time at noon on Sunday.
Course is what it is. Rough but fun to play and the best thing you can walk it if you are in decent shape. Only 65 years old and laugh at the youngsters taking a cart.
I think I know why they take a cart. That is where they put whatever they get high on.
Never seen so many shots from other fairways coming into my fairway and the course isn't that tight. Front nine was played in just under two hours with just a bit of waiting. 2 1/2 hours for the back nine.
Back nine we had two groups waiting on every tee after the 11th hole. No marshals and don't want to get shot telling the slow players four holes ahead of us who were two holes behind to keep up with the group in front of them.
Like I said before in previous reviews the China virus is good for golf because more people are playing so less courses will be closed for housing etc.
However, it is basically a golf get high party if you play after 11 or maybe sooner.
You may be thinking why not play earlier. Good question but my wife of 36 years who likes to play won't play early. Cheaper than divorce.
I am reminding myself to read this review and don't play there again on a weekend until there is herd immunity and a drop off in play.
Until the virus we could go out there around 11 on a Sunday and finish in three hours.
Sad

Noticed a lot of desert reviews so I thought I would add one. Played Indian and Mountain nines last Thursday.
Course is in fair condition. Greens were OK. Fairways were barely OK.
This is an old desert course and there was a change in ownership a few years ago. Course conditions not as good as last year.
However, the green fee at 12:00 p.m. were $48 a person which is good down here for this time of year.
Wouldn't make it a must stop to play but worth the green fee even though the condition is not pristine.
Pace of play was OK. Just under 4 hours.
