It's a short course but you can't be too aggressive to the pin and just keep the ball below the hole. Make sure to play with the ball you can put the most spin on and you'd need to launch with high trajectory iron shots to have a chance at birdie. The greens are decent and fast in the sun. The fairways need plenty of attentions. Definitely overpriced for current condition.

For those of us fortunate individuals who can get tee time on weekends, this is a wonderful treat. The course is in decent shape but I can't say the same for the attendants.

Who do I have to bribe to get you guys smiling and cheerful? Sure I can settle for your take-it-or-leave-it tee time scheduling but once we are in, do let us feel like we are tiny bit special.

The course tests your skill from how straight and far you can hit your ball from all kinds of leveling lies. Even the practice range is sloped, #$%@!

Even on my bad day I shot 76 from the back tees. I like it and I want to return but I'll keep sending my buddies to deal with you at the window. I don't need sh%t before my round. I get enough from your sloped lies.

Very challenging layout course with many good amenities. Every hole is well designed and bunkered.

So here is the bad news: Terrible greens that cannot even meet the municipal course level. The speed is very slow and the condition is plain poor with plenty of spikes and unfixed ball marks all over the place. They jammed pack the players so close that there are 3 groups of 4-somes waiting on every par-3. It took us 5 1/2 hours to finish the round.

I really want to return but I'd have to wait for consistent good news on greens.

I do love the layout and scenery. Please, someone do something about the greens and marshaling.

First time here and I was impressed with the weather in Moorpark. The course has great amenities and nice practice range ($5 for good size small bucket), and practice putting green that gives away the nice views of the course and surrounding areas.
The fairways are lush and the rough is easy to get out of. It's hard to judge the direction of the wind as it swirled all over the course and difference in elevation made it a bit confusing to get the right yardage. The trick, and the only trick here is to hit your drive straight. Once you are on the green, unlike Lost Canyon, you find yourself making putts. The speed of the green however is slow and I found myself fixing ball marks all the time.
Many par-4s should be used the most with 3-wood off the tee.
Overall, the course is in very good condition and offers tremendous enjoyment. Definitely we will return. Soon.

Oh, they also have a cute cart girl.

The service is great here and the course is in decent shape. This is a good place if you have plenty of time to kill and little money to spend. The layout is tight but if you can master your long irons and hybrids off the tee, pars are easy to fetch. You will see plenty of 5-some and many ladies out there so ready to spend well over 4 1/2 hrs here. This course is shorter compare to Diamond Bar but you will have more fun here. DB is getting out of control with beginners.

If you can't hit the ball straight then this course is not for you. IF you are NOT a single handicapper, please stick to white tee because you will waste more time trying to locate your OB ball. The pace of play was ridiculously slow -- 5+ hrs. The starter sent out 3 groups of 2-somes and they were hitting from back tee with average drive of 190yrds. ARE YOU KIDDNG ME? After 4 holes it was unbearable. Simply outrageous. Marshalls did nothing and one of them had some nerves to ask us how the pace of play was. WTF!
The course was in very good shape. The greens were a bit slow but pretty true. I enjoyed the layout and all par-5s are reachable in 2 shots. I will return but not on weekends.

Took advantage of the Donavan Daily special and the staff was very friendly. The course is in great shape except for the greens -- plenty of bare spots and the speed was unexpectedly slow. I used to love putting those greens there but I can't go back there anytime soon until I hear some improvement of their muni-course speed. Wait, I think muni ones are faster than these. Nice fairways and tee boxes. The rough requires you to bring out your best game.

Yeah we all know the greens were punched few weeks ago but so was Goose Creek and we had great time there as the course recovered nicely like it should. But here the condition was just unacceptable. Did someone say this is managed by Troon golf? I felt like I was playing Griffith park with water and without bugs.

The greens were slow except for the last 2 holes, 17 & 18. Slow play was realized as soon as we saw the first tee and practice green as we checked in. The layout is nice and no tricks thru out the course. All par 5s are reachable in 2 shots. Par 3s are easy.

Not going back until I hear some good news on better condition and faster greens.

Played there for the first time after reading great reviews on this course. I must say it's all true. The course is getting into great shape after being punched few weeks ago. Excellent service and the amenities offered are nice. Very good practice range, better than the Hidden Valley's one nearby. I will return when it's little dryer and hotter to test the green speed. It was a little slow for me yesterday. However, the course is manicured well and I do love their finishing hole.

This is my second time @ Riverside course in 3 weeks. The first time we experienced the course under Santa Ana wind condition and our game was truly tested, and we barely passed. The condition then prior to aerating was excellent. Currently it is recovering nicely and we all love it. The trick here is figuring out the valley wind and picking the right club. The layout is moderately challenging. The greens run true and very straight forward. I only wish #18 is slightly longer -- it would make a tough finish to your round as it did during the windy condition when I had to replace my normal 9iron 140yd shot with 5 iron up the hill.

This golf course looks like it was designed by 2 completely different course designers -- front 9 looks completely different from back 9. $69 for 18 holes but there isn't one ball washers on the course. Be careful, you may bend your divot tool by fixing ball marks. The green sits on bed of rocks, so as bunker -- I ding my brand new SW from getting the ball out. Super slow play and do expect your round to be well over 4:30hrs. The greens are in poor shape with bald spots all over the place. The fairways are decent but you can't drive your cart on most holes. NO GPS.

One thing good: Cart girl sure has some nice legs but she won't bring me back to the course. I'll miss her.

The course plays fairly easy but the 107 degree heat made it very interesting as we walked the 18 holes. The sprinklers were turned on through out the day so it gets annoying. The tee boxes and fairways are in okay shape but I have seen better. The greens rolled pretty true but there are plenty of ball marks and tiny divots that looked like someone has been wearing metal spikes. Overall I like the course and it's in playable condition. I still like Wilson.
