Played on Saturday (1/02/09). 7.05 am time and finished about 11:15. Played Canyon Crest and Ridgeline. Greens--true and fast, they are a pleasure to putt on, no frustrating bumps and rolls. Fairways--excellent shape--the recent rains helped, but they had dried so that you got good roll. The bunkers seemed well maintained, thankfully I only noticed by look and not experience. Tee boxes-- were level. Views--outstanding, doesn't get much better for an inland course. Customer Service--nothing but praises on all levels. Great. Always love it when I play MCC.

Played with my brother-in-laws the day after Thanksgiving. I played in the summer and the greens were suffering! I loved the layout, but knew I wanted to wait until the course was in better condition. Well, the wait paid off. The course is in great shape, and the greens are looking very good--they could be a little faster. Maybe once they grow in more, they will be shaved. But that's me--I love fast greens. I hope the ponds will be filled soon. This will add another feature.

This place in one of the best. Unique holes, great views, friendly staff, and nice pace of play. To put things in context, here are some of the better courses I have played: Robinson Ranch (love the greens), Moorpark Country Club, Tierra Rejada (front nine is great), Tijeras Creek (back nine is a challenge), Lost Canyons, Black Gold (course beat up in August, but nice layout), Angeles National (intelligent holes), and Eagle Glen (suffering from dry summer when I played).

I will be making the trip more often. This is a great place to unwind and enjoy seeing God's creation joined with man's imagination.
