That said you're a fool to pay the kind of money to play this course for the weekend rate of $165. This course is not that great in my opinion. Plenty of brown patches at various locations around the course. Number seven's greenside bunker has absolutely no sand in it whatsoever. Slow play galore, we waited on every hole on every shot; a marshall was no where to be found to help speed up play with the groups ahead. Greens were good with a couple of pitch marks on every green not being repaired (that's to be expected though no matter where you go).
The product delivered for what I paid instantly reminded me why I haven't played the course in close to 7 years.
The driving range was the busiest I've ever seen though.

Played on Saturday 8/13. Overall the course was below par in terms of shape. A lot of bare patches all over the place. For the most part the greens were ok, however one of the holes (I think 8) was terrible due to people not repairing their pitch marks. But, when you're paying $30 for the twilight rate, you can't complain too much.
I've played Rancho San Joaquin hundreds of times and the current condition of the golf course is probably the best I have ever seen it. The greens were very well manicured and rolled pretty well with the occasional "mysterious" wiggling. The fairways were in decent shape although bare in some spots. The tee boxes were very lush from the black tees. The pace of play was pretty good considering that an older gentlemen was in our group and struggled to hit the ball more than 100 yards at any given time.
For $28 dollars (Thursday after twilight) the price was right. The course was decent however I would probably rather play a course like Mile Square since they have a better rate. I would definitely advise someone not to play Rancho on the weekend due to 1) the pace of play and 2) the rate is outrageous.

Played early this morning due to a tournament that was scheduled a little later in the morning. The overall condition of the course was good. Pitchmarks on the greens were a bit of an issue; it almost seemed like no one was fixing their marks, something that I would expect from a place that charges $100+ to play there. Carts were rarely allowed anywhere but the cart path which was annoying because you couldn't get an accurate yardage to the green.
Overall the course is nice, however it's definitely not worth paying over $80 to play and most certainly is no where near worth paying their weekend rates ($160). If you absolutely have to spend that kind of money than you would be better off driving 4 miles down the street to Oak Creek.
P.S. The waterfall by the 18th green looks very cool from afar, the odor however was terrible. I found myself trying to hold my breath for as long as I could anywhere around the green.

Played on 10/18 for the first time at this course.
The course layout is pretty straight forward and there really aren't any blind shots during. The tee boxes are in excellent shape; they are very lush and aren't torn up. The fairways for the most part were in pretty good condition; I didn't notice any bare spots on the course. The greens are soft and fast; these are in great shape considering most courses are punching their greens this time of year. Some parts of the course were over-watered; the locals I played with said that they tend to over-water the course for some reason.
The course was worth the money IF you book via GolfNow.com; I paid $62 bucks through GolfNow.com opposed to the $125 they are asking for at Riverwalk.

I made the trip out to Riverside April 26th to get out for their twilight rate at 1pm. The course was not busy at all, I ended up just playing by myself, several groups waived me on through, thus was able to finish in about 3 1/2 hours.
The course condition is in great shape from tee to green. In my opinion this course wasn't that difficult with short holes and wide fairways, I ended up moving back to the black tees by the 4th hole to make things a little more difficult. Most of the par fours were the same formula with long irons off the tee and wedges/short irons for the approach. The 18th was definately a fun hole.
I would definately recommend the course and I am looking forward to another visit over the next several weeks.

I was able to get out for a round of golf on the Classic course for the fourth of July. Overall the course is in pretty good shape from the tee box all the way to the green. I felt that the green fee of $47 was fair, considering that it is Orange County.
I would definately recommend the Classic course for anyone looking for a relatively cheap green fee for the area on a course that is in decent shape. The course did play slow though, which I was anticipating (roughly 5 hours and 15 minutes).
