Golf Course Reviews
Golf Course Reviews: California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Utah, Florida, Hawaii!Played yesterday. Course was busy due to CIF Tournament on the South Course.
It has been approximately a month since the greens were aerated. They were still a little bumpy. The rest of the course was damp due to watering. Tee boxes were being repaired and there were some temporary tee boxes in several holes. POP was just slightly over 4 hours.

Played here yesterday. Greens are healing nicely from aeration. Still slightly bumpy and soft. Fairways are in good condition but were very damp due to watering. Tee boxes were all being aerated so they were moved to temporary locations. As always great staff.
First time playing since the remodel and before the demic. Last time we played here, we swore that we would not return due the slow 6-hour POP. Unfortunately, it was still a 5-hour POP on a Wednesday morning, with a lot of waiting on the back 9.
Most of the remodel affected the front 9. They changed the #3 hole to where the former #9 par 3 was and it no longer uphill.
The fairways were a little thin but did have grass and balls did roll after landing. Greens were not holding shots and would roll between 5-10 feet after landing. They were firm but were slow as they were a little shaggy. They were sanding them when we were done with the round. Some roughs were tall and have not been cut making it tough to find your shot.
New tee times booking procedure. All tee times are booked through the website, they will not take reservations on the phone unless it's for same day play. There is a $10 per player deposit required which is non-refundable if cancelled less than 48 hours before tee time. Also, an additional $10 per player for each no show in your group.
Still on the fence if we'll return to play here.

First time playing this course. Upon arrival you come up on a newly remodeled clubhouse, which overlooks Hole #10 and #18. There is a practice green but there is no driving range. Good first impressions.
There are a lot of narrow tunnels that you have to drive through in the course. I did not care for the design of the course. The par 3 average 190-200 yards from the blues. There are a couple of Par 4 that are only 200-215 yards. A lot of narrow fairways and dog legs. The back nine fairways are a little larger. Greens are small.
Some fairways are being repaired and some are muddy. Greens were aerated couple of weeks ago and are still very shaggy. Fairways were being mowed when we were playing so hopefully they will be short enough for your ball to get some roll when it lands. At $59 I would play it again, anything higher than that and I would skip.
The 19th hole and the staff was the best part of the course.

Played yesterday. It did get hot towards the end of the round. It is one of the longest courses in California. Greens were nice and rolled true. Shots held if landed on the green. Due to the heat some of the fairways did have some bare spots. They will start aerating/sanding the greens next week as they aerated/sanded the North Side this week.
FYI they are also repaving and painting the parking lot, so half the lot was closed.

Last course we played on 9/25. This is a resort course with many amenities. Shuttle available to the pro shop from the main parking area as there are not many close to the shop.
Front 9 has a lot of ups and downs, dog legs and elevated tee boxes. It is mostly goes through the wooded area and can be punishing if hit out of bounds. The back 9 is a lot flatter and mostly parallels the resort. The greens are small, so landing them in the center is the best. Carts do have GPS so this helped out.

Played here on 9/25. I would compare this course to Torrey Pines with much better conditions. The scenery is spectacular with a lot of holes with an ocean view. Still no GPS in carts.
Local told us to land all your shots below the pin as any puts above the pin would most likely roll off the greens. They were correct, as the greens were also fast. The rough was not as punishing as the tall grass had dried out and it was easy to find your ball. The fairways were in very nice condition except for some unfilled divots.
Very fun and with spectacular views. Small clubhouse and eatery at the end of the round.

Played here on Tuesday 9/24. It's a beautiful course surround by farmland. Not a lot of amenities at the course. No cart service. No cart GPS to navigate the course. Lots of blind corners so GPS or course knowledge is a must. No paved cart paths so watch for signs or you will drive the wrong way. Small clubhouse and cafe at the end and at the turn. Not that many restroom facilities at the course.
So the course is nicknamed La Pirahna and I can see why. It was difficult. It has a lot of ups and downs. Greens were fast with a lot of undulation. Lots of narrow fairways. Roughs had tall grass and if you land there, good luck finding your ball. Again course knowledge is a must.

Played her last week on Sept 23 as part of a 4 day group outing. It was a very warm day with no cart service, but there was a snack bar at the turn. However, the golf course staff were great. The clubhouse was nice but closed before we finished our round, due to the course preparing for a 3-day tournament.
The course is pretty flat not a lot of ups and downs. The course was pretty damp as they were watering a lot for the tournament. Greens were nice and flat they did roll true. Fairways were nice and green and did have a lot of roll after your balls landed. Roughs were not that high that you can still locate your ball after an errant shot.
The layout of the course was somewhat confusing as you had to crisscross some tee boxes to get to the next tee box. Cart signs were not accurately placed to show where to drive your cart. There is no GPS on the cart, to make it easier to navigate the course.

Played Monday 9/16. What can I say. There is a lot of maintenance going on the course. Several fairways are closed to cart traffic. Lots of resodding. No discount being offered.
This was the last course we played for our golf group outing. Rack rate was $125 but given a discount because tee boxes were being aerated. It was a windy day when we played.
This course has a lot of up and down elevation. Some target golf as some fairways had some cervices that separated the fairways. Greens were in good condition and did hold shots when landed properly. Fairways were nice and lush and rough was cut higher but not penalizing. The greenside bunkers were compacted red sand. Cart GPS was very hard to read as it had a very small screen and only read distance to pin.
Overall I would rate this course at a $75 rack rate not $125. Staff were very friendly. For those who play the Inland Empire, I would compare this course to the likes of Hidden Valley.

This was course #2 in our golf group outing in the St. George area. It had the best scenery, especially through the back nine. Course conditions it came in #2 behind Black Desert. Rack rate was $125.
The course is a links style course with wide open fairways and nice greens. Tall thick grass beyond the rough made it difficult to find your ball if you landed there. Greens did not hold your shots and were fast. Most of us landed short and rolled it up to the green. Course was nice and green throughout. Greenside bunkers contained slightly compacted white sand but still easy to hit out off. Carts had GPS showing distances to all shots. Hole#16 Par 5 tees were moved up due to construction reducing it to only 380 yards.
Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Restaurant and clubhouse were very nice and served good food.
