I played mid-morning today (Sunday) and I have to say that the course is in the best condition I have seen. The greens, which used to be shaggy and slow, have improved to a consistent, moderate speed. Tee to green, the course is interesting and very playable.

My only complaint is the pace of play. A five and a half hour round in Corona when its 101 degrees stops being golf and starts being a triathlon at about the fourteenth hole.

Remember when the golf magazines and many prominent public courses were banging the drum about slow play? Maybe golf courses should make golfers pay after their rounds and charge by the hour like they do at pool halls.

The course is in great shape. The sand needs work.

The course is in very nice shape. It is very lush and the cool wind make the condition very pleasant. What most impress me was the greens. Although it was a bit lush and would do for a good mow, it was consistent but most of all very smooth. Once I got acustom to the speed, it was a good day on the green. The hard part was getting on the green. What surprise me was the thickness of the rough. It was so thick that the ball would sit up on top of the rough. You better pick it clean out of these rough. Unless your name is Tiger, hacking and chopping out these rough will not get you far. The few fairways I found were also in very good shape. The course has wide fairways and large greens. The only difficulty is avoiding the trees and negotiating the wind. Used an email special and played the early afternoon for $26 with a cart. For this price it was worth the greens fee. It is regularly $44 with a cart. I went out as a single and was able to finished in 3 hours( after a 5some and 4some let me play through).

Played here again on Sat. 07/15/2006. Course again is never in bad shape. Played in a tourney and not much has changed since my last post a month ago. Leaves are still everywhere and a noticeable breeze was lingering all day. Again becase of the leaves, keep your eye on your ball. Course is relatively flat with mature trees. Only thing is the train tracks cut through the course and it seems like the train comes by every 15 minutes. I think the train engineers like to play games and blow their horns the whole time they cut throug just trying to throw off some golfers. Some of the greens are showing some signs of yellowing but it's not affecting roll...yet. For the cost and conditions, I enjoy playing this track and will be back soon.

Played Sun. 06/11/2006, tee time of 11:30 am with a 5some (all must ride). The course was relatively empty and we played at a farily good pace without to much waiting. The course is in a wind tunnel so depending on the day the wind can really pick up. Even on a good day the wind is noticeable but not unmanageable. Yesterday was one of those noticeable days. The cart girls were all over the course. We must have seen them every other hole which is rare these days. Needless to say we were well taken care of. There also must have been 4-5 marsahlls out there keeping the pace up. Conditions here have always been good. Faiways are kind of dry but still green with some yellow patches. Greens are in good conditions and very receptive, some ball marks but that's not the courses fault. You can't ask for much more at a muni course. Very mature tracks with plenty of Mature trees. So depending on the season, that means Lots and Lots of leaves, so keep your eyes on the ball because the leaves do a good job of camouflaging them . WIth the wind the course is fun to play often because it's always a different course. Cost is fair and they are even in the red dot book too.

Played Riverside course 6/10/06, course is in great shape, worth the green fee and drive from South OC.

The course is in great shape except for the sand traps. Pace and service were all fine.

Played super twilight at 2pm on a Sunday for $17. Not bad at all. Especially after the rain damage early last year, I like the Riverside course mich better than the Orange course (some holes shortened to ridiculous lengths and layouts). Conditions were ok. The wind is always a factor here. Not sure if worth the regular weekend green fee, but for twilight rates, it's a nice track. The starters are always friendly.

This course is NOT in great condtion. Probalby the worst it's been in a few months. Most of the fairways are patchy with dead/dormant spots. Greens very inconsistent from hole to hole. Not worth f... Continue »

This course is NOT in great condtion. Probalby the worst it's been in a few months. Most of the fairways are patchy with dead/dormant spots. Greens very inconsistent from hole to hole. Not worth full primetime rate, barel worht twilight rate. Pace of play same as always for Green River on a weekend....4 hours 45 minutes. There are courses that cost les in better condition right now. In a few months though Green River will be back to being a very nicely conditioned track.
