Played Creek/Stonehouse on Sunday morning in about four hours. The new golf carts have arrived and are top notch. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The tee boxes were all level with good coverage but a few were very dry and firm. Getting a tee in the ground was dangerous. The rough is a few inches long and is good at slowing down the wild drives but short enough to hit from. The fairways all had great coverage with a few tight lies on a couple holes. The traps were actually being raked by the maintenance crew as we were playing the Oaks nine. The green were excellent with very few balls marks and quick as usual. The quality of the course is very fair for the fees charged. The location of TCGC is always considerably colder than the rest of the valley which can make for some frost delays and chilly early rounds.

Played on a chilly Monday. Course is in great shape except it looked like they had not raked the bunkers in a few days with lots of foot prints in them but always found a good spot to set the ball. Greens fast and true and held shots well, only complaint was a really unfair pin on the par 3 7th hole on the creek, completely unfair spot that made the hole almost unplayable. I guess that's what happens when the greens are really fast and they put a pin on a giant slope.
Anyway, fairways great with great lies all day and the rough was consistent. Fun track and wish I played out here more often. also, not charging holiday rates on Presidents day. smooth check in and good customer service and enjoyed the day. typical covid stuff but the snack bar open and their was a beverage cart out as well. Played Oaks and Creek, so those two nines are great, can't speak to the other nine.

Mid morning Sunday round in around four hours. The staff is great and the new carts are promised by the end of the month. We played the Oaks/Creeek combo and were loving the conditions. The course is hosting The California State Golden Tour and we were joined by a fourth who was playing in the tournament. The tee boxes were all level but a couple of the par 3's were pretty beat up. Most of the rear tees were set as far back as they could be and the pin placements were also set in difficult positions. The fairways had nice coverage with not any bad lies just a few that were a little tight. The rough was its typical few inches and not too penal. The traps were all in great shape with plenty of sand but needing a good raking. The greens on the Oaks nine were somewhat slower than the other two nines but with more noticeable slope. My regular playing partners and myself really enjoy the club and course.

Early morning four hour round on the Creek/Stonehouse nines. The course is such a great place to play. Staff is always great even if the new carts have not arrived yet. Tee boxes are all level with a couple being a bit beat up. The rough is just long enough to stop your poor shots but short enough to hit from. The fairways have great coverage with a tight lie here and there but not many. The traps have dried out and are in nice condition but all need to be raked! The greens were fantastic as before. They are very smooth and quick but hold well struck shots great. The scenery is great throughout the course with only a little freeway noise on the Creek nine. The rates with the players card are very fair and the other inclusions are great! Recommended

Played on Thursday morning and the course is great. Played the Oaks Creek 9's and they were dormant fairways but still had some green on them but they played great and had no problems. Greens were the highlight and were lightning today and super fun. These two 9's were equal in condition of the greens and would challenge anyone to find better greens right now. Held well struck shots and if you did not hit it right, they would release. Bunkers have plenty of sand and were ok for covid times. Masks required around the clubhouse but typical covid stuff going on. Never saw a cart girl and check in took a few minutes but overall I highly recommend this place. Worth the 70 bucks and easy to walk these two 9's. Stonehouse not so much and the $20 cart fee is a little steep.

Played with a group of the old softball guys Saturday morning in about 4.5 hours Creek to Stonehouse. We teed off an hour late due to the frost delay which are common for this time of the year. The staff was great and the practice area adequate. The golf carts are in mediocre shape but was told the fleet was being replaced the first of the year. The tee boxes were all in excellent shape with total coverage and level. The rough was just long enough to hold up off line shots but short enough to hit from if you found yourself in it. The fairways were all very good with GREEN GRASS which is lacking from so so many courses nowadays. There were a couple of tight lies on the Creek nine but still very good. The traps were all in need of a raking (looked as if they had not been touched in days) as our groups had to remove anything that found its way into one. The greens were the BEST I've played on in a very long time. They all were in excellent condition with few ball marks and held shots good and rolled very smooth and were really quick! The players club card they now offer is a great deal for those wishing to play here during the year. Definitely recommended even at the rack rate.

Drove to Temecula from OC Friday morning for an 8:30 tee time. Unfortunately the predicted overnight low of high thirties turned out to be mid twenties. You guessed it, frost delay of an hour. To my surprise I received a call from the course about an hour before my tee time to inform me of the frost delay. Now that is good customer service. All the staff were very friendly and organized for the start of play. The driving range is open along with a practice putting and chipping green.

I played the Oaks and Creek nines. The greens rolled medium/fast and smooth. Shots held other than the first few greens being a little firm due to the frost. The fairways had very good coverage overall. The rough was good. The length was just long enough to affect shots. The bunkers had good sand quality it just appeared they aren't raked regularly. A couple of my playing partners dropped outside the bunkers but I just smoothed a spot with my foot and dropped the ball in the bunker. From the drop they played very good. The tee boxes were in good condition and mostly level. Overall an enjoyable track. Personally I enjoy both the Oaks and Creek to the Stonehouse nine. Definitely worth the drive from OC.

10/14 using a teeoff deal time $36 walking. It had been over 20 years since last played here and in my mind the course was a lot flatter. Played Stonehouse/ Oaks with Stonehouse being the hillier and tighter of the two. SH has not yet been re-conditioned so fairways are more on the firm side but with ok cover and ok lies. Rough not overly long but sticky. Tees mostly level thin and hard in some areas. Sand is covid stomped even having been groomed.. Greens receptive medium medium fast and subtle no one in our group had much success outside of 10 feet and the 3 footers were no gimmies. Oaks recently came back into play after reconditioning and was in really good shape with better coverage overall. Greens were even healthier maybe a tad slower but really nice.
Friendly staff easy check in. No GPS mats on the range and large practice green 1/2 for putting and 1/2 for chipping. Cart fee would be $20 or $10 for 9. 27 holes when all open. Oaks is more open and has little elevation change. SH has hills more doglegs blind shots and is tighter with more trees. POP at about 4 1/2.

Out early at TC on 10/15. Played the Stonehouse/Oaks rotation in just under 3 hours as a threesome.

Course is in very nice condition. Greens are very good, quick and quite soft. Fairways and rough pretty good, every once in a while you'd find a bad area, but not too often. Tee boxes were very good.

For some reason they are completely ignoring the sand traps. I didn't get in any fortunately, but my playing partners just tried once and then took drops outside for the rest of the round. Really surprised the course doesn't at least have the crew rake the sand once a day, that would be the only negative for an otherwise really nice morning at the course.

I finally had a decent score on the Stonehouse 9. I still think that is my least favorite 9 holes in SoCal. I think the tee shot on #1 just immediately puts me in a bad mental state. It requires a giant slinging duck hook. I fade the ball. Today, I decided to just tee off with a 3w on this Par 5. Hit a nice stinger, maybe 10-20 feet inside the left tree line. Stays right on that line down the left edge, and I think I have finally hit a good shot on #1. Walk down the left edge of the fairway....nothing. Center of the fairway...nothing. My playing partners yell that there is a Titleist just short of the right bunker. That's me....a straight ball off the tee down the left edge ends up nearly in the bunker right of the fairway. I hate that tee shot.

Except for the #1 Stonehouse tee shot.....HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
