I played in their "Day after Thanksgiving" 7am shotgun ordeal. What a cluster****!! We didn't get done until 1pm, come on now, six hours for a shotgun start?? They definately oversold it. How can you be so greedy and so cheap at the same time? The damm G.M. has cut things back so much, he's even eliminated the water coolers that used to be on the course. I won't even think about playing here if it's hot. Empire Lakes, Oak Quarry and Trilogy have G.M's that care about the paying public, not this one.

Played Sierra on 12/2/07 on a $49 special and a late morning tee time. It was a perfect day for golf; clear skies, no wind, but a bit on the chilly side. Played the first 4 holes at 2 under and it was down hill from there. The holes started backing up and continued that way for the rest of the round. I like to play fast and because of slow play, stupidly let a potentially best round ever slip away. Unfortunately the marshall was no where to be found until the 18th hole which was probably close to quiting time as darkness was starting to set in. Customer service at this course is not what I remember it to be the last time I played here which was over a year ago. As mentioned in some previous reviews there are other options in the area in the same price range, but with better customer service. I guess the positive side to all this is that I didn't have to pay the regular rate for the abuse!

I wish I could have had the opportunity to review Sierra Lakes as far as the quality of the golf course. I didn’t get that far. I was in possession of a free round for four at Sierra Lakes as I had won one in a raffle in a tournament held at this Fontana course. The certificate stipulated that it was not good on holidays or weekends. When I called and made my tee time a few days prior, I specifically asked the person answering if my free round was applicable on Wednesday the day before Thanksgiving. He gave me a definitive yes and took my credit card number and tee time. I invited a few friends to get up early and join me there at 7:21 AM. They live in the Alhambra area. They took time off of work and also had made arrangements for a babysitter so they had the liberty to take advantage of a free round.

Guess what happened? When I got there and presented the certificate, the desk person said it was holiday rates and the certificate didn’t apply. When I mentioned what the person had said on the phone, they said they were sorry but they couldn’t honor it that day. I appealed to the assistant manager nearby and he offered no solution, claiming the GM had chewed him out before, and he would let us on for $65.00. I told him I was not going to have my friends come here expecting a free round and wind up paying $65.00 to play in a dense fog. Heavy wind was also expected that day. He was oblivious. Let me tell you the difference between a course like Sierra Lakes and courses like Oak Quarry and Goose Creek.

First of all, the latter two courses are higher end courses to begin with. In most instances, they are less expensive and they bend over backward for their clients. I called both courses and they were both booked solid. I told them my situation and although they were really overbooked, they both offered to squeeze my foursome in at a lesser rate than Sierra Lakes. I took the Oak Quarry offer and we were put on immediately after getting the usual ride from the parking lot. The pace was excellent and it was a great day. That is why customers come back. I really don’t believe that honoring the certificate at Sierra Lakes would have been much of a stretch considering the responsibility rested with their employee. They should have honored it gladly. It is interesting to note that neither of the more generous courses charged holiday rates on that day. It was pure and simply greed on Sierra Lakes part. I will never, ever pay for another round at Sierra Lakes. Don’t go there for the customer service.

played sierra lakes for the first time today. was impressed as i drove up, nice clubhouse and most of the course was in great condition, nice lush fairways but fairly low cut rough. greens, however were in terrible condition with so many unrepaired ball marks. had a hard time putting on many of the greens due to this. what killed the round though was the pace of play. teed off at 830, didn't get done until 130. had to wait on every shot and it just got irritating after a while. unforunate, because this was a great track with a decent layout that is really not too hard and fun to play. they need to get something done about the slow pace.

Always a pleasure to play here. Course is always in really good shape, and a very fun layout that isn't to tuff, or easy for that matter, and the staff is very nice.

As I have mentioned before, I live on the course but do not work here. I held my annual tournament here on 10/27 with a 8am shotgun for 80 players. It couldn't have been any better. SL tournament director Josh was there in the dark getting everything ready, so our event would be smooth and easy. The course is in great shape....good job Hector. Even with the public going ahead of us, it was a 4.5 hour round. Afterwards, banquet manager Guillermo provided great food and drinks to all. It's no wonder that so many groups bring their events here, this entire staff is commited to providing great service.

Course is in beautiful shape, greens are nice, fairways are perfect...probably my favorite course to play. I really like that there is some room off the tee on most holes and you don't loose a box of balls everytime you play. Restaurant is great, food is excellant and staff is friendly.

This seems to be pick on Sierra Lakes week, read below posts. Played 9/26,8 am tee time, got off on time, very crowded, at first tee at least 8 carts waiting to tee off, appeared to me I was at LAX waiting to take off, havent been here since Costco went in, maybe lining up is now a local tradition. Noisy, rude folks as those teeing off seemed to ignore the yakking. They stopped when we got on the tee, we advised them in a laughing way we would stand there all day, we are retired, no place to go. With that said we used to play here once or twice a month, then price went up, service went down,seems to go with sales of houses, and the some of the locals were how should I put it,, OK,, they were nuts. No class. Today we noticed cut off jeans, levies, all sorts of stuff. This used to be a classy place, not anymore from what we saw. Then the groups in front of us joined up and created a 6 some, now I could care less as long as they kept up,but no,,,they were 2 holes behind when the marshall showed up, Yup,, we called it in, and the group behind us also called it in. The greens have matured and are fun even though we fixed maybe 10 ballmarks a green till we tired of it..Played with a regular, good guy,, said they have a lot of non golfing tournys maybe one a week, all they do is tear up the place. I think its the regulars that dont take care of the place. Hummm,, paper towels in the urnial,paper towels all over the floor, it was apparent this isnt the same place we used to enjoy. We dont think we will be back. We also think they dont give a crap if we come back. Food and drink area is very nice. Golf course is fun and in geat shape to bad mgmt seems to not give a da** about customer satisfaction. It also seems that kids run the place and maybe that explains things.

Played today 9/27 will not play again over 5 hours. They take your money and put you out started 20 mins later than t time. Poor starter at the t box is over welmed with some 20 people at a time. Every time you hit it so was backup every you had to wait. $carts waiting at the t boxes. We where hit into twice in just 2 holes. NO MARSHALL, NO DRINKING WATER, NO CART GIRL( it just sucked) . But they give you a free hot dog. IT was worse time playing a course in probably 6 months. No one fixes their ball marks. The staff doesnt do anything with the rude people that are playing this course. Its a shame because it can be a fun course to play
