Junior National Golf Club
About
Junior National Golf Club (formerly known as Tres Rios Golf Course at Estrella Mountain Park and Estrella Mountain Golf Course) is rich with dense forestry including eucalyptus, mesquite, and pine trees as well as cottonwoods. The course has a parkland-style layout with rolling fairways lined with trees and undulating greens that are medium-sized and fast. To add more challenge to the golf course, water hazards and bunkers come into play on several holes. The par-4 seventh hole is considered the most difficult driving hole on the course. There are stately trees off the tee and the second shot is to a narrow sloping green. Junior National Golf Club features multiple tee boxes for a variety of different golfing options.

Wet Play
Sprinklers spraying when I'm trying to play. Greens were aerated and I wasn't told that the course was being repaired.
Horrible condition
Course is in really bad shape. They should be more honest to the public. Post pictures of the current course conditions. Dry fairways, greens and tee boxes. Debris everywhere. Edges untrimmed etc.. I've been coming here for years and the course has always had its ups and downs but, this by far is the lowest I've seen it, enough to make me never return
wow
i know the course is only playing for $14, but i can’t believe they let ANYONE play with the course in as bad condition as it is. greens are punched oit and tee boxes are horrible. didn’t make it passed 4 holes
Great course layout when kept up.
Today the course was in horrible condition. The tee boxes are all dead grass or dirt. The fairways are dead or dying. Hole #2 has a water leak.
Dried out
Aerification delayed, course probably hadn't been watered in 2 weeks, drives would roll forever (good) but greens wouldn't make a ball mark even if you dropped a ball from an airplane, but given the price, ok I guess.
Poor Greens and Tee box
Majority of tee boxes in which you want to use an iron it is difficult to find grass to hit off of. A lot of the Greens are bumpy and bald. If you just want to get out and play the price is good But the course is a little rough around the edges.
Too neglected
Poor management, in the past I have been asked if I paid or if I have checked in at the club house, very disrespectful woman who I tought she was just an employee but recently I noticed she is the manager. Very worry about customers paying than worry about the course condition.
Yesterday the tee box was very dirty and noticeably neglected with long grass and trash overflowing at 11am, probably trash from the day before, most of the golf ball cleaners are broken.
Tres Rios
They have let the course go since the winter visitors
have left. the course needs some water on it badly .
Winter Rates Conditions Terrible
Fairway hard, dried out and generally in poor condition. Tee boxes mostly dirt. Greens fair to good. Traps fair to good. Don't know what else to say about this course other than that the management just doesn't take care of this course as they should.
Not worth the $33.00 right now
In between winter and summer grass, fairways are dead grass, greens are bare and painted
Worst condition in years
I have to say this course is in the worst condition of the Eny course I’ve ever played. During this time of year the winter rye in the summer Bermuda should mix to make a great playing atmosphere. The pro shop said they can courses in perfect condition. Absolutely ridiculous! After 18 holes your back is strained from all the bumps in couches throughout the fairway and rough. The green had absolutely no grass and your ball balance left and right making it impossible to score. At one point we had 15 people waiting on hole number four. The pro shop staff thought it it was funny when we expressed our concerns. Save your money and don’t make the mistake we made. Even the tea boxes had no grass we found ourselves breaking T after T trying tee up the ball. My friends and I will never return.
Great views...not so great golf
Course has great potential if greens, tee boxes and fairways were in better shape.
mixed message
Played the course very often for several years in the past and stopped because it was just a dust bowl with limited care. Saw the 4 star rating and had to try it again. Have to admit the fairways were is much better condition than in the past. The greens are another story. I would not be surprised to find that someone had painted the dirt green. You could not stop an approach and putting was an adventure.
On the other hand, it was a bargain just to get a round of practice in ball striking.
