Morongo Golf Club at Tukwet Canyon offers two 18-hole championship courses, the Legends and the Champions. Nestled in the foothills of the San Gorgoncio and San Jacinto Mountains, both courses have a scenic landscape that offers stunning views. The Legends Course is the newer of the two but it provides just as challenging a game as the Champions, which is a PGA Tour favorite. The Legends twists and turns through the winding elevations, demanding accuracy throughout. Like its sister golf course, there are numerous steep-lipped bunkers treacherously placed along the greensides. The rough is also tall, thick, and unforgiving. The tricky par-3 fourth hole is played from the highest point on the property. From the tee, the canyon seems more intimidating but the wildly sloped green is where the challenge begins.

Tip Top Condition

The Legends is in great shape. They have done a good job over seeding this fall. The greens are running faster than normal and tough to judge speeds. Haven’t seen this track in such pristine condition in years. The fairways and rough are lush and not too soft. As usual the green side bunkers really need work to sift golf ball size stones out. It’s a really beautiful and challenging golf course.

This course has so much potential!

Found Legends to be a scenic but very tough layout.

The greens were in very good shape and very fast!

The condition of the rest of golf course was not great as you really couldn’t play out of the bunkers as they were rocks and dried mud and very little sand. The tee boxes were shabby as well and the fairways were a little patchy in places. So much potential!

It use to be a course in great condition. Now its a muni. You guys need to bring it back to its former glory. If I didnt know better I would guess conditions have deteriorated in anticipation of closing it for good.

Great shape. Better service.

The course was in great shape. Greens were slick and true. Refreshment cart came by at least 3 times from start to finish of the round, which was great because it was very hot today. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of customer service, it was much better than I recalled. Will be back soon.

Great course, not as challenging but still tough one.

I played this course in the afternoon after playing the Champions in the morning. Since the first round was very very tough, the Legend course felt much easier as there were not many bunkers as the other course and the bunkers were not as tall as well.

The wind did make the play very difficult as it was pretty strong from the first tee to the last putt.

Overall my group had a great experience.

Heard from the started that the course is planning on working on the bunkers to add more sand and take out all the rocks so it would be much better once it is completed.

What happened to this course?

I played the Legend. It use to be a pretty good course. Now, not so much. Sand is terrible. Fairways are bad. They really need to go with cart path only when the ground is wet. They also need a ranger to enforce it. The fairways are not clearly defined either. The rough is unhittable in many cases. Besides the thick grass your ball usually has ground in front of it and behind it. The greens for the most part was the only saving grace. They were good. What happened to this course???

Great layout poorly maintained.

My son and I played the Legends. He is a 14, and I am 20+. I was once an 11. Former member of Industry Hills for 15 years. The course layout is very interesting, fun, and challenging. But the course conditions are poor. Traps don't drain and have grass growing inside them. Very little sand in traps. Way too many soft spots in fairways and around greens. We had several perfect shots plug in center of fairways. Rough is too high for the average golfer. Good shots were lost in rough very close to the fairway. Greens are fun and fair. They were the best quality of this course. We have played the Champions course and found it to be basically the same as this criticism of Legends.

Great layout and greens

The course has a challenging layout and awesome bent grass greens. It was a cool and windy day but after a couple holes you descend in elevation and are protected from the winds. The rough is thick and you can easily lose your ball, so keep an eye on it. The cart barn personnel said they hadn’t mowed it recently due to the overseeding. The bunkers have compacted soil and rocks, so avoid. Some of the tee boxes aren’t very level and have depressions in them. The fairways are in great shape, overall. First time playing and very impressed with the layout and greens. Will definitely be back! We were a foursome and had singles and twosomes behind us. We let some groups play through and were trying not to hold anyone up, but balls going into the rough slowed us down.

handicaped/older golfers

I love both courses, but on either one, carts wont let you get close enough to the greens even with the cart set on handicap. I think you would get a lot more play from golfers who have leg problems if you had a cart setting that allowed a little closer access to the greens.

Best condition. In ages

Legends is in excellent condition. The fairways are too soft and wet but lush and green. Mens Club Wednesday so the pace of play was slow for a five hour round. Greens are in great shape. All in all it was a great day.

Awful slow play, course maintenance is shoddy at best. Sand traps full of rocks, lots of grass growing in sand traps.. No Marshall’s on course, pathetic…
