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.

Good TIme

Paired up with Husband and wife, both good players...we played around 11 and had a smooth less then 4 hour round....Course in good shape, always a joy to play the Legends side as the back nine is easy compared to the Champion back nine which can ruin your day if your a 15 or over.....not your everyday public course, well worth playing if just for the different holes.

Golf course in decline

I have played here many times over the last 10 years but this is the worst shape I have seen this course in over that period. This course has a nice layout but The lack of maintenance is quite sad

We will be back

Very nice course with some great holes. It will be fun to play a 2nd time to have a bit more course knowledge. For the price and drive for me it was well worth it. The range, pitching and putting warm up areas were in great condition. Lots of fun.

Has potential

Played the Legends 18 this weekend and have seen it in better shape. Not sure if it’s the time of year but fairways were pot holed with rodents in many places. A few pellet guns given to the band nembers should solve that issue. Greens were true, enjoy playing here. Would encourage investment in ball washers and coolers on carts. Will be back.

Great option for reasonable price

I used to live in SoCal but moved to New Hampshire in 2000. Out here visiting family and booked this course with my dad. Had a 10:20 tee time and luckily dodged a large tournament of real estate folks but they played on the Champions course. They got us out at 10:00 and paired us up with a single. The front side seemed to require very accurate tee shots. The back nine was much more forgiving. All holes required a demanding second shot as you normally had a bunker with a severe slope guarding the green. The layout was intriguing and only one hole was a slight disappointment due to it being a blind second shot but overall was very impressed with the course. The only other fault was the green speeds were somewhat inconsistent but most courses are like that.

Great course but...

Went out at 0730 with a member of the Men's Club and a couple of his friends. It was quite chilly and got really cold when the wind kicked up. Overall the course is still pretty good but there are some GLARING problems that you should know about. First the greens are NOT recovered from being punched. They're very slow and were quite moist so the balls gathered a lot of sand while rolling. Lots of putts left short all day.

Second, the bunkers are void of ANY sand. Good luck trying to find any consistency that you can play with. And the stones! They're 10% stones in the bunkers.

Last is they still have that weed infestation on the greens. It's not as bad as it has been but certainly the greens need some serious help. And they still can't trust you to write your name on the cart contract. But the layout, esp on Legends, is a good one. Still a good course. If they fixed their greens and bunkers then they would be on a par with some greats like Oak Quarry or Goose Creek. Then they could charge twice as much and we'd gladly pay it.

Tough course

Lots of blind shots but the GPS device was great to show the layout. Greens are at average condition.

Two good courses.

I just wish we would see the cart girl before hole 15 and she had more than just 1 tuna sandwich. Especially since the course does not go past the clubhouse and they don’t use the snack stand at Hole 10.
