California Oaks Golf Course

My wife, and I recently moved to

Murrieta, and want to try all the local courses. This one was a fail, and too bad too. The layout is good, but it hasn’t been kept up well at all.

The course needs a huge amount of work, and a better hydration plan. It was brown from being burned, but sopping wet at the same time.

A ball hitting the green simply plugged 2/3 of the way into the ground. No release, difficult to judge the speed of putts because of the amount of water, and hadn’t been rolled either so they were lumpy.

All in all I was displeased with the quality of the course, and probably won’t return. However, the price was pretty low, and a novice golfer probably wouldn’t notice some of the issues.

Course was nice and green, bit challenging with all the blind spots.

I’ve been golfing for 35 years now, and this course is without a doubt the worse course I’ve ever played. They should have paid me to play it. The layout is horrible. The tee boxes are an absolute disgrace and the greens are so over watered that my ball plugged on every approach shot onto the green. Live and learn I guess..

Lots of of fun especially for the locals friendly staff and pretty relaxing time the courses can be a bit narrow sometimes makes it a bit challenging playing from pro tee but a lot of fun

great day for a round of golf. early morning, to beat the heat. narrow. beautiful. a little muddy in some areas, but overall a great round. friendly staff.

Coming from the Palm Springs area this is a great change of pace as far as the weather is concerned. We loved the layout and the woodsy atmosphere and the overall friendliness of the staff was excellent. The greens were beautiful but soaking wet. It felt like walking on a wet sponge. My socks were soaking wet. We would love to play this course again but I will bring a different pair of cleats.

In addition to course being poorly kept, they charge an additional $3 Moore to the $35 you agreed on Golf Now.

I will never play there again, not only because of the money, but it just doesn’t feel right.

The staff member/starter/check in guy was terrific and friendly. The course could use some work thought. But overall we all have a wonderful experience.

If you are having a rough golf patch, this is the right course to get off that funk. Short course and golfer friendly. A lot of par 4s are only like 280-325 yards long. I typically golf in the low 90s. I got in the 80s easily. I shot an 85. Par 3s are very reachable too. No 180+ yard par 3s. Par 5s are round savers. Easy to reach in 3 and if you can hit it long, you can get on in two with room to spare. If you usually need a 3 wood to get on the green in two, you’ll need a 5 or 7 in some Par 5s. Fun course. Great for beginners. Greens are well manicured.

Only down Side to this course is they didn’t have golf carts ready so we had to wait an hour after our tee time to tee off. Don’t thinks that’s a normal thing though. Great course to play and great price. Only giving it a 3 star because it felt like an executive course, fairways were a little rough and the golf cart situation.

The fairways where in good shape,the greens were in the best shape I've seen had a lot of fun, there is a par 3 with a pond as the hazard very exciting .

Booked a t time and showed up to chaos. No system to check people in other than one guy standing behind a card table with a very long line. Found out they way overbooked and had no carts and no idea when they would have any available. Punted and went down the road to play another course. Very poor run operation.

It took 2.5 hours to play front nine due to overcrowding of the course. Walking players were allowed in between scheduled tee times with players with cart.

Played here 6/30/2020, and a huge difference than last time. Greens are in great shape, fairways are decent, and tee boxes are hit or miss. Definitely worth the price. Very short par 70 course, but overall a great round of golf and would definitely okay again!
