General Old Golf Course

This course is in the best condition of most courses in the area. Great track, I love this course.

It was eye opening to go to the dining area and see several heavily decorated and uniformed military personnel in the room looking elegant and serious and it was a contrast for me to be in shorts and a baseball cap and I felt inadequate and self conscious among these men and, this course being adjacent to the national cemetery I knew that they were either going or coming from a burial service and it put the day in a proper context. General Old GC is more than just golf. The course is muscular and manly and a great test with good conditions and excellent practice areas. While you play you hear the staccato sounds coming from the gun range and there were flyovers by planes from March AFB and it was all thrilling but then every now and then you heard a different set of gun shots that were more rhythmic and it was unmistakable that these were salutes during a service. Golf has a certain spirituality for some including me and adding these other elements was surreal and I hope that in the few rounds remaining for this course as it ends its long history, players will take in more than just the golf game. Sometimes it's bigger than that and here next to those grounds where men and women rest forever after giving everything for us, take a moment and reflect. It could be a very profound round of golf.

Great course layout with some challenging holes and some fairly easy holes. The staff in the clubhouse were very helpful and nice (just wish their beer was a little colder ). Overall a great course for me and my son to play at.

I love this course. There is much about this course for an occasional golfer to love. Wide fairways, not a lot of water, really well maintained sand traps, and much more. I've been teaching my wife the game and this is the first 18 hole course I'll take her to. There are courses closer to home, but I'll drive the extra miles to come here. For those who are current or former military, the course is a former base course and is located next to the Riverside National Cemetery and near March AFB. It is always inspirational to hear the 21 gun salutes for those who served and then see the planes taking off flown by those who serve.

greens and fairways are great.alot of dirt lies off the fairways,but you're not suppose to be out there anyway.bunkers can use some more sand,but a good course overall.

When I booked our tee time I wasn't sure what to expect. $31 for 18 in Riverside. It turned out that the course was in great condition, for anytime of the year, but especially in August. The greens were all in great shape. Then the best part, we played in under four hours, and never had to wait, nor did we ever see any group behind us. All in all this was a great experience and I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking for a good value on a very well maintained course. The jets taking off from the nearby air base were way cool too. Highly recommended!!!

Great day of golf. Course well kept. Pace fairly good. Staff friendly and efficient. Bunker sand was somewhat hard packed.

Good round of golf with the family. Afternoon tee time. Kind of on the hot side but playable. Most fairways are really nice. Green are nicely kept up. Another plus!

This course is always in great shape! Greens are amongst the best in the I.E. Pretty good practice area, and very helpful staff!

Just want to say the course remains in good shape and even on a Saturday afternoon the pace of play was OK. The greens are great, for Poana. Good place to play in the wind.

Had a good round of golf was a great day for golf played the entire round in 3hours and 30 minutes by myself was waved through by three groups and it seemed that the other golfers on this course on the day i played did"nt seem open to having me join them so i just went about my golfing way and had a solo round beating my previous round by 1 stroke not a bad thing less distraction i guess so ya i will book here again, the course seemed in good shape for the most part....

Nice course layout; and always refreshing not to have any houses lining the fairways. The greens roll smooth and are very soft. The fairways are a bit inconsistent, having sporadic bumpy patches of irregular grass... but hey! for $20, playing preferred lies is one way enjoy it.

The course was in very good condition especially considering the ongoing drought. Traps are more dirt than sand - fairly typical of this price point course. I have a bad knee so the fact the course is relatively flat is a plus for me. Fairways are tight enough to make the course challenging in the absence of down hill, side hill lies. The breeze kicks up in the afternoon also making things a bit more interesting. If you are a very good golfer, head to the blue tees - you won't be disappointed. My only real complaint is that we had a 5 some in front of us that was rather slow. We played the front nine in about 2 hours but the back took 3 hours when they apparently got tired or started playing for money - who knows?????

The best feature of this course is that there greens are always excellent. They had punched the fairways and they came back very well. Much better than our last round

Had a good time playing. Nice greens and fairways. For the price, very pleased

Been playing this course for years since I live very close. Usually not a bad place to play and the fairways and greens are in good shape. Last time I played the greens had been aerated quite recently and also were very overgrown. I understand this is a must for any golf course but there was no warning or discount for aerated greens. Made it impossible to make a decent putt.

Easter Sunrise. Perfect on hole 4

Course was a little bottle-necked, but still had fun and enjoyed the round. Old General is a challenging course, but definitely could use some attention on the maintenance side.

Relaxed country atmosphere and great paced course! Friendly staff and good food!

I left a job site in Perris at 2:30 and figured I could squeeze in a quick 18. There are some amazing courses in the IE, so I figured I couldn't go wrong here. The pace of play was awful, the fairways were dismal, and the greens were spongy. BUT, I had some fun. This course plays much shorter than the 6700 yards, made a few birdies and an eagle. It's decent for beginners and definitely cheap.
