Disappointed

Way too crowded with no control. Very slow pace of play. Wait at every hole and at every shot.

Great day of golf

This is a fun links style course. The front was great. The back they had just punched the tee boxes and hadn’t cleared them off. This made it had to maintain a solid stance and you grew an inch by the time you walked off the boxes due to the mud. Still a great day of golf

We enjoyed.

Unique point of this course is bunker. There are unexpected bunkers in the fare way. The rough around the bunker is intentionally make difficult. Interesting

Saturday stroll

Course is in good shape. Greens are very difficult to read. Conservative and straight is the best way to play RC. If you try to overpower this course you may find yourself spending a lot of time in the cactus.

Fantastic course that exceeded expectations

This might be the best affordable course in Southern California. If I didn't have to sit in an hour of traffic each way to get there I'd play it all the time. It's a unique layout with challenging greens, and the whole place is in great condition.

Pace of play was a little slow but I don't think it was the fault of the course. Just a slow group somewhere ahead and little waits on each hole added up.

Love this course

It's a fair golf course even for a 76 year old man. I love this course. Yes there are a few obstacles but if you Hit it fairly straight, you'll avoid them. I have a 13 handicap and shot 78 which is very good for me. I'd recommend this course to everyone. It is very well kept and the greens are great. Great deal.

Cart policy bad

This is the second time I have had to pay extra as a single rider both times I have been sent out without any other riders in the group. I understand if they were sending out multiple carts why I would have to pay extra but kind of messed up when I am the only one riding.
