Situated amongst the foothills of the San Gorgonio and San Jacinto Mountains, Morongo Golf Club at Tukwet Canyon boasts 36 holes of scenic championship golf. The two courses, the Champions and the Legends, are some of the area's most popular. The older Champions Course is host to the PGA Tour Q-School and it is a Nationwide Tour Qualifier. It is such a popular tournament location that it is known as the "home of the Southern California PGA." The Champions is a challenging but playable layout with tight fairways and numerous steep-lipped bunkers strategically placed throughout. There is also thick, treacherous rough that will swallow any errant shots. Also included in your tee time is unlimited use of the practice facilities, which include an all-grass driving range as well as chipping and putting greens.

If you’re looking for a review to avoid wasting money, here you go.

This course is unplayable. The course itself is completely trashed and is left un managed.

The proshop is unresponsive and could care less if you enjoy your time. Clearly they are letting the course fail to eventually build homes and it’s very sad for such a good layout. The pace of play was awful. Took us more than 5 hours to complete a round. The bunkers were almost as hard as the cart paths. Huge bald spots in the middle of the fairways.

The owner of this course has nerve to even charge for it. The bar at the pro shop closes at 4 to better demonstrate how much the golfers matter.

Cold and Windy

I played with my Girl and it was cold and windy. Should have stayed home. 50mph winds moved putts on the greens and made drives balloon and travel on 50 yards in front of me when I normally hit it 250. It was a struggle but the course was in good shape and the pace of play was good. Hate that they send singles out who always want to jump in front of you and end up making you wait.

Windy and cold

Play the morongo golf course and it was very windy and cold. The greens were fast the fairways were firm but the wind was howling at 30 and 40 and 50 mph balls were ballooning and going straight in the air 100 yards then falling right back down darn near at your own feet with a driver. Plus we're being blown off line even though they're only two and three feet. Otherwise this is a great course with two tracks with lots of danger lots of bunkers very little water in play. The restaurant was not open which was a bummer. With the staff and the starters were very nice and accommodating. I'm a 14 handicap and I managed to keep it under 90 in very tough conditions.

Not what it used to be

Greens were in good shape, a little slow but it was the afternoon. The pace of play was the issue. No rangers or marshalls were monitoring the course. Had a single join our 3some at the turn and he said he had called the pro shop to send someone out and he never saw anyone. There was apar 3 that had a group on the green and two groups waiting to tee off. Was like that all day.

Bunkers need sand.

Bunkers are rock hard mud. Stay out of them and you will be fine otherwise take a double bogey and move on.

What happen?

Greens and fairways were ok. I could not believe how poorly the bunkers were . There were weeds found in various bunkers throughout the legends course.

I take pride in recognizing this course as home and look forward in playing here. Price is normally not an issue because I believe you get what you pay for, but this course resembled something completely different.

Although I would still recommend this course and will continue to play there, I’m a little disappointed.

The demise of a past SCGA course

This is a difficult course made more difficult by lack of maintenance, especially the sand traps. This course has a lot of sand traps and they are mostly a combination of a small amount of sand with rocks and dirt mixed. Hopefully management will read this review and take steps to remedy this.

DO NOT PLAY THIS COURSE!

Where to start. 5 hour, 55 minute round? Bunkers that are equivalent to pavement? I lost 3 balls in the middle of the fairway (the course was so wet, you would think Lake Mead was full!). They don't need to water the course for a month. It needs to dry out. It was simply unplayable. Extremely disappointing because I've played this course 10-12 times, and it was always at least somewhat playable. Also, the clubhouse closed at 4pm! Arrived at 4:10pm from a 10:16am tee time. Everything was locked up. Couldn't go to the bathroom before getting into the car?! Come on.

Poor course conditions

This is my 2nd time playing the Champions Course in a month or so, and I was hoping that my initial impressions were a bit harsh, but they were not: the course is in pretty bad shape. Torn-up and uneven tee boxes, extremely spotty fairways and rough (including large patches all over the course that are bare dirt, as well as areas that were not mowed for a long time and balls got lost only feet off the fairway), spotty and poorly maintained greens (although the greens were relatively good compared to the rest of the course). The entire place seems to be losing care from the owners. It has a neglected feel that I suspect was not the case before. Now, all this said, it is the end of a very hot summer in California and many courses are suffering. However, this one is particularly affected and I don't see the efforts to maintain the course in anywhere near the condition that one would expect. Staff was so-so, relatively indifferent acting, but helpful with water and ice.
