The Golf Club of California
About
Situated just outside of Temecula, the Golf Club of California enjoys a scenic landscape provided by the rolling hills north of San Diego. The terrain is ideal for a round of golf, offering verdant acres of countryside blanketed with mature oaks, sycamores, and towering eucalyptus trees and accented with redtop grasses, which border the carefully manicured fairways and greens. Although there is an abundance of trees, the course still has many wide-open areas. The pristine white sand bunkers and colorful wildflowers are a beautiful contrast to the lush green of the course. The layout is not particularly long, but golfers should be prepared for a challenging round of target golf. The course features narrows fairways, plenty of elevation changes, and tricky greens that require an accurate approach. There are also a few meandering creeks that come into play.

Great Layout
This is a challenging layout with lots of elevation changes, elevated greens and shots over creeks. The Golf shop and starter were very friendly.
Thank you for your great feedback, MarkHowl2! We're glad you enjoyed your round. Please join us again soon, and thanks for choosing The Golf Club of California!
Don’t play on Monday mornings
Started off great! The starter was nice and said it’s empty enjoy. Then came the back nine... I was stuck behind an 8-10 some. No joke. Called the clubhouse on the 18th when I had finally had it. They did play quick but I had no idea when I could hit... and I was being pushed by the group behind me. The clubhouse argued with me that only 4 were playing. That is a lie! Then he said it’s normal on Monday mornings. No apology no offer for a discount to come back... I put two in the water with 10 guys and 9 golf carts around the green yelling for me to come up. I love this course but no course I don’t care that these guys are members should allow this! Posted a bad photo below.
Simple but nice layout
Liked the layout of the course. Nothing too ridiculous and difficult but still fun to play.

We're so glad to see you enjoyed your last round with us, bmmitchell! We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Amazing course conditions
Played oaks and stone house. At 45$ for a weekday round this course is a steal. Best greens and fairway conditions I’ve seen in San Diego this time of year. 20$ for carts is excessive however. Scratch golfers/low handicappers may find the course layout lacking challenges and difficulty but doesn’t mean I necessarily think the course is easy. Oaks is old school park style golf , stone house much more challenging and visually impressive.

favorite
Great course. Group in front must have been playing for $100 a putt because they took forever on the greens. But the course is very nice, the weather was a bit warm, but it's July. Playing partner dropped his phone somewhere on the course and a worker went out looking for it and found it. So his dad was made. Will be back again.
butler2943, thank you for your 4-star review and feedback! We're glad to hear you were still able to enjoy the day with us despite some slow play on the course, and we hope to see you again very soon for another great golf experience. Thanks for choosing The Golf Club of California.
Difficult Layout, Fairways Need Work, Greens in Good Conditions
First time playing here in about 7 years, layout is tricky, the last time I played the course was in much better condition. Fairways need help, too many bare and burnt out spots. Greens 3-18 rolled very nicely, sand bunkers are hard packed, pace of play was extremely slow 5 hours. If you want a challenging layout with less than good conditions, this is the place for you, if they made the conditions better, this would be a great golf course.

First time golfing here and loved it. Fairways and greens are well maintained. The course layout was fun and challenging, can’t be aggressive here. Quite a few dog legs which made it fun, not to mention the par 3 with the bunker in the center of the green. Definitely will be back whenever I’m in town.

Great Hidden Gem
Played in the afternoon as a twosome. Challenging course with great views and lay-out. Helps to keep the ball in play as if you go in the bushes, you go in the bushes !! Fairways and greens played great and really enjoyed the distance you drive from green to next tee box as i't's the jungle cruise. Friendly staff to top it off. Will play here again fro sure.

Good course when they keep it up.
This course is a great little track when they keep it up.
Played very nicely last two times and it looks like they are making an effort as it shows. The greens are starting to roll better, fairways are playable,very few bare spots.
