Didn't expect much for an executive course under $20, but this was worst than expected. Checked in about 40 minutes early for an 11:50 tee time and they were already running 30 minutes behind. The issue was carts. Not sure why that would be an issue. They should know how many carts are available before they advertise tee times with carts. The guy working in the shop was rude. I asked for a free bucket of range balls since we had to wait so long and he refused. Unreal. I bought a bucket anyways. The range was decent, but I was hitting balls over the back fence with a hybrid. No sign telling not to use woods. There is a tee box behind the netting and seems very unsafe. It was littered with range balls. Course was in bad shape and played EXTREMELY SLOW. Our cart needed to be pushed during the last two holes on a nine hole course. Ridiculous. The yardages were totally changed from what is on the scorecard. One par 4 was now a short par 3. Other holes had no yardage posted and had to guess. Greens were slow, as expected. Dude at the bar was cool. Don't come here.

This is a nice executive course, fun to play and work on shots (fairways are narrow and greens on the small side). My son in I do the hot deal have enjoyed it both times we’ve played there.

Poor course layout, grass outside of the green in poor shape or nonexistent, 45+ min wait for a cart, carts in poor condition and did not see them being disinfected between use, very slow pace of play waiting on others ahead.

It sucks no Fairways are cut down properly lot of dirt

For the money, this course is wonderful. Superb, friendly staff. Conveniently located practice range with a "bucket of ball" price that cannot be surpassed. Brooks Bar available for food and drinks. Practice putting and chipping greens right next to driving range. And the pro (Mike) ensures the range balls and practice greens are first-rate. As for the course, fairways in good shape, greens too. Overall, a fantastic place to practice one's game. Highly recommended.

This was a fun course especially if you're looking to get a quick round in! If you're a beginner, I definitely recommend this course to you. Little to no hazards, greens aren't tricky at all, and really encourages you to sharpen your short game. Fast pace play even for walking the course. My only con of the course is watch for other balls flying your way as the holes are crammed. Also, the fairways are very hard and sometimes rocky. But, great value for your money and will play again soon!

The course is okay the rough is ROUGH the greens okay some spots where it’s over watered one thing that I don’t really care about is after they mow the course its noticeably left all over the roughs. It’s a fun beginner course if your looking for something quick. Only other thing is when I’ve booked tee times rite when they open at 6 the gates aren’t open yet usually don’t get started till 15 after but no big deal cause no one is usually there that early

I have always experienced top notch staff; from the starters to the greens keepers. I teed off at 0650 and there was only one other person on the course - loved it! Although I had some COVID rust, I enjoyed my round. Definitely a course where you can hone in your short game. FYI, the range doesn't open until 0800 on Tuesdays because of maintenance. My only two concerns have to do with players and not the course management team; (1) I found myself repairing other people's divots (I have seen staff repair divots in the past so I know they try to keep up) and (2) wished that people could pick up after themselves (I've also seen staff pickup trash and bottles so I know they're trying here too).

I really enjoy this course for a quick round before work.

The staff are great people with a very warm experience.

What a waste of money! The course should be shut down! Carts with holes in the seats and wheels ready to fall off. If you must go to hit balls just use the driving range and putting greens. Everything else is total garbage!

In my opinion this is the worst golf course in the Inland Empire. Horrible carts, horrible greens & overpriced for how unmanaged this course is. Can’t believe they charge 17$ on the weekends for this place. Should be 5$ a round.

cart was in poor shape, had to push it up the hill from the tunnel. Low electrical charge. Course is ok. A lot of bare spaces/dirt, poor markings for holes, too many single players jumping through---rude.
