The Links at Summerly borders Lake Elsinore, southern California's largest natural lake. The Ortega Mountains and the Cleveland Natural Forest are also the golf course's neighbors. Although it feels nicely secluded, the Links are conveniently just minutes from Temecula. The design tumbles across a rolling terrain that is accented with 3 miles of Scottish-style burns. The natural mounding was deftly incorporated throughout the golf course. The rugged landscape, reminiscent of courses in the British Isles, gives it the look and feel of a traditional links layout. It is a formidable test that features heavily undulated fairways and an abundance of kidney-shaped bunkers. Although there are some tricky holes, each one was designed to offer several different playing strategies. Thought and imagination are required, but you will also have to use every club in your back to navigate the twists and turns of the Links at Summerly.

Dry

There's hardly any grass left and the dry weeds and dirt intensify the heat. The course sits in a bowl which makes it hot to begin with, but the course conditions made the heat intense. It was about 90 degrees the day I played, but the conditions made it at least 10 degrees hotter on the course. In the winter, it's a really fun course, but I'm done playing there for the summer.

Great value

Fun track at excellent value. Greens are in premiere condition and roll true. Fairways are dormant and lies are tight and challenging. Course layout is awesome, second to none. Excellent place to play and practice if you want to save some bucks.

An absolute dump

Save your money, don't okay here. There are no fairways, greens are mowed like fairways and you'll lose a bunch of balls because of the course conditions.

I do get the reviews that say this place has potential and it does but it's going to have to take a complete overhaul.

There are so many great courses around, don't waste your time here.

Lowest price around

Had a great! We knew what to expect. Lowest price around, tee boxes are below par, fairways are mostly dirt or dry grass. We bought artifical grass pads to hit from instead of the fairways. The greens are in great condition but a lttle slow. Play was very good with little or no bottle necks. All in for the price it was worth it.

We will play it again.

Needs fairways

I think it's a shame that this course is in such terrible shape, the lay would be awesome. It's time for new ownership and a renovation of the fairways, first time plying a course without fairways and hidden streams and barrancas to cross on most holes, you need to see the fairways, I was dissapointed.

Course Conditions Are Awful

The fairways are bare dirt in the majority of the holes. For the cost of greens fee you would expect better course conditions. Will be playing again.

What a deal

I play here often. Staff and cart girl are all friendly. Tee boxes are in good shape. Fairways need work on the par 4’s and 5’s lot of dirt patches. Greens are pristine rolling fast and true. Bunkers are looking much better than last month. Fun links style course that constantly presents new challenges.

Clearly letting it go

No words. Ownership has clearly decided to let this course go. Sad because the neighborhood is new. Could be so profitable if they put some effort. 90% dirt and overgrowth. Greens were decent but that is it.
