Yucaipa Valley Golf Club

The prominent feature of this course is the undulating greens (which are in great condition). It is a definite challenge for the flat stick. Expect more 3 putts. Compared to other courses in the area this one is in good condition and better than most. They are making an effort to groom the sand traps, however, some are thin and some are flush with sand. It's hard to judge whether your club will hit hardpan with a typical sand shot, so swing softer and take a shallow divot of sand if you find yourself in a bunker. Also, be aware that most greens have a definite side to stay away from with steep slopes that will send an errant shot into trouble.

Waited over an hour for a golf cart. Course poorly managed morning play and allowed a significant amount of single riders out in the morning and therefore ran out of carts at 1pm. I had a 120pm tee time and didn’t go off till after 2:45pm. Course also had no Marshall and the round took 6 hours.

You would think there would have been a comp or some

Reimbursement but there was nothing. Second time I’ve been here and ran into similar issues.

Course looked great. Best I’ve seen it look in years.

enjoy playing yucaipa golf course it has been improving and was in great shape the greens had recently been punched and sanded so couple more weeks and will be really nice...

I have played this course for 20 years, and this is the best shape I have ever seen and played it!!!My congrats to the head ground keeper!!!

This course was well worth the $34 spent. great grass. greens were good. pace of play could’ve been a little better but can’t complain because the course was great.

The next group was pretty close to us but they did not mind waiting. Overall good experience.

Great course and very scenic. A tad slow and the greens were heavily sanded. When it’s in shape it should be great.

Course was aerated day before no notification on golfnow, just checked golfnow for this weekend still no alert. Not sure whose responsible but unfortunate

The front 9 was closed due to aerification, play the back 9 twice. Course over booked, 5 hours to play 18. Booked through Tee off, would not have booked if I had known the condition.

Course is in great shape. And at $64 dollars on the weekend is a great deal. Other course in the area are around $89 to $100.... and it takes around 5 hours a round.. so, Yucaipa is your best bet for a fair priced round and a very nice course to play on. Me and my friends will definitely be back again. Thank you!

Played Yucaipa Golf Club a few times in the past month.

My family and friends have been playing this course for the last 15 years. We have seen it at its best and its worst. We’ve seen multiple management changes over the past few years and I am here to tell ya, it’s headed in the right direction. We used to play here in 2-3 charity tournaments each year. Then the course was absolute pile of turds and the price was higher then it is now. Two years ago, my brothers and I stopped coming to Yucaipa GC. The tournaments have since been moved to other courses. Now, over the past year, me, my brothers and friends are back and enjoying the course. Mando at the bar usually checks us in and is always in a good mood.

Conditions have been getting better and therefore, for the 2nd year in a row, family and friends are members / in the Chapman Rewards program which is awesome. Look into it!

Course Negatives: Things that should and still need to be addressed. This could have easily been avoided. Our tee time was 11:24. Why, for the first 4 holes were there lawnmowers going up and down the fairways with no regards to players waiting to tee off? They would drive up next to us at the tee or even on the fairway, set the blade down in the middle of our backswing. It was a bit surprising and a comically aggravating way to start the first 4 holes. Shouldn’t be an issue. From my experiences, mowing is usually done earlier. Anyone else?

The bunkers aren’t getting worse or better. They tend to have drainage issues with any rain and even if they are dry, with the amount of rocks overwhelming 90% of the dirt, not sand bunkers, we are forced to remove our ball to prevent club damage.

Hole 18 in its entirety has went from worst to one of the best in its condition and playability. Sadly, the par 5 hole #2 green can’t seem to get fixed. It’s been years since that greens condition was remotely nice and the two bunkers around #2 green are the worst on the course.

Overall, the layout is fun and the course is gaining momentum in the right direction. Playing again tomorrow!
