Murietta golf

Couse was challenging. And pace was good. Was not to pleased that I had to pay for my cart when on golf now had cart Included, but due that not enough cart, I could not my own cart without paying again. I will not definitely come back by myself again so they can change me again $20 for my cart. The discount on golf now was not worth it.

Good classic course - worth playing

Played mid-morning on a Saturday. Warm to start and hot at finish. Course was crowded but a mix of 2somes, 3somes and 4somes which caused some waiting. Especially because one foresome was unbelievably clueless. After the group in front of us skipped through them after waiting on the whole front 9, we got to witness the cluelessness of the group. We sat on the tee for about 10 minutes after they hit and one guy hit his ball about 50 yards into the pond. Parked his cart and walked around (without a club and a ball for another 5-10 minutes with no interest or awareness. 2 guys were on the green, but two were clueless. After waiting for 20 minutes where the one 2 some hadn't even swung a 2nd or third shot towards the green, we skipped the hole and went to 11. Marshall was aware of them, but didn't succeed in moving them along.

Ugly

1st and last visit. Not nice. Not friendly. Not flexible.

Need to plant some grass.

Greens were good and bunkers had rare white sand. T boxes awful.

Course needs some TLC

Murrieta course

Save money on Golf now hot time but they charge me a $20 on the golf cart when I paid on golf now for cart due to could not have my own cart. So the saving on my golf was gone from paying for my own cart. Would not play this course again without a partner.

Best of the season

I always play on Wednesdays, for the first time, all the holes were cut well, except for the "volcanoes" around the cup. The course itself is in very good condition, I just wish the staff were more player friendly...

Nice course

Nice course, just bummed they don’t open the range until 7:00, which is machine operated. We had a tee time prior to 7 and got there 35 minutes early to practice but had to go off cold which affected the first 3 holes. But after that our play got better. Never heard of a course not having their range open though for practice.

Improvements noticed

It's been a minute since I last played here. The conditions have definitely improved from the fairways to the greens and especially the white sanded bunkers surrounding every green which were plush and fluffy. The course plays long on some holes adding to the difficulty level and skills needed to have a good round. The pace of play was good, greens were excellent, fairways were decent. I was pleasantly surprised of such good conditions and I would totally recommend this course and return for another round in the future.
