Fun Course but very fast greens

I enjoy this course and play it often, most of the times the greens run very fast. There has been times that the greens are perfect in the speed. The layout gives you some challenge and they fairways are getting in much better condition. I would recommend this course to friends as it is a great value for the challenge you have to deal with on the round of play. Over all Enjoyed the play.

Need a new greens keeper

Great layout that lost the TLC to manage the course conditions a few years ago. Too many greens had major damage.

Poor Customer Service and Poor Course Condition

We won’t be coming back to this golf course! We were given a cart without a GPS (and he knew it). Poor management and poor customer service. The course is run down and not in good shape. Stay away from The Golf Club at Rancho California. What a bad experience we had!

Terrible Shape

Went to play with my girlfriend on MLK day. I played here 10+ years ago and it was a good challenge and in great shape. This time very disappointing. On the range, we were hitting balls and attendant comes up and says to move forward a couple of feet to hit between the ropes. My bad, but I look between ropes and there is nothing by dirt/mud, and "she says yeah sorry not much grass". On the course the conditions of the fairway and rough were terrible. I had to bump the ball on 80% of my shots to ensure I could get it airborne. Greens were quick and in decent shape.

Disappointed with conditions and won't play here again.

Rancho California

A generally well run course that could use some small enhancements to make it -really- nice.

The course itself was in really good shape. No dead spots, good bunkers, good looking tee boxes, etc.

Some amenities were lacking such as ball washers with water. No water coolers on the course. Many bunkers on the back 9 were missing rakes for some reason. On course bathrooms could use some maintenance as they're a bit run-down. Small details...but details make the experience.

Definitely a good value in the Temecula area.
