Would like to return
The bent greens were kept in excellent condition.
Because of a weekday, the pace of game was
constantly moving.
Definitely I would like to come back to play again!
slow
I booked the time not knowing that there was a tournament directly in front of me. The speed of play was horrible. It took almost 6 hours. I don't understand why five some are allowed let alone why they were taking 10 minutes to putt out. Very disappointed.
This course is often hilly.
The course is moderately challenging. The landscape is often hilly, so where you land your ball can be crucial. Trees frequently come into play. You must be careful as sometime parallel fairways mean you must watch out not to get hit by others' golf shots. We had a 1 o'clock tee time, but did not get to start until about 1:40.
Good course, great value
Very well taken care golf course in Walnut. Good value if you play twilight.
Good course
I am happy to play this course and will be come back again, if the price is the same.
Too Slow.
Course in nice condition considering it's winter and we have had a lack of water. Greens rolling true and smooth. Negative review due to POP - played on a Saturday; no course marshal seen in over 5 hours! Also allowed fivesomes on a weekend - crazy!
Avoid on Weekends
Short and sweet. The course is extremely slow on weekends. 5+ hours. Had a good time though. Good company made the round fun. Course was in great shape and I scored well. I will go again, but on a weekday.
bad experinece with staff members
I arrived about an hour and half early and went to check in and get a bucket of balls, before I could explain I wanted a bucket of balls he rudely interrupted me and said "come back at your T time!" I had to explain that I wanted a bucket of balls in which I'm sure he felt stupid. Another guy as a field marshal jumped down our throats and said that he saw us from across the street "driving up to the green" We were nowhere near the green but stayed on the cart path. Other then these two staff members bad attitudes and jumping on patrons it's a nice course to play
Great time
Great time pace a little slow but overall great. Will for sure be back. The north course is pretty tough. Bring your a game.
Bad-Ugly
I made an on-line reservation that they had on the computer but for some unexplained reason they did not honor. In the end, I was sent out as a single among fivesomes! I was accosted ant threatened by other golfers on the first tee before even teeing off. People hit balls at me on the green. Divots went unfilled. Bunkers were not raked. Ball dents not repaired. Never again!
great value
Course is in great shape greens will test you. Pace is a little slow other than that I would definitely recommend playing with a good deal.
Spending a Saturday at Royal Vista
the course needs a couple of marshal's out and about monitoring the pace of play. Especially when the course allows 5somes. for Heavens sacs.. Plus you don't have a beverage cart girl running around, going on a weekend pack a Lunch.
Course knowledge necessary
Course is well maintained, has challenging holes but can be enjoyable at the same time
C'mon with it already
Hey, the course is okay and when they're not working on it somedays are better than others. The real problem with the course is the 5+ hours playtime. And anyone putting a comment on here that doesn't admit that is seriously mistaken or probably works for the course. I'm pretty much a regular-solely because of its location and unless I skip holes there's literally no way to get out of there before 5 hours. Now I shoot in the 90's so maybe that's part of the reason, but when you look at almost every green and watch the fivesome in front of you look like they're praying at every put you tend to understand why the pace slows down so much.
Great Condition, Wonderful Staff
I'm really enjoying playing this course! The staff are great- courteous, friendly, helpful. the hot dogs in the snack bar are a good deal, range balls are inexpensive, and the pace pf play seems to alwyas go pretty well (mid morning tee time). The fariways are in good shape, as are the greens. Tee boxes are being reseeded in places, but you can find a flat spot to hit from.
very good.
We like this course very much.
because NOT TO FAR from Los Angeles.
price is so good..
I can meet some other friends at the course.
All staffs are very nice to us.
Maintained all courses.
We love to play ther once a 1-2 times a month.
Thanks.
Great course!
challenging course with wicked greens for a bunch of 50 yr old beginners... a bad day at golf still beats a good day at work!
royal vista saturday
Course was / is in excellent condition. Lush fairway's and very good greens. Bunkers a little too wet...were a little cement like. Overall very good conditions.
Very impressed with how nice the greens rolled.
I felt the course was in decent shape. I was impressed by the greens. They rolled true and seemed to be pretty quick. Pace of play was slow.
Sloppy course
All T-boxes were temporary ,laying in water and mud. Tee would not stay in ground because of sloppy conditions. Was not told of this before round, a little info would have been appreciated. Greens were the hardest greens I have ever played on.Wedge shots would explode and jump 20 feet. Pin placements were very difficult for average holders Was very disappointed overall with course and staff.
c'mon since new ownership pace of play has been 5+ there's no way someone can enjoy that. And really, what's so good about the hot dogs? Ive been playing there quite frequently and not because of its "greatness" simply because it's close.
