About

Holes 18
Type Public
Par 72
Length 6858 yards
Slope 126
Rating 72.5

El Prado Golf Course in Chino offers two 18-hole courses, Chino creek and Butterfield Stage. Chino Creek is the longer of the two at 6,858 yards from the back tees. It is also considered more challenging but both are player friendly enough to appeal to all skill levels. As its name would imply, the Chino Creek runs along the entire length of the golf course. You find water in several different forms throughout the course including lakes and meandering streams. The layout is spread across rolling terrain with elevation changes that range from subtle to dramatic. Several of the holes begin from elevated tees and it's likely you'll face more than one uphill battle. Trees and bunkers also come into play but the fairways are wide and forgiving. It's not an overly difficult golf course but beginners can also try the shorter and less challenging Butterfield Stage Course.

Fairways are Really Nice for Summer!

The course was in really good shape for the summer.

El Prado is VERY fortunate to have the luxury of reclaimed water. The tee boxes were good. The fairways were especially good. AND the greens were excellent. We played in the morning 5:51 am and the pace was 2.5 hours with a twosome. That was OUTSTANDING!

Thank you for a great round!

Smiling Kevin

Our cart died on us twice in one round and they had to switch out the carts. We had to push the dead carts to move away from the fairways for other players while waiting. After the round, we went to see the pro shop manager, Kevin, to notify the issues and asked if he can extend any concession. Instead of any apologies, he stated that “our staffs switched out the carts and what else do you need”. He had a fake smile on his face and gave us contemptuous look. He needs to get some training how to treat their customers with respect. I am not going back to the course again!

Fun round

The course has different types of holes to challenge your game. Fairways and greens were kept in pretty good conditions. It can be really bad if you hit it wide. Greens are relatively small. Few par-3s -are long. It’s fun to spend the afternoon in a relaxing manner to practice your shots.

Snail Play

Took over 2.5 hours to play the front 9. I wasn’t in the mood to play a 6 hour round so I just went home. I’ve played here before and the pace was fine. I will just play my usual courses from now on and avoid Prado. Having to wait 10-15 min to tee off isn’t fun for anyone.
