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.

Reliable Place to Tee it Up

This place is the equivalent to a municipal course in terms of challenge and quality, but they’ve got a fantastic grass driving range and putting/chipping range.

Great bar to hang out at after a round as well.

If you’re a novice golfer I’d recommend playing the Butterfield Stage Course.

If you’re looking for more of a challenge give Chino Creek a go.

Good course

Good playing here. There are 3 greens that were driven on by a motorcycle that did several donuts on each green. Didn’t know that before we paid and played. The groundskeeper should fix these as soon as possible and probably rope off the damaged area and allow golfers to lift and place in an area that is under repair.

Just a thought . Great people working there. Good food. Had a fun time on a fun challenging course. Chino Creek Side

Greens Have Been Aerated

The pace of play was great. We were the first ones out and we missed most of the rain. It rained for the last 3 holes. The tee boxes are better since there was no play for a week. The greens had the big punched holes with sand filled, so it was an automatic two putt. There should have been a discount since this was so freshly done. The fairways were in better shape than they had been the last 2 months,
