El Prado Golf Courses - Chino Creek
About
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.

Golfer Reviews
Poor course Management
The group ahead of us held up the entire course with unreasonably slow play. We watched and waited for a course official to talk to them but no one ever did. However, a course employee pulled up to us and accused us of replaying holes because we were progressing so slowly. When we explained that it was the group ahead of us, he dismissed our concern and moved on without talking to them. Then, on 18, our cart died. I called the club house and was told someone would be out as soon as possible. After waiting 15 minutes and seeing that the group behind us was waiting to tee off, we gave up and walked the rest of the hole. By the time we finished, about 25 minutes later, the club house still hadn't sent anyone to assist but we noticed 3 employees at the cart return area standing around chatting and texting on their phones. I emailed the course manager the next morning and never received a response.
Good day for golf
I was a cool windy day. Greens in good condition, pace was slow at times, but manageable ....actually finished in standard time.
Slow, but challenging course.
What a ball-eater. On almost every hole, there are plenty of water or inescapable OB areas to get in your head - especially if you’re playing with $4 goof balls. The greens are deceiving because they look like they have long and significant breaks, but in reality, are dead straight until a foot from the hole. The food at the snack shop is cheap but really good. It took us 6 hours to finish 18 (with a 20 minute lunch at the turn), so it’s definitely slow. But that may just be because of the challenges on r foursome faced.

Roll the rock
There are some things that will be issues for some golfers. I see the staff trying to keep the level of attention to the playing areas on a high level. To those golfers that take a full swipe and a divot on the green- go homr and cut YOUR grass that way- stop chopping around the hole, so OTHER people can enjoy their rounds. Fix a few other pitch marks on every green; in addition to your own, as well.
We apologize for the pace of play issue you experienced. We always try to keep a great pace when having our golfers on the course. Thank you for taking the time to give us your feedback as we will use your review to better the experience going forward. We hope you give us another try in the near future!
