Green River Golf Club

About
The beauty of the Santa Ana Canyons surrounds Green River Golf Club in Corona. The club originally had two 18-hole courses but they have been combined to form one massive, sprawling golf course. Although it is surrounded by hills and valleys, the course itself is mostly flat, making it a good round for high handicappers. The fairways are wide and forgiving, making it even more player friendly for beginners. There are still many challenges in store on this golf course though, including a number of river and creek crossings and strategically placed bunkers. The Santa Ana winds that sweep across the course can often make reaching the greens in regulation quite tough and the abundant trees, while providing a scenic and secluded atmosphere, also add to Green River Golf Club's difficulty.

Green River
The course layout is great, and over all it is in good shape. There were a few bare dirt lies, but we had a blast and the people were great. We will be back soon!
Good deal, nice greens, fun course
Course had easy to play par 4s and 5s. Limited obstacles by course design. The pace was normal. The only negative was the fairway edges which have lots of dark colored leaves dropped from the trees and some gopher mounds that make finding a sliced ball very difficult. If you hit the fairway nicely the course is easy to setup birdie opportunities. If you hit your second or third shots from the fairway edges you might burn too much time looking for the ball even if it’s in front of your face. But overall still fun to play.
First tee time of the day. Quick round, course is in good shape. Clubhouse is being renovated.
the two combined
For those who can remember the 2 courses back in the day I never get tired of playing at Green River....the front 12 holes of the riverside side are awesome and back 6 of the orange side still reminds me of the magic. Love the 2 par fives to finish....give this course 2-3 weeks to heal from from the fall punch and grab a tee time....I will
Super Slow
There were 2 foursomes ahead of my group.
They were a girls high school team “practicing “ for an upcoming tournament. The pace they were playing was going to be a 7 hour round!
After a call to the pro-shop they were told to speed up. Then it was on pace for a six and a half hour round. My group finally jumped both foursomes at the 12th and played through 18 without catching another group. After going back to finish 12 we finished in 5.5 hours.
You get what you pay for
Ok golf course. Tricky greens. Nothing special. Range is lacking.
Affordable golf in a nice location
Good course conditions. Bunkers are fantastic and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The only complaint I have is the pace of play. Although we played a four hour road which isn't bad for a Sunday the group ahead of us fell more than 4 holes behind the group ahead of them. Did everything slow. I'd love to see them have a Marshall out there to keep people that have no clue or don't care moving along
Kidney Buster
Well if you are going to play Green River, I suggest bringing a kidney belt! The course is filled with gopher holes and tree roots.. When the cart path ends after the tee boxes BEWARE of where you are driving, BIG RUTS! On the tee boxes there weren't to many flat spots once again full of gopher holes and mounds. I will say that the bunkers had very good sand so that is not a problem at all The rough is extremely high, not sure why. You would think that a course that is mostly Sunday golfers out playing it wouldn't have U.S. Open rough! You had to step on your ball in the rough just to find it which then SLOWS the PACE of play to a snails pace. So if you want a 5 hour round of bouncing around busting your kidneys play Green River if not plenty of other course to play.
Prepping for winter
The fairways were in pretty good shape- but the greens are getting thin. The tee boxes were just terrible !!! They had not been mowed and many were like teeing up in thick rough.
They were starting to punch the roughs- so the grass has not been mowed in those areas. The sand in bunkers is fairly new and bright white. Nice to hit out of !!!
Nice course
Nice course but too bad it’s no longer a 36-hole course like it used to be. But I do enjoy the scenery here. The only problem was they didn’t have a starter. They didn’t have a beer cart and they didn’t have a bar that was open.
Unfriendly staff
The greens being rough, almost getting hit by a ball by the group behind, the slow pace of play, and the little amenities available were nowhere near as big of an issue as how poorly the staff treated my group.
Convenient course with a really friendly staff.
Booked this course online 12 hrs ahead of time no problem.
The greens on the front 9 need some desperate help, especially #1
At least it was decently spread out, unlike the back 9. It felt like every hole was right on top of each other and often balls from the adjacent holes would land in the middle of OUR fairways, leading to risky shots because we were hitting directly toward each other.
Overall the course was a good value for the fees.
Watch out for the winds on the back 9 too!
W I N D Y lots of leaves..
As a golfer you want a little bit of courtesy when you go into a golf shop. You won't get that here... expect dismissive rudeness for spending $300.00+ on golf. Sorry we bothered you by spending money to keep you employed. Everything about the check-in was unpleasant. The range is terrible but they have a great putting green. They only rent the chipping area for $14 but they do allow you to practice putting without charging for it. Once on the course it was very windy... like 30 mph plus as the course winds through a canyon. that makes for tree litter, we spend much of our time looking for balls because of leaves. While the holes were moderately straight forward the signage to get to those holes is pretty bad expect to get lost. Never saw a Marshall or cart person the whole day. greens were ok and the bunkers looked nice, the rough did not seem maintained at all. I would say it is worth maybe $45 with cart if you don't mind the uncaring staff and windy play. However they charge $70.00...your call.

Got a pre-paid deal which was great. Problem was two fivesomes were sent off ahead of us. Pace of play still wasnt too bad. Still, its a terrible policy to allow groups of 5 out.
