Rating 71.6

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.

First Time Playing

Course was very poor at best

Over a 5 hour round on a poorly manicured course. The foursome in front of our foursome had to be first time golfers taking multiple shots and wasting time. No Marshall around to speed up play. First and last time I will play here.

Unlike an urban muni course...great value.

You get the feeling that you're playing a remote course in the country with open hills, a river, and horses grazing in a meadow nearby. This course does not snake through a housing development. The course itself is not tight or bunched up like all muni courses. I've never been "backed up" on this course, and most importantly, it is a great value. Be prepared for some wind.

If you like to play in the wind....GR is your course.

When it's windy (which is usually the case) the course is very challenging, on less windy days the course is not that difficult, the greens are in good shape and easy to read, the course is in really good condition, it's a good value if you can land a deal.

Definately not 3 stars!

I read some of the recent 5 star reviews and hoped this really might be a 3 star experience for my family. It was not. Rental clubs were a disappointment too.

OC course without the Oc up charge!

get there before the wind picks up or else.. the course can be tough. Stay in the fairways, the trees and leaves will eat you up, don't show up thinking you will handle this course , its not hard but far from easy do to the rough and the wind. The greens are much better over the past 2 years. Art the head pro had brought this course together after caltrans beat it up. They have a very nice practice hole you can rent for $10.00 an hour , its about 115 yards in to a green with bunkers, that includes a cart to get there and a small bucket to hit at the range later. try it at different times and feel the wind. fun to have to take a 7 iron when your used to hitting sw. all in all if you goof golf , good food and bar and great staff.

Nice course for your money

Nice course overall. Wish the snack stands were open midway through but you're back at the clubhouse after the 12th hole. Only downside was the windy conditions that are normal for this course and the freight trains that pass every 20-30 minutes.

If you are looking for wind . . .

Green River is a decent course, but it is almost always quite windy in its location in the Santa Ana Valley, so if you do not like playing in the wind, then give it a pass.

The front nine, from the old Riverside Course before the two courses (the Orange and Riverside) had to be combined, is the nicer of the two. It meanders away from the freeway, and you really feel that you are out in the country. The back nine has a few weaker holes and is closer to the freeway, and just is not as interesting. Pace of play has been a problem the last few times I have played, about five hours.

Overall, Green River is in decent, but not great condition. The greens were in fairly good condition and the fairways average. If you do not mind the wind, it is worth a play.

Green River Sneaks Up You!

Green River at first seems like a nice walk in a great country pasture, but soon it starts to show it's got some teeth. I love the place, it's got some nice long holes as well as some tricky par 3s. Plenty of bunkers will keep you honest and the river running through it comes into play if you get greedy and try to stretch out your drives. The greens were in superb shape and the fairways allowed for some decent roll. I have to confess I was a pit casual at first and got behind the course. It snuck up on me and I was fighting to get back to normal score. The course won this round but I'll be back, it's hard to get this track out of your mind once you go a round there.

Very nice course and a great value.

Green River is a fun course to play. A fairly flat course, with some water holes, the major hazards are trees, of which there are many. The layout is fair, and the fairways are very nicely maintained, which is surprising considering the reasonable fees charged. The greens are a little on the slow side, and they are well-kept. The fairways are not too tight, but you definitely want to stay out of the trees. I found the course enjoyable. The pace of play is pretty fast, and the staff is great. If you play twilight, you can get a fantastic deal and still finish 18 holes.

Green River layout of holes 7 thru 12 difficult and aesthetic.

We found the course unassuming yet very challanging.
When you turn towards the 13 hole the topography and wind patterns make for a good test of golf skills.

Fun course, watch out for slow twilight play

The revised layout is still a lot of fun here and you better bring your long game. Greens are in good shape but a little bouncy on some greens.

Twilight play gets really backed up but the Marshall does a great job of moving things along. He came by at least twice to let us know he's moving people along which is a rare site these days.

we started behind a "medical pot" tournament so play was very slow.

The course was in very good condition. The staff was very friendly and tried to be helpful regarding the slow play. We played thru 13, replayed 1,2 & 12 and called it a day. Would have been a 5+ hour day if stayed the course. The "pot" players were interesting to watch to say the least. Was surprised such a tournament would be booked on a weekend.

We got through the course in 4 hours....on a Sunday. It is well maintained and moderately challenging. Fairly priced. All in all a very good golf experience.
