Appalling and pathetic golf course

This is definitely the worst course in the area. The staff do not know anything about golf, the course conditions are embarrassing, the clubhouse is unattractive. For any price, this course should be avoided unless you are not a golfer and just want to hack around. The experience is terrible and I will never return to this course again. I have sent a mass email to all my golfing friends in the area and sadly they agree. I wish I paid attention to some of the reviews before booking a round.

Let us assume that you skip the clubhouse and staff and just focus on the course. The greens are slow and damaged. The fairways are filled with dead grass, the bunkers have no sand feel like concrete. The tee boxes are filled with weeds and so attractive, I felt like I needed gloves on both hands to enter them. Whoever runs this place has turned this old course into an embarrassment of a course. Regrettable.

If you are a true golfer, I would definitely avoid this place no matter what the price. Yes, you will pay more elsewhere but given the true ignorance of the staff that do not know anything about golf, it is best to play at other course in Corona. For example, try Eagle Glen just south on 15. You will thank me.

It's too bad...

The course has possibilities but the condition of some of the fairways is horrendous! The bunkers are hardpan, and the greens could use some tlc. The staff is friendly but obviously it must be a financial concern they can't overcome to overhaul the course. I only play here when I can get a "hot deal" which for me is a couple of dollars more than a large bucket of range balls at some courses.

Response from on 10/11/2017:
Hello, thank you for taking the time to review our course, Cresta Verde Golf Course, in the Inland Empire area. We are sorry to hear that the course may not have been in the best shape when you played, specifically throughout the fairways and on the greens. It sounds like you have a friendly experience with our staff whenever you are with us, so we are glad to see that. Thank you for golfing with us and we hope to see you again soon.

Love the layout, course needs some love

I've been playing here for 12 years. Love this layout and variety of holes. Course has seen better days. Fairways had some rough areas and the bunkers are more like craters with hard pack. Greens were ok. Still was a fun round. Good value for the price.

Needs more love...

After not playing this course in years, I decided to give it a try last Sunday (4-30) based on reviews that the course was improving. Unfortunately I have to say it's not quite there yet. I used to play this course on a regular basis when it was in much better shape. It's a shame because it is a fun layout with interesting holes.

First off let me start by saying the pace of play was excellent since we were one of the first groups to tee off at 6am and there was no one in front of us. The price is just about right considering the shape of the course. The fairways were patchy with some bald spots and the rough was kind of a mixed bag. The sand traps were a joke as they were hard as rocks and I noticed that some bunkers had been taken out. The greens were in OK shape but were in desperate need of a cut. Some greens were completely saturated with water even though they were in the sun all day!

Overall I was happy with my round and I shot a decent score, but I will wait to play it again until I here better reviews.

Course Conditions Rough

Played this course and was very displeased with the way it played. It would have been a fantastic course but the only gripe is the awful fairway conditions. Half the time it felt like trying to hit off of concrete, the other half it felt like hitting off of crab grass. Everything is so dried out and dead out there that it made me appreciate the better kept courses in the area. Other than that. If the course was actually well maintained or rejuvenated to the point where it had some life to it, i would have enjoyed it. The course lay out is challenging, but the major downer is the conditions. Tee boxes are in bad shape, greens aren't kept or pressed, and the fairways are roughs, and the roughs are overgrown weeds...

Needs Attention

I've been playing Creste Verde a few times a year for past 5 years. It has its ups and downs but mainly the course needs attention. Course lay out is fun, some tricky holes and a lot of elevation/slope challengers. The owner is really friendly and nice but unfortunately the course is not maintained. For under $30 bucks you'll feel satisfied to play here and get the golf itch relief but will leave unsatisfied with course because it has so much potential.

The worst!

The greens were edged all the way around as if a child was given a weed wacker, the fairways were in less then poor conditions. On top of that people throw there dog waist out onto the course....... Also you get a quarter bucket of balls for 5 bucks at the driving range.

The course offers a many plesant challenges

The staff was warm and friendly.

The greens were very well taken care of.

The fairways were finally looking really good.

I was impressed that the bunkers now had nice sand instead of hard pan.

In my opinion, Cresta Verda is a great value for the money.

The tee boxes could use some improvement but I believe they are working on that.

Excellent Golf Course

My Buddy and A love playing Cresta Verde. The course is challenging but friendly. Fairways are wide enough for the high handicap yet sloped enough to challenge the low handicap. I've played a lot of different golf courses and have never found a better more attentive staff. MeHee, Gina and Mike make you feel like family, even on your first visit. MeHee has been making a lot of improvements to the course over the past few years so if you've never played Cresta Verde or if you haven't played there in a few years you owe it to yourself to get to Corona and play this great golf course.
