I'm seeing reviews that say this course is in good condition. I'd hate to see it on a bad day. The fairways and greens are OK, but the rest of the course is full of dead spots and hard pan. I hope that I don't get cancer from playing this course that seems to have been built on a landfill - you can smell the sewage on the closing holes. I feel sorry for LA/Riverside golfers being forced to play courses like this.

Great course and grass driving range!

Friendly staff. Great course. Forgiving fairways (for the beginner and intermediate golfers). Heads up, the cart fee is $45.

Will continue to play here.

Course is decent for the price

Layout is pretty wide open, lots of Parallel fairways, decent course conditions for $60 tee time at 9am on a Sunday. Cart need some updating, had to switch out at the turn battery was dying out, saw a couple carts getting pushed due to dead battery’s also. Will be playing again.

“Cart Included”

When tee time was booked, golfnow said cart included with price but confirmation email stated walking and course charged me $14 more for cart fee. I drove 30 minutes thru traffic to play cause it was good price but wasn’t worth it and it was classic “bait and switch”

Great Course, Great Value

I play Chino Creek and Butterfield regularly. Chino Creek is a little more challenging than Butterfield but Butterfield is majestic with it's wide fairways. Staff is excellent!
