Love this course

Best value for a course in Orange County. Good food and very friendly people in snack bar, hilarious kick in the pants with person checking you in, very helpful in getting people organized
. Been playing on the course for over 10 years and will continue as long as I can golf. I always recommend my friends and family and they are always satisfied. Keep the prices and service the same please, great job.

Early Closing

Not happy that we got a warning they were pulling all the flags at 4:20 pm. There was plenty of daylight until after 5 pm. Greens were pretty good but, the fairways were below average.

First Time Playing

First time to play course.

Greens are in fantastic shape! Course layout is different due to the river. I enjoyed the layout. Tough par 3’s. Very slow pace of play. Took 5.5 hours to play on a Sat. I won’t be back.
