Rental Clubs

I was visiting from Texas and I had reliable information (albeit wrong) that this club had rental clubs. I showed up at the clubhouse for my round and learned of the bad news BUT to my surprise the staff went above-and-beyond to scramble up a loaner bag. That kind of service made my weekend and while certainly unusual circumstances, I have a strong suspicion this club does whatever possible to accommodate their guests. This is a challenging and well maintained course, I had a great time.

Course conditions

Course conditions were the worst in years. Bunkers are unplayable, surrounding areas seem neglected. We’re having severe heat and it has been crazy weather however the surrounding courses are in better shape.

One of the most beautiful golf courses in our area

Every time I come here, it makes me realize how beautiful these mountains really are! The last time I came, I was lucky enough to observe a beautifully colored timber rattlesnake, but this time I only saw deer and a bald eagle… Nevertheless, it was a great experience on an immaculate golf course!

The course is very pretty and the fairways are mostly pretty wide.
Every green had dozens of ball marks; why don't other players fix their ball marks?!
There are many holes on the course that might be played differently on subsequent times on the course.
It's a tough but fair test of golf.

Tough course

Lake Arrowhead is a mountain type course. You will find very few flat lies, which makes it difficult. It is a beautiful layout and pretty well maintained. A number of the holes are forced to fit the terrain, particularly number 5 … it is a par 5 but requires a perfect downhill tee shot to get there in regulation. Have played there several times and like it but it is very hard to score well on.

great course

Very technical course, not a very long course, blacks are 7000+ yards, but very fun. This course is in some mountain territory, the ride in from the secured gate is about 10 minutes to the course, but very secluded and beautiful.
Staff was friendly and courteous and plenty of space between golf groups to play at a reasonable rate. We never felt that rushed. Price is great for what your get.

Good value and course conditions

This is a good, challenging course that doesn’t punish. My son and I are both high handicappers ( 90s), and were told in the pro shop that the course was VERY difficult. While I can totally understand why they would say that, it wasn’t as punishing as it could have been given the massive elevation changes. Perhaps it was the guidance that made me play safer than usual, or maybe the absolute disastrous pre- round range session, but I par’d more holes than usual (4) and had a great time. Would absolutely recommend.
