First time playing here - great conditions

Had a great time. Conditions were great. I was paired with a couple of nice locals. Pace was good as expected since it was 110 degrees.

Deal tee time was well worth it!!!

The course conditions were drier than I expected. The fairways were greenish but dry. I was expecting lusher conditions considering the cooler weather lately. Staff was great and everyone was friendly. Drink prices were reasonable, unlike many courses that have jacked up costs. Pace was good for a busy Saturday. The mountain views were worth the drive away from LV and Henderson. I don't think I would go back at full price, but that's just me. Thanks Boulder Creek!!!

Slow pace, but worth the drive once in awhile

It's a beautiful course. There were some yellow areas in the fairways and the tee boxes were not great. Unfortunately, my friend & I got paired with a married couple that barely spoke English. The really slowed us down. It was painful. They kind of ruined our first experience at this course.
Even if they played faster, the overall pace was slow anyway.

Very nice city course. It has better conditions than most of the LA course in the valley. It's worth the drive once in a while.

Fun simple course

Had a great time. I was paired with 3 other people. We played fast and rarely had to wait. We finished in 4 hours. Fairways and tee boxes were in fair condition considering the drought. Greens were in good shape but were extremely slow. Very hard to adjust to. Overall, i had a great time.

Too slow for a Monday

The course is decent for a local 9 hole. The pace was slow....3 hours. One hole had about 3 groups before us.

Beautiful course with hills and plenty water hazards

I had a 6:51AM tee time so pace was not an issue. With no one in front, we (3 people) finished in under 4 hours. Greens - very good, fairways - good, tee boxes - fair. The layout was challenging already, but coupled with the extreme winds.... expect to 3 putt often. I had a blast. For comparison, I would say it plays easier then Industry Hills, but more difficult than Ranch Park. Aesthetically, it was beautiful with the ponds, hills, trees, nice homes, etc. It's definitely worth the drive out of the LA area.

Great layout

This is fun course and a hidden gem. It's a pain to get to La Habra from the westside, but it was worth it. This course is comparable to Corona courses. It's pretty hilly and the greens were in good condition. There's a few water hazards as well. The afternoon wind did kick up. It took about 4 hrs. & 15 minutes to finish. Not too bad. FYI, everyone starts on hole 10.

Nice cheap practice course

The longest hole is 180 yards. The greens are not very challenging. This course is great for practicing approach shots and chipping.

Had a great time.

The greens were in excellent condition. The fairways were okay. There was plenty of hills, narrow fairways, and hitting across water. It was a fun course. The wind started kicking up around 11AM. The degree of difficulty just went way up. The pace for a Saturday morning 9:30 tee time were much better than expected. Done in less than 4 hours. Driving the cart under the overpass was a little creepy. I was on the lookout for an ambush. Other than that, it was a fun course. Will definitely recommend this place.

So slow on a Monday

I had a 12:08 tee time for 2. We were there an hour early. It was crowded and over sold. I assume they took a bunch of walk-ons. They finally got us out 10 minutes late. The starter was frustrated himself. It took over 3 hours to finish the front 9 on the south course. The smartest move I made was to switch to the front 9 of the north course with the starters approval. We never caught up to any group in front and finished 9 holes in under 2 hours. I should have raised a stink with the staff but we were tired and just went to dinner.

Had a fun round on Friday afternoon

The conditions were fair, but some greens are in repair. The course offers excellent challenge. Most drives are a practice in target golf. There a variety of different size and sloped greens. The bunkers were firm though. Our threesome played a decent pace. We never caught the group in front nor were we ever caught by the group behind. If you are okay with 90 degree weather on a weekday, 1 pm is the time to go.

Great 9 hole course

The conditions were great. It was about $14 to walk. The fairways were in good condition, and the greens were in excellent condition. The fairways were narrow. This course was great for short game practice.

Sooooooo slow

Overloaded with players. The pace is really slow. Finished 15 holes in 4.5 hours. We gave up and left. On a positive note, this is the best course to escape the heat.

Beautiful course, but slow

It took 5 hours. Started at 11:50 am and waited at every hole. The layout and elevation changes were challenging. I was paired up with a single and a twosome. The other single left after 11 holes. I assume this slow pace is not the norm, but it may be for the afternoon. It was my first time here and I drove over an hour to golf here so I wasn't going to leave early. I was barely able to finish. I learn the place is all about placement. Laying up is the smart move in most cases.

Fun course. Some par 4s play long.

Fun course. Back 9 seemed more difficult than the front, but that might be just may swing going bad. Bad shots get punished by the creek. I was told real men lay up.

Really nice course on a Friday

Greens and fairways were in good condition. Pace was fine for a Friday. I played the South front 9 and the East back 9. This course has 36 holes. My Garmin watch was unusable, but the Golf Pad app worked great when you select the right sets of holes. The layout is really fun and the greens were a bit fast.

Very nice local course. It was somewhat flat but the fairways were fair, greens were in good shape and a bit slow. Finished play in 4 hours. Oh, there are no water hazards from my recollection.

Fun short course

All in all, it is a very nice course. The some fairways are narrow and challenging for a slicer like me. Another challenge was the airplane noise. Fun see them take off though while you are hitting. The greens needed some work. Darn people wouldn't fix their divots. I tried fixing a minimum of 5 divots per hole. Hope others will make a better effort fixing divots.

Dry fairways

The course was a good value for an early tee time. The main problems were the poor conditions in the fairways and tee boxes. Luckily the greens were okay. The club house and cafe were closed, but at least they some snacks at the pro shop. Nice staff. Wish I didn't need an early tee time. There were plenty of deals at other courses.
