Good and bad

The course is beautiful regarding playing through the mountains and hillside. The course is also not in great shape. Perhaps the rain is too much to keep things where they should be for the cost, but fairways were beat up and greens were inconsistent. I'd opt for the hot deal time only for this course (thankfully we did).

Awesome!

From the moment we pulled up the staff were so friendly. The driving range was stocked with balls. The cart was clean. The starter, Peter, was very nice. We played the Mission/Vista courses and they were in very good shape. Food and drinks at palapas were tasty (bring some cash for tips). Pace always slows on Vista course due to difficulty and quirkiness, but still finished just after 4 hours. Well worth the hot deal time price we paid.

DON'T DO IT!!! REMODEL IN PROGRESS!!

They have 9 holes closed!! The other 9 are okay, but conditions aren't great. They allow you to play back 9 twice. They also don't mention it on GolfNow booking notes nor when you check in. We literally found out on the first tee box. What a joke. Don't play for a long time. Renovations not completed until late November. Fairways on open 9 being aerated.

WAIT!

Course only has back 9 open until mid-November. The course, nor GOLFNOW, will inform you until you're in your cart. Shame as I would've booked elsewhere. DON'T BOTHER.

Quality track

Oak Quarry is a fun, challenging golf course. Greens are fast and well kept. Fairways are currently a bit dormant, but in decent shape. Bunkers were a little inconsistent. Layout is very good. Pace was decent. Staff is friendly. Carts are first rate. Sandwiches and wings in Clubhouse were delicious. I'd suggest sharing the sandwich. So huge. Definitely the best course around the Riverside area.

Worth the visit

Jurupa Hills isn't a tremendously long course, but it is tight! Bring your straightest shots or you'll be in the trees (I certainly enjoyed some bark). The layout is well thought out for a shorter course. Good undulation and a couple of doglegs. Greens were smooth. Bunkers were consistent. Fairways had some thin areas, but a quick bump made it ok. I'd definitely play here again if I was in the area.

Pace of play nightmare

Didn't finish my round. Left at 4:40 mark. Just terrible. Marshal not concerned. Traveling group at least one hole behind. Course in decent condition.

Wait a but

Course was in tough shape. Punched greens, plugged fairways and rough, bare areas, temporary green were the issues. I'd wait a few weeks before playing out here.

Pace of play issues!

Hidden Valley is a relatively fun course to play, for the most part. Quirky layout, decent conditions and good (not great) greens. However, the pace of play is simply embarrassing. 12:10 tee time, tee'd off at 12:30. Waited on every hole and almost every shot. Finished in over 5 hours. Not one marshal keeping players moving on a course that desperately needs it. As for the course, fairways average, almost no rough and bare bunkers. A couple blind tee shots. Guess the price is what keeps them coming back, but I won't be any time soon. I played on a Tuesday. Ouch.

Fantastic course

La Cantera, Palmer course is a magnificent layout. Major elevation changes, routing through the hills, tough but fair course. Greens were pretty good, sand was inconsistent but probably due to rainfall. A bit pricey but the layout and views make it worth it.

Nice place to play

Delaware Springs is a nice golf course deep into hill country. In fact that is the main issue....distance. Not sure that given the course layout it is worth the drive from Austin. Passing courses that are a bit more expensive, but far closer was a tough pill to swallow. The other surprise was how relatively flat this course is being that it is in the hills. There just isn't a great deal of excitement given the property the course was built on.

Whoa!

Phenomenal layout! Loved Cinnabar Hills and will definitely be playing it again. Great use of topography, with dramatic elevation changes and playability. Can't wait to play it on a warm summer day.

Just meh

Not sure why the course is so heralded, to be perfectly honest. It was okay to play, fairways along one another, different styles of design from the front to back and a par 3, tenth hole that felt like an afterthought. The poor man's pebble was simply unremarkable, given the moniker it has held. Three links style holes near the water just aren't enough to warrant a better review. Waiting on every tee box, once with two groups waiting, just isn't that fun.
