The Golf Club at Rancho California — Local services in Murrieta

We had a Tee time of 2:30, but when we got there they informed us they were just finishing up a tournament, but we would make our time. Well that was off; we didn’t get on for over an hour later than our scheduled time and then groups in the tournament were going around us on the course. Because of the backup, we didn’t finish, so my friend spoke to the Director of Golf Larry Werner and he said he would have to speak to the owner and call back. He didn’t call back so, my friend called him. He said the owner would not comp 9 holes. This was complete BS since it was their mismanagement of the tournament and lack of honesty on where they were with the times. I decided to call myself to try and get the owner info to give them the opportunity to make it right before posting a negative review, but the person (very friendly and professional) did not know who the owner was; although she did give me the General Managers name. When I called back to speak to him, Larry answered the phone and told me the GM was no longer working there. When I asked for the owners name, he said he would ask the owner to call me. Golf is not cheap and when a golf course screws things up, it should be no problem to comp the 9 holes we didn’t get to play. Very disappointing to...

Unfortunately, bad management has dragged this great track down over the last couple years. Played early and battled sprinklers in the middle of the fairways on multiple holes and maintenance drowning the greens and bunkers while waiting to hit our approach shots. Took relief from puddles in the fairways from the sprinklers being on so long. They definitely could've done the watering well before the first tee times, or stayed a couple holes ahead of the first group. Fairways are pretty beat up and weeds are taking over the entire course. Greens rolled nice, but were very soft. Tee boxes were not mown tight enough for iron shots on par 3 holes. Bunkers are basically dirt or mud. If you play in the late afternoon, be prepared to get kicked off the course with plenty of light left. They care more about saving payroll than serving customers. The price makes it bearable, but some of these issues are avoidable with...

This course makes choosing to play golf here very difficult. Three different times now I have tried to go play twilight golf beyween 4-4:30, and each time they told me the course is closed and the last time they allow golfers out is 4:00.

This in in late August and September when the sun sets at 7:00 to 7:10.

That may be a sign because the cost to play here is $10 to $15 more than any other course around Temecula/Murrieta.

The staff and employees are very unfriendly and unwelcoming when walking into the facility and golf shop. Not a fun place to be around and extremely bad at creating a sense of community for their patrons. It's quite shocking actually.

The course itself is not bad, but the people/emloyees and their policies are some of the worst I have ever encountered in the 35 years I've experienced as a former golf professional.

Everyone I speak to about this tells me they have similar...
