Played here on Cinco De Mayo, at 11:20. Got there about an hour early, just to utilize the great practice facility. Great putting and chipping area. Bunkers to work on sand game, and grass hitting range. The course is always in top notch quality. The tee boxes are firm and flat. Footing is secure for all those power hitters from the tee box. The fairway are well manicured. There aren't any worn out or dry areas. The rough is great to hit out of, you can find and advance your ball strikes, even though the rough is a bit long, about 2". Bunkers have rakes, so we played shots, and the quality is sand was firm but playable. Greens are undulating, and rolling true. Speed seemed med-fast. The have a lot of great challenging holes, which keeps it fun and entertaining. A must play track.

Played here today with my weekly tournament group. We had a good tee time (9am) ,so I got out early enough to miss the usual slow play here. The course was in okay condition. Tee boxes where nice, they are firm and level. The fairways where firm and fast , but they did have some GUR and spotty patchy dirt areas. The rough was a nice playable level, again, some spotty dirt patches. Bunkers with no rakes are in good condition with good quality sand. Greens rolled at a medium pace, but rolled very true. A good place to play, with a lot of undulating fairways ... Fun and challenging.

Played early, before the heat kicked in... The course is in very good condition, some heavy water spots, but not too bad. At least they are watering. The tee boxes are firm and flat, not too much divot damage. The fairways are nicely mowed, keeping it short and playable. The rough had some deeper conditions over 2", but most was cut low enough yplay through. Bunkers where hard packed and looked tough to get out of... I did not land any! The greens are rolling smooth and tru, med-fast. The short but challenging play are the elevated greens, when getting good drives, because of the undulating course. I play again.

I played in the GK Play, on April 24th, at Desert Willow Firecliff. This course/resort, was hard to find any flaws here. They have a large practice area. They have over 20 bays to hit (unlimited) balls. The putting area is large, undulating surface with many holes to putt at. They also have a separate chipping area with many balls to hit. You can spend a good full day here.
Now to the actual golfing... The landscape and scenary is breath taking. Palm trees, ficus, and all sorts of variety of trees and plants. The tee boxes are firm and flat with little to no major divots. Some of the holes can be a bit intimidating with desert landscape separating tee box to fairways... So, select the correct tee box for your ability, or you will be embarrassed and frustrated, not making the fairways on your drives. The fairways are perfect, like carpet. Firm, and a bit plush, giving you great lies, when hitting from the fairway, approaching the green. The rough had 2 rough levels. First cut, low enough to hit from, fairway.the 2nd level was a bit long, about an 1 1/2-2, but playable, long enough to hold till out drives from rolling to far into trouble. Bunkers are nice, with good quality sand. Racks are there,
so USE THEM! The greens are firm, fast, maybe med-fast. Putts rolled, very true. This is definitely a MUST PLAY... Those of who missed this event, will regret this great opportunity. I can't wait until we come back... I'm in!

My buddies and I played this course today, hearing, Montebello CC, may be sold and shutdown for Top Golf... Well, the course was in good shape, of course some typical bare spots, but not bad. The tee boxes where fairly level and not too many divot damage. Fairways where firm and fast, giving good roll out. The rough was cut to a playable level, some parts some deep rough, when you hit too far off the fairways. Bunkers are concrete hard (no take) which is common with many tracks right now. Greens rolled really nice, medium speed... I hope they don't t close, like what has been rumored...

I played my last round of golf for the year here. This is my 1st time here. The course is a Resort course, so the layout seems very playable. I did enjoy my round. Winter conditions in effect. Course did drain well, because the previous day, there was a big storm that past through. Rating the course conditions, the tee boxes had a lot of "Resort" hack divots. They where a bit unlevel on a few holes. The fairway was in really good condition, hence the rain that just past through, actually firm with good roll out. Rough was kept short and playable. Most bunkers where okay. A few bunkers had large puddles of water, so free drop, yes!!
The greens rolled really nice and true, and a bit fast. I liked them overall. It's a recommended track.

I'm on vacation over here in Maui, and I'm putting in a round of golf everyday. Well, I made here today, on Terrific Thursday, which is there golf rate special... $45/cart, morning tee time.
This course is in very good shape. It is a older style track, with narrow fairways and and tee lined with pine trees ?? ????.The tee boxes are firm, flat and level. No hacker divots. The fairway is firm and fast, with a lot of roll. If you get into the rough, your ball will loose energy and stop it's roll or bounce. It helped me a lot, on some pulled drives. The course has a lot of rolling terrain throughout. Some up hill, some down hill. On several holes, you will need to go up a club or two, to reach many elevated and small greens. The greens are small and firm, and may roll off the greens, into rough or protective bunkers. I'm not going to mention much on bunkers. I know the rating asks, and this will bring down any fair course review.
Overall, this is a Must Play, if you are going to Maui.

Came to Maui for vacation. Maui has a very strict covid-19 mask requirements around the clubhouse. Just like in California. Mask optional while playing. Played here this morning. I signed up for their Membership player's card, for $129, any additional golf is $39/round. Non resident rate is $99. I plan on playing at least 4-5 rounds, which equates about $57. Not bad for Hawaii golf rate. Well the course is in really good condition. The tee box is level and firm. The fairways are cut tight and firm. If you get to the outter edge off the rough (I did). It can get a bit patchy with dry dirt spots, but over all well watered. The rough is cut at a very playable level, about 1"-1 1/2". Bunkers like most courses are crap, hard and nearly unplayable. The greens are bermuda. If you've never putted on this be warned. It is very different than bentgrass. Speed was my challenge on the greens. Since I'm playing again this week. I know now. Be ready for very windy conditions, which is crucial in club selection on approach shots . The course is fun and challenging. I'll be back!

I played here Friday, POP was a bit slow, 4 1/2. Starter was very efficient. Carts are posted with your tee times, so you know which cart to load up on. Tee boxes where level and in good condition. Blue and black paired together, so I will say, I played black tees today (hahaha). Fairways are in good condition, no bare spots. The fairways slope a lot. Hit up on the rough, your ball will roll back into the center. Fairway was firm and tightly mowed. Most of the 1st cut rough was cut low, and playable. Some parts deeper into the tree line where lush and thick, and sometimes hard to spot your ball right away. Some of the holes, the fairway is narrow, and you may hit into other fairways, well I did... The bunkers where okay. Firm but playable. Greens are tricky to read. What slopes down, ball may break up hill, vice versa. Challenging, but fun to play. Too bad they put a hold on Senior Rate... They are too busy for "old farts". I would play again, just for the challenge.

I played here today, Oct 27, the day after major winds blowing through, and 2 huge fires near, in Southern California. I feel really bad for this golf course, every hole had trees either up rooted or large branches snapping off. I can not give a fair evaluation, just wanted to post to inform everybody of the devestation and damage to many trees along every hole of the course. It will take them a few days to clear most of the limbs and trunks. I would advise not to expect a clear track until Friday.

I got an early tee time today, POP was very good. They are using a starter, that really monitors tee time and groups. Seems about 10 minutes apart. It helps not to feel like the group behind your, is up on you, and rushing play. I like it! Now, to the golf course. Tee boxes are in really good shape. Level and firm , not too many divot damage. The fairway is in great shape, no dry spots or dirt patches. The rough seems to be cut to a very playable length. Bunkers??? The greens seem to be recently aerated. Greens look fantastic. They did roll a bit slow, but true. It is a definite recommend track.

The course is arreating the greens this week, so they discounted their standard green fees, which is fair. The tee boxes where level and firm, and not too many divots. The fairway was in really good condition, firm, fast, and tight. The rough was short and playable for an approach shot. The bunkers are firm but not concrete firm. The greens are aerated. The greens, are take 2, and move on. It will be nice in about 2 weeks. Fun playable track.
