Played 5/7. The course is in pretty d%mn good shape like everyone else is reporting. But I'm surprised no one has mentioned the green conditions for reals. It must have happened today, but all the greens had tracks from the mowers in them. They must have cut the greens too low because it definitely was not as smooth and free from holes as others make it seem. Don't get me wrong, i love the goose and play it at least once a month. Just a bit disappointed that the greens were not as perfect as the rest of the course. Surprising in fact.

I save the designation "a TEN" for places like Augusta National, Pinehurst Number 2, Trump National and Cypress Point....but I'll give Goose Creek a solid 8.5. If you like your golf courses green, lu... Continue »

I save the designation "a TEN" for places like Augusta National, Pinehurst Number 2, Trump National and Cypress Point....but I'll give Goose Creek a solid 8.5. If you like your golf courses green, lush, well-groomed and reasonably-priced...then this place is for you.

Played this morning, (Cinco de Mayo)...and The Goose is in as good a shape as it's been in many years. Only a very few areas of thin (or no) grass on these lush fairways. The greens are firm, roll very well and true, and hold all shots well. Even the sand traps are some of the best around!

Add to this a first-rate driving-range and practice area, a very friendly staff, a decent bar and grill for your 19th Hole experience...there's really not much more you can ask for!

People talk about Goose Creek being too "short". Find the blue-tee stones and play from the tips! It's all the golf course you will ever need. Tee boxes for all levels makes Goose Creek my first choice, mid-week or weekend!

Oh...4.5 hours for a Saturday. It could have been better. We started at 0730. The "rabbits" who got off at 0615 set a good pace and finished in under 3.0 hours...I'm not sure what the hold-up was, but there were some notable back-ups today.

This is one of the very best public golf courses for the money in Orange and Riverside county. Tee's, fairways, and rough are excellent, very lush. Geeens are good and in the last three weeks, getti... Continue »

This is one of the very best public golf courses for the money in Orange and Riverside county. Tee's, fairways, and rough are excellent, very lush. Geeens are good and in the last three weeks, getting better. A little slow on several greens, but overall very playable. The staff is friendly and seem to have a great deal of pride in the condition of their course. A great value and and an enjoyable place to play.

OK, everybody's correct, this place is very nice right now, very nice. but, two things need to be addressed, One,,, 18 is a great finishing hole, a par is a win. Two,,,, A beer or whatever on the pati... Continue »

OK, everybody's correct, this place is very nice right now, very nice. but, two things need to be addressed, One,,, 18 is a great finishing hole, a par is a win. Two,,,, A beer or whatever on the patio after the round watching those behind you splash in the lake or overcome this terrific par 4. If ya can play it soon, fun course, great staff.

Got put out for our tee time 2 hours late and right away, got into a fistfight with starter over the fact that the course was obviously in crap conditon. No, not really. Just thought I'd get your attention after the string on glowing reviews for this course lately. What can I say? Got out promptly and got to play as a two-some with my brother visiting from NorCal. As always the course was in very nice condition and the greens were medium-fast and generally rolled true. Really the perfect walking course and we did. Course was busy, but moved steadily and we got around in about 4.25 hours. Nice day, nice course, bargain green fee for all of it and to cap it off I shot a personal best today. What's not to love?

Played in a tourney on 4/28/07 at 10:30. Agree with previous posters - this course is consistently in great shape and is fun to play. Very good conditions everywhere - greens receptive but quick, and the course just looks great thruout. The fewest ballmarks on the greens that I've seen in a long time - from better followup by players here or the result of recent green aeration, but a welcome change either way. Highly recommended.

a great course that's in excellent shape, what are you waiting for?.....

Decided late yesterday that I wanted to play (a Saturday round, 4/28/07) as a single. As always, my first choice is Goose Creek. Set the alarm, got up an out and arrived at the course at 6:05 A.M.

Just so you know...it's a 50-minute drive door-to-door from Pasadena.

Seeking a "waiting list" slot .... and a couple of cups of java, I was a bit (but happily!) surprised when Jim (the ace pro-shop starter) asked if I was "ready to go now?"

Whoa! I barely had time to put on my shoes. Tee'd off at 6:20 A.M. I think we were second-off.

With no warm-up - the first three holes were a disaster. Double-bogey, bogey, double-bogey and one lost ball. Aaarrgh!

(Note to self: Go to the Starbucks on Limonite, no matter how early it is!!)

Settled down and shot my normal 43-42=85.

But here's my real reason for posting this feedback:

THREE HOURS AND TWENTY MINUTES TO FINISH THE ROUND, FOLKS!!

That's right! THAT'S how long it SHOULD take to play a round of golf at Goose Creek!!! Not five-and-a-half hours of painful, "hit the ball, wait ten minutes, hit the ball again...wait some more" golf! But a totally enjoyable, no-waiting, "ready golf", go right to your ball and hit it round!

What a pleasure!!

The course is in great shape, as always. The fairways are as lush and as green as I've ever seen them. The greens, although bery pretty to look at, were noticeably slower than the last time I played here - but they are still very nice - perhaps some are still a little bumpy. You had to give the ball a good rap on longer putts to get the ball to the hole. If I had hit any putt at Robinson Ranch that hard - I would have rolled into the next county.

Pin-placement on #2 (par three) was punishing. Right at the crest of a slope. Bad choice by the greenskeeper!

Other than that...NO complaints!

Best way to spend a little over three hours on a Saturday I know of!!

Oh....fixed waaaay too many extra ball marks on the greens this morning. Come on!! If you're a good enough golfer to HIT the green, you're a good enough golfer to fix your own ball marks!!

Can I get an "Amen"??
