The tee boxes were all in good condition with the par three holes showing a little wear. You will find a few different types of grass and weeds on any of the tee boxes. The rough has retreated some but once you find your ball you can put a fairly good stroke on it. The fairways are continuing to fill in with the warmer weather and remain green with less than average roll due to their dampness. The traps on most of the holes that surround the greens now have ample nice white sand but are starting to look a like shaggy around the edges. The fairway traps are still compact dirt with pebbles and rocks. Greens remain the best conditioned part of the course with all having complete coverage. The greens are rather large on most of the course and fairly soft compared to years past. The speed of the greens were slowed by the continued morning showers but rolled true. They also held shots very well checking up and backing up on well struck shots. The 4.5 hour round seemed slow but there was a group ahead that had two holes open and was holding up PLAY. We did tell the marshal when he came by on the tenth hole but obviously nothing was done. Weekend rounds can be painfully slow at this course but I shouldn't complain about a 4.5 hour round.

The tee boxes were well worn but clear of the broken tee minefields usually found. The rough remains to be more than an anchor for most of the groups. The Creek nine rough was trimmed down to an acceptable level but was still more than one would expect on a busy public course. The rough on the Stonehouse nine is still out of control with grass clippings laying on top of the already 6-8 inch long wet grass. Almost impossible to find anything in it let alone hit from it!! The fairways were all in very nice condition with good lies and not too many unfilled divots. The fairways were a little damp in places so not much roll. The sand traps remain damp and not raked by the maintenance crew or the golfing public. The greens were all in good shape with a few too many ball marks on some holes. The speed of the greens remains much slower than usual and adds to the challenge of scoring well. The damp and muddy sections on the Stonehouse nine had been addressed and was a work in progress on the 11th hole. The overall offerings of Temecula Creek remain well above average. » Close Played an early morning Sunday round Creek/Stone in four hours behind the Speed Golfers.

Not a fan of running between holes but they were. The staff and carts are top level. Tee boxes were all in pretty fair shape with a few being a little shaggy. It was nice to see that someone had picked up all of the broken tees which usually litter the tee boxes. The rough is Out of control again with many groups searching for their balls on every hole. The grass clippings on top of the long, thick and wet rough was painful for everyone. It affected the pace of play negatively and was frustrating if you were in it. The fairways had total coverage but a few holes were beyond damp with muddy sections which should have been GUR. You could not walk across those places or play your ball from them. Not sure what was going on with all the water. We found a sprinkler running on the back of the first hole on the Stone nine that was really doing damage? There were a few holes that had obvious irrigation/drainage work in progress with trenches cut along the cart paths. The traps were damp and had not been raked in at least a day or two? I even found a couple greenside traps that had no rakes in them. The greens were in nice shape but a little slower than usual and some had lots of ball marks. The course and facility are always busy which is great to see. » Close Early am five hour Sunday round. The tee boxes were all in need of a good trim but did have total coverage from start to finish.

The sections of rough that you will find on some holes is not very thick or long. Hitting from the rough was not difficult when I found myself in it. The traps are mostly well manicured with about half of the holes now having nice white sand. The fairway traps are still hard packed dirt/sand with pebbles to watch for. The fairways are very good on some holes and hit and miss on others. The nice fairways have great coverage with few thin places. There are a few holes where the fairways are a bit thin and you might find your ball sitting down on dirt. The greens were in much better condition with great coverage and not too many ball marks. The good shots checked up and the greens appeared to have been rolled finally. The speed was much closer to what is usual for this course which was nice to see. The rates and staff make for a good golf experience. The course conditions continue to slowly improve. » Close Mid morning 4.5 hour interesting round.

Staff is always super friendly especially on course. The carts and practice facilities are the best. Tee boxes were all level with nice coverage and plenty of divot mix. The rough was near perfect and just thick enough to stop offline shots. You were able to locate and hit from the rough with pretty good success. There are forced carries on many of the holes which makes having the perfect rough helpful. The fairways were in the best condition I've seen them in over the years of playing here. There was complete coverage with not a thin or dry spot from start to finish. The length of the fairway turf was great and made hitting from it so nice. The bunkers here are all manicured perfectly with just the right amount of white fluffy sand to hit from. The greens today were slower than I've ever encountered but very consistent. They are all very large and were holding shots well with not much roll out. There are many that have elevation changes with lots of slope which can be challenging for some. The weather started out with 25 mph winds changing direction from hole to hole. Luckily the winds died out at the turn then the heat came on up to 97F at the end of the round. The winds do usually blow on this side of the valley but generally don't pick up until the early afternoon. The forced carries and water features make for the greatest test of shot making in the area. The views and course conditions always make a round here enjoyable. The rates are equal to experience with what is offered in the local area. Always easy to recommend! » Close
