Went out this morning at 9:30 and eating lunch at 1:30, a little over 3 1/2 hours. Not bad for a Friday. Greens were quick but held shots if hit correctly and bunkers were a mix of good and bad. I was... Continue »

Big thanks to dconnally and HmtGolfGuy for their spot on reviews of Eagle Glen this week, it helped me pick my Friday course to play and was sure glad I made the 50 minute drive. If you've played here you know the customer service is top notch, they have a fantastic clubhouse and restaurant, and a nice grass range ... far and away better than any Riverside area golf course for it's price range. The best part is that now, with a new GM that's been there 5-6 months I hear, the course is on par with the rest of the facility. There is not one complaint I can find about the Eagle, none (read dconnally's review). There are a few dirt areas in a few fairways but they took the time to mark them as GUR ... few courses do that anymore. Major kudos. Greens were cut and rolled to perfection with very few unrepaired pitch marks, as good as any greens I've played on this year. The bunkers I visited were well maintained but I did see my playing partners in a couple that were semi-crusty, so I guess that could be one noticeable flaw right now. The course is a very aesthetic and challenging layout from the blacks with some dramatic elevation changes that begin on the very first hole. Very large greens without the WTF undulations (except maybe #15) you get at the Retreat which is just over the hill, and it's a much more manageable course which is good for mid to high handicapers. We got around in 4.5 hours (their goal for a round of golf) with minimal waiting, the marshal was herding the cats best he could. Some good deals right now, mine was an email special: $35 w/cart and an opportunity to save a few bucks on food and beverage which I didn't take advantage of due to the drive home (70 minutes). I would say that right now, this is easily the best deal I've seen in SoCal, even better than the $44 rate on the Babe at IH. Their weekend rates can get a bit pricey but deals are out there, just got to look. For me, the drive is the only pain but EG is worth it. Highly recommended.

Played today in just under 3 1/2 hours. Course is coming around but will be awhile until it is real nice. There are several fairway bunkers being worked on but marked GUR so it doesn't hurt your score... Continue »

So I heard from one of the cart girls that there is new management in place here. Old GM gone. From her point of view, she and her colleagues are more 'conservatively' adorned, so if that is what brings you here then I am sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

That said, people take over golf courses for one of two reasons - either to drive them into the dirt and redevelop the land as something else; or, to run the place better! The latter option appears to be the case. There is plenty of cosmetic/superficial evidence of a new sheriff being in town: there are new cart direction signs all over the place; the old 'black-gold-white-jade' tee order has been replaced with a more standard 'black-blue-white-red' config; and you can now drive on the first fairway! Gone, I suppose was the old excuse of "we keep it cart-path only so the wedding shots taken from the practice green have the lush background of the first fairway to them". Now your nuptials will include my tire tracks.

Then, there is also some evidence of maintenance trying to improve conditions. The fairways have been verticut recently to de-thatch them - this is welcome as the turf here is hard as rocks and thin growth-wise, so this should help promote some lushness if they add water (not sure about that part! It's dry and thin right now). Also, there are lots of gurs marked and apparently being worked on to recondition them. That said, the result is lots of bald spots - especially in the rough. It seems the old plan of growing in the rough to narrow down the fairways has bitten the dust along with cart girl tanks.

That said, course is generally playing thin and fast. It's hard as rocks throughout. It's great downwind/hill as it goes forever, but the greens will not hold unless you can fizz it in there with some spin. They are both fast but bobbly. Lots of unrepaired ball-marks and some numb-nuts walking around everywhere in the strangest, circuitous paths wearing what appeared to be soccer cleats. Tees are lush but you don't spend much time there. All the sand needs reconditioned as it is crusty, gravel-filled and usually thin with hard-packed material below the surface.

Good luck to the new owners. Let's hope they turn on the spigot. Let it flow.
