Played 36 on 4/19/12. Pretty much can echo the comments of everyone else who has played recently, the course is in great shape. This without question is one of the best run public golf facilities in southern cal. Yes, they do have a bit of a cart shortage right apparently due to the fact they are getting all new carts in a few weeks. That said, its a fairly flat course, and an easy walk for 18, we only wanted a cart for the 2nd 18. The greens yesterday were as fast as I can remember playing here so I mixed in a few bombs with a few 3 putts. Was able to par the diabolical 18th into a 2 club wind to finish our 36 yesterday. Can't think of a better way to finish a great day of golf.

Walked @ Twilight yesterday. Course is in great Goose Creek conditions. Crowded day on course as there was only 1 cart available when we arrived. We walked the course so it did not matter. Greens were in great shape..first and fast..hard to get any check on approach shots or chips. Some tough pin placements today...especially 8 on the back on a mound and also 16 was tucked in the back too. Great course to walk as the weather was perfect.

Pure tee boxes, fairways and firm greens with speed. That's what I got at Goose Creek. The course was in great shape, it doesn't get any better than hitting off cross mowed lush fairways. To make things even better, I finished my round in 4 hours. You gotta love that.

Just like the old Sara Lee commercial - "Nobody doesn't like Sara Lee" Well, the same can be said about the Goose. Everything about this place is wonderful. However today, because I think we were following some out or something, it took over 5 hours to play, which is not typical of this course. The greens were as quick I can recall them and made for a very fun day on the greens. The entire course is in great condition - as always! One of my favorite courses to play!

Played 4/2/12. Greens were fastest I can remember ever. Turns out, SCGA championship qualifier coming up. Course was as well manicured as always. New "Lorena Ochoa Golf Academy" clubhouse almost completed at west end of driving range.
Mens room by 12th tee out of paper towels - can't remember the last time that happened. Bees swarming around trees to right of 15th fairway. Go to their redesigned webpage and check out the 'Tagline' contest to win free golf for a year.

Played this afternoon, showed up early to warm up on one of the best maintained ranges in southern california and huge putting green. Guy in the pro shop was nice and paired me up with a twosome. The course is in amazing shape, every tee box is level, fairways are like carpet and you won't see any bare spots in the rough even between holes. Rough was cut at about 3 inches, sand was soft and plentiful even in fairway bunkers which there are many of. Greens were punched 2 or 3 weeks ago and are almost fully healed but are very playable and receptive, should be perfect in another week or 2. This course isn't very difficult but afternoon wind definitely makes it harder. I've also noticed you can kind of see the progression of difficulty as you play through the course. As each hole goes by bunkers start to get bigger and and more well placed, greens get a little more difficult, then a couple trees in the middle of the fairways and the longest holes on the course play into the wind. Then comes the 18th hole. It is as difficult as it is intimidating, dogleg right with water all the way up the right side so even if you have a great drive and hit fairway you still have to face water on your second shot. The only plus to hitting your approach shot is the wind is coming back at you and slightly west to east so you get a little help keeping your ball away from the water and a little visual plus on your approach shot look towards the club house and Goose Creek is trimmed out of some bushes. After the round cart attendants cleaned our clubs and asked about the round. Goose Creek is always a great experience and I hope to play here more often. If you haven't been there do what you can to get out there. You will not be disappointed.

Nothing to say about this place but "Wow!". Excellent from top to bottom. An absolute "must-play" if you've never been here.

Played 3/20/12 and again 3/26/12. Conditions were the usual first class. Was particularly impressed by how well the course had drained from the heavy rains on Sunday 3/25. Some changes I noticed since last visit. New PA system to call people to the first tee is a bit too LOUD!! You can hear it just about anywhere on the golf course. More signage around the cart paths including new yardage information boards at each tee. Did I imagine there were more ballwashers the first time I played only to find them missing the second visit? New cartpath arrangement at the 18th white teebox. Some new construction at the far end of the driving range - golf school facility perhaps?
Greens were recently spiked and sanded and are almost back to normal. Cart girl in evidence multiple times. Pond scum removed/disappeared from lake on 18th and evidence of new aeration system. Still too many coots on the course. And lots of waterfowl too (LOL)
Goose Creek remains at or near the top for quality golf experience in Riverside county.

Braved the rain and played 3/25 as part of a church outing. Aside from the weather, all was great.
Service: great until we got to the first tee. I had asked ahead of time if they needed a pairing list, and they said just have people pay and head to the first tee when our group was called. We were called well before our tee time (12:30pm) and that was great. Except the starter didn't seem to have a clue. He kept radioing back to ask how many people paid. I asked if he wanted the receipts, at first he said no, then he changed his mind. I felt he was sort of rude and was kind of accusing us of not paying...other than that, service was good.
Tee box: very lush and level. In great shape
Fairways: Like carpet. Very few unrepaired divots. All in all, very very good shape.
Rough: Long and sort of tough. Very nice though
Bunkers: in decent shape.
Greens: Probably the worse part because they just punched in about a week ago. Before the rain started coming down, it was pretty fast and bumpy. No shots would hold. Then the rain came and slowed them down a bit.

All in all, the course was in really really nice conditions.
