Played Green River Blue Friday July 21st at 7:30 Got out on time, POP was 4:29 which in our case was bad because we play fast. We got stuck behind this 4 some that did everything in slow motion, hit the driver, drive the cart, walk from the cart to the ball, walk from the green to the cart. I mean you could tell they were retired and had "nothing" else to do that day and it was "their time out" The guy I was riding with let it bother his game but I am proud of myself, I blocked it out and I blocked out my partners comments and just played my game, I had 2 triples but was only 11 over for the other 16 holes and shot 89 from the blues, so I was happy.
Now I like Green River and at $37 for Senior I feel it is a good value. But after playing Los Serranos the last 3 weeks @$35 Green River was a major disappointment. Fairways 11 and 12 are roped off and no carts allowed as they are trying to get the grass back, All they are is big dirt patches. The tee boxes had some hard spots where you had issues getting the tee into the ground, Fairways had allot of bare spots, I finally was not in any bunkers so no comment on those, many of the green had bare spot or fungus on something. They were not is good shape. Like I said, I really like Green River but I feel even at $37 there are better choices to go play right now.
We also had breakfast and lunch and I don't know if they felt rushed because they had a banquet or what but the food was not even close to "up to par". Over easy egg was completely hard....... Sorry...

Played Green River with a bud Saturday morning, got around in 4.5 hrs with a bit of waiting, $60 w/cart and sm bucket ... was able to make the 7:30 tee time on a Thursday. Running late off the tee about 15 min. Found course in decent shape with several greens in distress but did not really affect play, rolling medium speed with a few bumps and bruises to navigate. Tree lined fairways (plenty of shade to hide from the sun) had mostly good lies but the turf gets thin if you run one near the edges. Bunkers looked okay just dry and wispy, stayed out of them today. Overall I really enjoy the parkland layout here but only get to play it once or twice a year. Very walkable (one good hill where the clubhouse is located) but due to the heat, we used e-carts today. Good return on investment and you can usually get a tee time.

I try to play here a few times a year because it isn't too far from home (Time wise), price is right, and the pro shop generally is good about getting me out early. A pleasant overcast morning, no wi... Continue »

I try to play here a few times a year because it isn't too far from home (Time wise), price is right, and the pro shop generally is good about getting me out early. A pleasant overcast morning, no wind, not too busy so no issues with POP.

A few of the greens had some issues, but overall, they were reasonably true. Fairways were decent, some dormant areas. Bunkers were inconsistent.

While I enjoy this course, I sure miss the days when there were two courses. Some of the distances between holes are a bit excessive, but mostly there are just a number of holes on the "old courses" which I miss playing

Played GR as a solo walk on Friday 5/26. Got there around 7:45 and the starter immediately got me out with 2 singles for $23 walking rate. One of the singles was traveling on business from Chicago and the other was someone that I had met before which was nice. Good guys in the clubhouse. They always work to make sure you have an enjoyable outing. Beautiful day. No wind and sunny. Pace of play was just about 4 hours. Would have been faster but the group in front of us seem to really struggle. I play GR from time to time and it seems to be pretty much the same course. The fairways were cut real low this time. Got lots of roll out. Overall in good shape except for portions of 10 and 11. They are still recovering from the flooding that occurred. Sand traps were hard. You could easily blade the ball over the green if you’re not careful. Tee boxes were fine. Greens were rolling well but looked like a couple of greens on the front 9 were getting a fungus or something. Back 9 greens were really nice. An enjoyable layout with some elevation changes on the back and as much as I regularly play here, I always enjoy it.

Another 4 1/2 hour round but that's par for this course. You can tell rain season is gone, fairways are getting hard, no sand at all in the bunkers and rough hit and miss. Greens were at least consist... Continue »

Another 4 1/2 hour round but that's par for this course. You can tell rain season is gone, fairways are getting hard, no sand at all in the bunkers and rough hit and miss. Greens were at least consistent and close to the same speed for all 18.

Played this morning and course is in nice shape and a nice course to walk. I just wonder why I can play Goose, Oak Quarry and even Hidden Valley under 4 hours but always at least 4 1/2 here and today almost 5.

I haven’t played GR in several months even though my group has a standing tee time every Saturday morning. Since there was a tournament on Saturday, we play Sunday 4/9. Our time was 6:52 but we didn’t tee off until 7:15. Quite a few groups out there backed everything up. POP was slower than usual for early morning. 4:20 but we had good weather and had a great time. I saw the pro Art Guevara and went over to say hello. A great guy and if you are over at GR, stop by and say hi. He mentioned the aeration is over and the course should be in pretty good shape right now. He was right. Its playing pretty nice. This after holes 10 and 11 were shut down not too long ago because of mud from a nearby creek had over flowed onto the fairways during the rain storms we had. I didn’t see the damage but I heard it was pretty bad. It looks much better now however. The mud has been cleared. It gave some thin lies but it’s very playable. The rest of the fairways are in good shape with kikuyu grass giving you some good lies. Tee boxes are fine. Some are a bit more ragged than the others but they are flat. Sand traps are hit and miss. Some are hard pan while others are very nice. Just had to get lucky as to which one you were in. Not so thick rough on the front 9 but different story on the back, lush and green. Still very playable. Greens have recovered very nicely. They were a bit bumpy in spots but overall they rolled true and medium/fast. In a week they should be excellent. I still say this track plays harder than rated from the blues (71.6, 123 slope at 6635 yards). It is a fun course to play and know you will be challenged.

Played Green River on Friday Mar 24th. Had a 7:02 tee time and got out about 10 minutes early. Played from the blues. POP was good at 4:15. The fairways were very wet, no roll out, so the course played allot longer because of the wetness until the back nine after the sun dried everything out. I was not in any bunkers either fairway or green side so no comment on those. We were told all holes were open and no temporary greens. They were working on the fairway on hole 10 so the entire fairway could have been considered ground under repair LOL Most of the greens rolled really nice, then got to 17 and 18 and you could tell they were punched, really needs another week. For $37 riding for a Senior this was a good deal. This is a course where if you are a little shorter off the tee, you will be hitting fairway woods for your 2nd shot or into the green on most of the holes. Number 10 was playing 460 yards par 4 and #16 (par 3) was playing 208 yards. Like I say course plays long and if you come here your long game will be tested. Had lunch in the snack bar and service was great as usual.

All the rain we had did the course good, #10 still have some silt on them from the flooding they recieved last month but nothing severe anymore. Bunkers still hard dirt, over 4 hours, way to long when you can do Goose in under 4. Alert says aerating next week but the back nine already looked like they aerated about a day or 2 ago.
