Played 4-2-08.

Course is in very good shape. Even the greens rolled pretty nice, which are usually the main downfall here. The course was marshaled excellently which helped in our 3-3/4 hour round. Play early here and you won't have any problems with time, but later in the morning tee times can lead to some very long rounds.

Clubhouse people were great and having Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra playing outside the clubhouse was a nice touch!

Played 4/1 and the course was in great shape. Greens are still a little bumpy after being punched but shaping up nice. Play was a little slow for a tuesday afternoon-be nice if the marshals would get ... Continue »

Played 4/1 and the course was in great shape. Greens are still a little bumpy after being punched but shaping up nice. Play was a little slow for a tuesday afternoon-be nice if the marshals would get people going but otherwise a good time.

Well all i can say is that the course was in great shape and had lots of fun playing it. Arrived mid morning for my tee time, and to my surprise. I was happy to see Tim there who used to be the Assistant GM at San Dimas then moved to a course in the OC. And now he is here at Sierra Lakes. Well GK members who play here get ready for a great person in the golf shop and someone who truly cares what customers have to say. To Tim welcome back to the valley and best of luck to you there.

Great course, fairly decent pace of play. Customer is better, than before but the marshalls need to be driving around the course. People driving all over where they aren't suposed to be. I wish when a... Continue »

Great course, fairly decent pace of play. Customer is better, than before but the marshalls need to be driving around the course. People driving all over where they aren't suposed to be. I wish when a course punches it greens they would notify you when you make your tee times.

first, the pros:

i really liked the layout. it was fun, not very hard if you play smart (something i can't say i do very often). one of the guys in my group hit irons off of every hole and still sc... Continue »

the cart girl was a regular mario andretti. sometimes you're lucky to see the refreshment cart once a round. we saw her no less than 5 times.

the cons:

5.5 hour round and the starter didn't have an accurate list of start times/groups. we were 1/2 hour late to tee off and waited on every hole. after reading other reviews, i see this isn't uncommon. i'd say this isn't the greatest choice for a weekend round. weekdays are probably better (unless you don't mind 5-1/2 hour rounds).


the greens were beat to h*ll. ball marks everywhere, not a lot of ettiquette apparently (not the course's fault really). there was also a lot of what i believe is called "fairy ring" in the greens - a disease of clover shaped dark patches you sometimes see in greens.

bunkers were very inconsistent...some were as soft and fluffy as bunkers are in florida, others were hard-packed and wet from errant sprinklers ( a pet peeve of mine, it's certainly not endemic to this course).

no clubhouse should ever have rap playing loudly in the pro shop, and the staff need to be more professional. they were a bit too casual about stopping their conversation to come to the counter to greet our foursome.

bottom line: i'd avoid it on the weekends, course condition is OK, not great, especially the greens, they need work. staff were a bit immature, but not rude. the cart girl should get some kind of greenskeeper award. layout was worth another look, but during the week.

course was in great shape, minor divot damage ond most of it wasnt repaired, but pair for this course. They sure need a starter the first tee was a cluster and their was no one to keep groups from ju... Continue »

course was in great shape, minor divot damage ond most of it wasnt repaired, but pair for this course. They sure need a starter the first tee was a cluster and their was no one to keep groups from jumping out on the back nine in frount of groups trying to make the turn. Other than that and some of their prices in the club house were exorbanant (sp?) but course was in great shape...

Played after the rains and course held up well, course is in great shape, greens are smooth and fast.

Played 1/03/08 before the rains came. Have played here several times before and played in rare windless conditions. This is a wide open track, but she protects herself with slate fast greens and wicked tee placements. Traps were inconsistent with some fluffy sand and others hard pan. Only major complaint was par 3 hole #6...no rakes in any trap. We got off at 7:15 so were able to play in under 4 1/5 hrs. This course is well worth a look.

Sierra Lakes is a good golf course for all around fun! The greens need to be maintained more often and divots fixed, but all in all a good golf course for novice to expert.
