With the new clubhouse has come a problem with kitchen/desk staff.
Checking in at 7AM I was told there was no cook available for the advertised
breakfast burro to help start my day/round.
On the 9th teebox I called the clubhouse to order my b-fast and never received
an answer. Consequently, when I "made the turn" I put in my order and 10mins
later and one group let thru I received my food.
With no scheduled breakfast cook and no desire to take phone orders the two
young women try to be as helpful as possible acting as wait/starter staff.
Would someone there please manage the process and set some procedures
to accommodate the guests going thru the clubhouse??

Played on 12/23/14. Haven't played here in 2 or 3 years. Wow! What a transformation! I actually hesitated to write a review because I'd like to keep it a secret. Fairways and greens are in great condition. Pace of Play very good. The new clubhouse is nice and the staff from the starter to the cashiers were friendly and efficient. Our only criticisms were that 1. the driving range was closed on Tuesday, 2. the traps were "hard sand", 3. the first cut rough was a little too long, making it difficult to find the ball, and 4. several of the ball washers on the back 9 had loose lids making washing a little challenging. Almost like a prankster had removed the screws. Other than those minor problems, it was a thoroughly enjoyable round. We normally play at Sierra Lakes but due to the $78 holiday green fees we opted to play at YV for $32! And glad we did. We'll be back!!

This is a course I've taken to task here for poor conditioning and management. Hadn't played here for a while but our group took a flyer and decided to come out. What a pleasant surprise. Looks like there's new management and they've turned a corner here. The course is in as good condition as I've seen in years. Greens are nice, not premium resort quality but very very good for what you pay. Medium fast, and accepts approach shots and pitches nicely. Fairways are nice and green, bare here and there with some muddy spots but over all quite playable. Tee boxes on par 3s are chewed up reflecting heavy play. Best part is a $99 for 3 rounds any time deal they are running. I've always liked this course design and the fact that it is rarely ever windy here even if it's blowing the house down anywhere else in SoCal. It's also nice that they've opened up a real clubhouse so we can quaff a couple of beers after a round in a nice room and catch the end of the morning football games today. The "foot golf" flags and buckets sprinkled around the course are a bit off putting, but whatever. Hope it makes them some coin. Keep up the good work guys!

Played 9-13-14. Course has come a long way since the last time I played here. Fairways have filled in nicely but there are at least 4 different types of grass. Greens were soft and held well but were a bit slow. Tee boxes are still chewed up but overall the course is much improved. The new clubhouse which we had been told would be open in August is still not complete. Now they say October. The course is not worth full price but online prices make it a fair deal.

Played 5-25-14. The course is in the worst shape I have ever seen. Free is more than it is worth. For the time being I would say to stay away. The greens are the only redeeming factor. The customer service is acceptable but the negatives far outweigh the positives. I can only hope that it will come back around but the fairways are so bad I would say they are unplayable. STAY AWAY!

Went to play at yucaipa 5/25 for a gk match . first time there.I had read all the bad reviews about this course, but it turned out to be better than I had expected. The practice area is pretty nice, the mats seem to be new. Practice greens were great. The tee boxes were in bad shape.. fairways were decent in most spots, a lot of bare areas, bunkers were rocky. Greens were mostly nice,a lot of ball marks. A few greens were bumpy. Golf carts are really slow. Not many yardage markers. Sprinklers were hard to find specially marked ones. I would play here again but only if it was under 25$

Played golf yesterday and was not aware that they had just aerated the greens. Course is still fun, but if you like good greens, I would wait a few weeks before playing there. When the greens are back, they are some of the toughest in the area.

Played here on 01/10/14 as a last resort.. I would of been better off staying home. POP as always was horrible, and the course is not in good shape to top it off.. ended up playing the front 9 twice. Rocks in bunkers, greens beat up pretty good.. just not an enjoyable outing at all. No plans on going back.

First thing I noticed driving up is the new clubhouse they are building, more on that later.
I really enjoy the layout here, good amount of water hazards, good placement of the bunkers and great design of the greens, but overall I come away disappointed more often than not.
On the first hole I hit a horrible approach shot into the bunker, just as I was digging in to hit my shot, I noticed a rock about the same size as two fingers on your hand, right in front of my ball. The bunkers here have plenty of sand now since the last review, and plenty of rocks, mostly the size of small-medium size marbles. I was in at least 3 bunkers and they were all like this, good sand, full of rocks.
T's are not over seeded, dormant, with signs of thinness and bareness coming through already.
Fairways are dormant with OK lies, I was probably being over generous when I rated them a 6.
Greens are running medium-ish speed, I did notice some fungus issues on at least one green, #2 comes to mind, great design though.
5+ hour pace, thankfully the holidays are over, waited on every shot but not to long. The guys ahead of us, liked to park between their balls, good if it was only 20 yards, bad if it was 80. How about drop your partner off at his ball, go to yours and hit, return and pick up your partner? Just a suggestion. Marshall came out around the 5th hole and pace picked up, so thanks for that, but it was pretty packed with no real relief.
The rough around the greens are not over seeded, it looks like this- a fist size clump of grass, followed by a few inches of thin grass, than another fist size clump x 100, not ideal for chipping.
I am not a big clubhouse type of guy and I couldn't help but think, why are they spending money on a clubhouse, when that money is sorely being missed on the maintenance of the course.
