Staff service needs improvement

The kids working the pro shop needs to be more professional. I had to ask several times for a cart key even though my tee time was 5 minutes away. Sent me outside then back inside. Little frustrated

Nice forgiving course for working on your game

Course is in decent shape considering it’s winter. Greens are fair and not particularly difficult. Most holes are pretty wide open and bunkers are in much better shape than they were a decade ago when I last played here. No complaints about pace of play, although I did have one of the earlier tee times so hard to say (it was also during a holiday week). Rates were higher than usual but usually they are reasonable, maybe a tad bit pricier than you would want from a course of this caliber. It’s definitely one of the less challenging courses in the inland empire so great for high handicappers like myself to work on game improvement without getting demoralized if you miss too far left or right.

Course in Good Shape

We played at 6:43 the first time of the day. The starter was nice to allow my wife to play also.
It was NOT busy even though they were charging holiday rates. We finished in under 3 hours. There was one group ahead of us and one group behind. The group behind was very slow.
The greens were in really good shape.

Rude and lazy staff, absolutely insufferable

The guys at the pro shop are rude. Don’t greet you and just dog you on entrance. Did not feel welcome from the get go. Also, when I got my cart there was cigar ash in the center. When I asked to change my cart, they allowed and I ask the guy at the pro shop if he could change my cart number to the new cart assigned on the sign off form. He said “oh yeah sure” with the most unconvincing look. Lo and behold I didn’t believe he would do it, I go in 10min later to the pro shop and find my old cart number to my name on the sign off form. I scratch off the old cart number and put my new cart number 140. Just shows they have rude and lazy staff overall. Will be last visit as management has gone downhill.

Short winter day

Since I last played here, the flys are gone.
Golf play was ok. I joined 3 other senior golfers for a nice round.
The only down sides were 1: my cart 117 steering is badly worn. Cart had a mind of its own. 2: cart paths were broken concrete or pounded down dirt.

IE gem

Over the years El Prado has gotten a whole lot better thanks to the course up keep! Staff is awesome, friendly and accommodating. I walk this course about 7 miles from the blues. Not a hard walk. Cart are decent and pace of play is good. Pro shop guys are great! Cart ladies are professional and courteous. Price is good to go! Go play prado and tell them Ted sent you.

Course in nice shape.

Chino Creek is a nice layout. The course is fast with winter conditions- but greens are always above average.
Warning: if you haven’t played here recently- they just added real sand to the bunkers- which is a welcome site. But the sand is new- and very fluffy. Every shot into it results in a fried egg lie. Hopefully it packs down a bit over time.
