Last time I was out there and busting McMillin’s chops (they admitted there was no plan and they had no idea what was going to happen, besides being halted), checking out the Centex ghostland, took the time to hit the tables and play Pechanga’s new course.
What a great job they did on that course. Highly recommend to any golfers out there. Expensive, so if you are a gambler, harass a casino host to get comped/discount. We paid $0 for our foursome. They are closed now, but as the area is hurting there aren’t too many people able or willing to pay $150 green fees.
I believe it’s the 5th hole, it’s on the side of the mountain with a spectacular view. Drive for show, and it is majestic. One of my top 5 golf shots of all time, watched the drive sail into the clouds with all the homes in foreclosure in the backdrop, and heard the ball hit the fairway with a thud. My normal drives are 260-280, GPS tracked it at 350.
As there was no one else out there, we each hit four drives off the box.
They did a great job, and it crushes Cross Creek and Temecula Creek. Pushes Redhawk into a distant 4th IMO.
Give Temecula 10-15 years, it will be a MUCH nicer area, and it WILL be a tourist destination. The homes the wise buy in at $50-75 sq ft range and rent out until the area is ready, will do well.
