Hidden Valley Golf Club is magnificent 😉, period. Basically every hole here is designed with hazards, as basically it's probably the most hazardous landscape I've ever played golf in, cam totally imagine the effort they put in when developing this Hidden Valley course. Particularly some holes worth the spotlights, let's start from Hole 5, 190 yards Par 3, small valley in the middle, bunker in front of the green, big slope on the right of the green, need to aim left big time, otherwise with the headwind, even your ball go straight towards the green, might still ends up in the valley by the from left to right slope. The next one will be Hole 8, also a Par 3, 170 yards to the pin 📍, beautiful lake on the right of the fairway, amazingly beautiful 😍. One characteristic here at Hidden Valley is that there's a lot BIG rocks, really BIG, kind of their theme, like in Hole 4, 9, and 10. Last but not the least, Hidden Valley is probably now the best course I've ever played in, the holes are arranged so nicely around the valley of Norco, I wonder how the owner and designer imagined their masterpiece before this happened. One more thing, when we were at Hole 14, course staffs showed up with a fully charged cart, as ours were running out of power, been playing in 200+ different courses, this is the first time, truly thumbs 👍 up !!!
The views at Hidden Valley Golf Club are truly amazing—nestled in those hills with elevation changes and scenic backdrops that make it feel special. The course itself is a tricky, challenging layout that’s fun to play once just to experience it. That said, paying over $100 (greens fees plus whatever else) for a round that dragged on for 6 hours is not worth it. The pace of play was horrible—we were constantly waiting for two groups ahead to tee off on nearly every hole. We called the marshals multiple times, but nothing improved; it felt like no one was managing the course effectively. The pro shop staff came across as indifferent and had a bit of an attitude, which didn’t help the overall vibe. On a positive note, our server in the restaurant was fantastic—super friendly and attentive. Bless her heart; she was honestly the highlight of the day and probably the only thing that kept the experience from being a total wash. It’s good to check this one off the list for its unique track, but there are plenty of other courses in the $100+ range that offer better pace, friendlier service, and even perks like free range balls to warm up. I’d skip this one unless you’re okay with a very slow, frustrating round.
Hands down the best value course in Southern California. You get stunning mountain views and a challenging, unique layout for a fraction of what you’d pay at the big-name resorts. It’s a bit of a "hidden gem" in Norco that feels much more expensive than it is. If you want a premium experience without the premium price tag, this is the spot.
Very beautiful scenic wild golf course with severe wind. When the sun goes down, there is no light, so you can't get back to the clubhouse after losing your direction.
A very fun and scenic course. The value is there for this course and has a great layout of holes. The views are amazing as well where they use the tee boxes for the views. The only downside was the greens and fringe which were not terrible but definitely not the best in the area.
