A public course built into a former rock quarry in the Inland Empire, known locally for dramatic elevation changes and exposed rock faces.
This course is in our GSPro library — pull it up in any bay and play it wall to wall.
"The quarry setting gives it a visually distinctive look on-screen versus a standard SoCal parkland layout -- worth flagging to members who like a scenic bay session."
Built inside the abandoned Jensen Quarry in Riverside, which supplied marble and limestone to greater Los Angeles for most of the 20th century before closing in 1979. Dr. Gil Morgan (the tour pro) and Schmidt-Curley Design opened the course in 2000, playing holes along quarry rims, over pit lakes, and beneath sheer rock faces streaked with mineral color. Regularly cited as the Inland Empire's best public course and NGCOA's 2013 Course of the Year — a daily-fee with a setting most privates would kill for.
Photographers with a golf habit, SoCal buddies-trip planners, and mid-to-low handicappers who want visual drama with their scorecard stress.
The par-3 14th, 'Marble Falls,' is the postcard — tee shot across a quarry lake to a green set against the old marble wall. The quarry-rim stretch around it delivers the biggest vertigo per dollar in Southern California public golf.
Rated hard for a reason: forced carries over quarry pits, elevation swings, and lost-ball terrain everywhere off line. Beginners should ride, play way up, and treat it as sightseeing with clubs.
In GSPro via community build, and it's a fantastic sim course precisely because the penalty for the forced carries is a reload, not a lost sleeve. Queue it at Clubhouse when someone wants scenery — it demos what GSPro visuals can do, and the carries make great closest-to-the-pin games.
Fully public daily-fee in Riverside, CA. Premium-muni pricing — expect roughly $80–$130 depending on day and time; book online well ahead for weekend mornings.
