By David Luis Verdict: Worth a Visit, Book Early in the Day
Best For: Golfers who want mountain-edge scenery and real elevation change in Riverside County
Avoid If: Slow rounds bother you, or you only want to pay for perfect fairways
Last Reviewed: 2026-10-04
Eagle Glen has one number that tells you most of what you need to know: a 139 slope from the back tees. That is a lot of golf course for a public round in Corona.
This Eagle Glen Golf Club review says it straight. The setting and the design are the draw, up to 400 feet of elevation change below the Cleveland National Forest. The weak spots are pace of play and fairway condition, both of which show up again and again in golfer reviews.
Play it for the views and the closing holes, go early, and set your expectations on conditioning. The California golf club archive lists the other clubs we have scored in the state.
A course can be hard, pretty and slow all at once. Eagle Glen manages all three, and the slow part is the one to plan around.
Club Overview
Eagle Glen Golf Club is at 1800 Eagle Glen Parkway, Corona, California, in the foothills south of town and about 60 miles southeast of Los Angeles. Gary Baird designed the course, which opened in 1999. Listings split on access. GolfPass calls it semi-private, while GolfNow and others sell public tee times. Treat it as a daily-fee course and confirm membership rules with the pro shop.

What I Liked
What works here is variety. The front nine plays like a target course. The back opens up into something closer to links golf.
- Gary Baird design with par 72 and six tee sets, from 4,897 yards to 6,898 yards, so most skill levels have a fair option
- Up to 400 feet of elevation change, which gives you uphill approaches and long downhill tee shots in the same round
- A back nine that plays in a different style from the front, so the round does not feel repetitive
- Strong layout marks from golfers, with GolfPass reviewers scoring layout 4.3 out of 5 and calling the closing stretch a highlight
- Practice facilities that include a grass range, putting green and chipping and bunker area
What I Didn’t Like
The complaints are consistent, and I would not wave them away.
- Pace of play scores about 3.0 out of 5 in golfer reviews, with rounds of 4.5 to 5.75 hours reported and no marshal mentioned
- Conditions score about 3.6 out of 5, with comments about thin or dead fairway turf
- Published prices disagree from source to source, so you learn your real cost only at booking
- A 139-slope back tee set will punish mid-handicappers who play from the wrong tees
Membership & Fees
Eagle Glen does not publish a clean, dated price on any page I could read. Golf Digest’s listing shows $135 with no date. Greenskeeper’s rate page lists average weekend peak rates between $50 and $100. One undated summary shows senior weekday deals in the $39 to $45 range.
Those numbers cannot all be current. Rates here move with the day and time, and twilight starts after 2 p.m. Carts are included per GolfPass. Book through the course or a tee-time app and compare the checkout price, not the ad.
| Item | Published detail |
|---|---|
| Weekend peak | Third-party averages of $50-$100; one listing shows $135 |
| Senior weekday | Undated summary shows $39-$45; confirm before relying on it |

If you want to understand how a posted price differs from a membership cost, read golf membership cost by access type. Nearby, Tustin Ranch and San Juan Hills sit in the same Southern California value range.
Facilities & Amenities
The facilities are what you would expect from a daily-fee club with an events business.
- 18-hole, par 72 course with bent grass fairways and greens per a third-party listing, and walking permitted
- Grass driving range, putting green, and a chipping and bunker practice area
- Clubhouse with a bar and grill; sources disagree on the restaurant’s current name, so check before you plan a meal there
- Wedding and event space, listed on several venue sites
- Year-round play, with no seasonal closure
Best Time to Visit
March through May and October through November are the sweet spots. The hills are green after winter rain, the air is cooler, and the course is not baking.
July and August get hot in Corona, so book the first morning slot. Twilight rounds after 2 p.m. help with both price and heat, though a slow pace can cost you daylight.
Dress Code & Etiquette
GolfPass lists collared shirts as required, no denim, and metal spikes allowed. That last point is unusual, so check with the pro shop.
Bring a layer for early tee times in winter, when Inland Empire mornings run cool.
Who Is This Club For?
This club is a good fit if you want elevation, mountain views and a back nine with a different personality.
This club is a good fit if you are a better player who wants the back tees to test you.
Skip this one if a 5-hour round ruins your day. Reviewers flag pace of play more than anything else.
Skip this one if you need pristine turf. Several reviews mention thin fairways, and prices are not always low enough to forgive that.

Verdict & Score
I rate Eagle Glen Golf Club 4.1 out of 5. The design and setting carry it. Pace and conditioning hold it back, and price clarity is poor. How we score clubs explains the scale.
If you want a scenic, demanding round and can tolerate a slow day, play it early. If condition and speed come first, look at our Glen Ivy Golf Club review.
