Calimesa Country Club (Closed)

The San Bernardino foothills claimed another victim when this 18-hole public track shuttered, leaving area golfers without one of Inland Empire's most underrated mountain layouts. Rolling terrain and mature oak groves created natural doglegs that rewarded course management over raw distance, while elevated tees offered glimpses of the San Jacinto peaks that made even routine approach shots feel consequential. What made this place special was how designer routing worked with—not against—the native chaparral landscape, creating risk-reward moments that stuck with you long after the round.
