El Prado Golf Courses

The rolling hills of Chino's former dairy country provide unexpected elevation changes that transform what could have been another flat Southern California track into something with genuine character. Water hazards come into play on half the holes, demanding course management skills that separate the thoughtful players from the grip-it-and-rip-it crowd. While the conditioning won't rival the private clubs 20 minutes west, the strategic design rewards local knowledge and punishes careless approach shots with enough bite to keep your handicap honest.
