Though the three nines at Temecula Creek Inn all measure from 3,100 to 3,200 yards from the white tees, each has its distinct features and is geared to players of different skill levels. The Creek-Oaks combination avoids the mountainous Stonehouse nine and is a safer bet for higher handicappers. The Creek nine is flatter and more wide open, though straying off the fairways is sure to invite tree trouble.
Water comes into play to the left of the seventh and ninth greens.
The Oaks course is more hilly as it stretches out into the back country and requires better shot placement. The green on the par-3 third is guarded closely by water, and the ninth has water off the tee to the right as well as a pond that wraps around the back and sides of the green. Turn right and proceed a quarter mile to Rainbow Canyon Road, just past the bridge. Please read it.
