Golf
  • Diamond Valley Golf Club
    The design features sweeping elevation changes captured within a wide-open links look. The greens, which are well-protected by sand bunkers, are fairly hard and roll fast. One of the more challenging holes is #12, a 611-yard, par 5, which features a two-acre sand bunker guarding the left side.

  • Hemet Golf Club
    Hemet Golf Club features a championship, 18-hole golf course designed by architects Lee Schmidt & Brian Curley, and opened in 2003. The course is situated in the foothills of the Hemet Valley, and there are spectacular views of the San Jacinto Mountains throughout the property. The gently rolling fairways are relatively wide open, with very few trees to obstruct shots. However, several holes are lined with tall fescue on this "links meets the mountains" style course, calling for accurate shotmaking and proper club selection. As Hemet plays into the foothills the elevation changes, making for some interesting shots.
  • Seven Hills Golf Club
    This course is fairly flat, and most enjoyed by intermediate golfers. On of the more demanding holes is #5 because there is a sand bunker right in the middle of the fairway. There are many trees on the course that can alter your shots, and water hazards come into play on a number of holes.
