TEMECULA, CA – Journey at Pechanga recently won state and national recognition in three seperate golf course rankings. The rankings in NBC’s GolfPass 2024 Best Public California and Best Public U.S. Golf Course were released this month, and Journey at Pechanga ranked number one in the Top 25 Public Golf Courses in California list, and at the number five slot in the Top 50 U.S. Public Golf Courses.
GolfPass examined nearly 300,000 golfer-submitted course reviews throughout 2023 and the winners in each category rose to the top of the leaderboards. In GolfPass reviews, golfers are asked to rate a host of course factors including design, conditioning, but also value, off-course amenities and service.

It’s a great feeling to see our guests notice and take the time to write amazing reviews for us.”
