Empire Lakes Golf Course, Golf course in Rancho Cucamonga, California.
Empire Lakes Golf Course is a golf course in Rancho Cucamonga, California, that was designed by Arnold Palmer and stretched across 7,034 yards. The 18-hole layout featured water hazards, hills, and varied terrain to challenge golfers of different skill levels.
From 1996 to 2016, the course hosted the Mark Christopher Charity Classic, a Nationwide Tour event that drew professional golfers. This tournament established the location as a competitive venue in the region.
The golf facility included a golf school, practice areas, and a clubhouse that became a central gathering point for local sports enthusiasts.
The course offered multiple tee positions that accommodated golfers of varying abilities. Visitors should expect hilly terrain and water hazards that require careful planning and focus.
The property was later transformed into a residential development called The Resort after the golf course closed. The first phase, called the Nova neighborhood, opened in February 2020.
