El Prado Golf Course - Butterfield Stage Course

El Prado Golf Club’s Butterfield Stage Course in Chino, California, sits in the Inland Empire as an affordable, no-frills 18-hole layout that’s friendly to a wide range of players. Designed by Harry and David Rainville in 1976, the Butterfield Stage Course sits on flatter ground compared with the adjacent Chino Hills Course and offers four tee options ranging from roughly 5,507 to 6,568 yards. The traditional, mostly open design features generous landing areas, mature trees lining some fairways, and a handful of water hazards that threaten par on several holes. Afternoon winds add a test even on seemingly easy holes. Greens are receptive and true but not overly fast, rewarding thoughtful shot making. The course is notably walkable, with pace of play often superior to area norms. Practice facilities include a grass driving range and three pitching/putting greens; the clubhouse houses a shop and a snack bar with outside seating. Unique feature: named for the historic Butterfield Stage line. For tee times, book via GolfWithBrio. Address: 6555 Pine Ave, Chino, 91710-9163. Par 72, 6,508 yards, slope 116, rating 70.6.
