Greens Aerification Schedule April 21st – 23rd 2025
Dear Members and Guests of Vista Valencia Golf Club,
Part of the required golf course maintenance is the necessity to aerify our greens in the Spring and Fall. We have scheduled a full aerification for the dates listed above. Best management practice is to remove plugs from the greens and fill them with fertilizer, sand, and seed. This process allows the roots to penetrate deep in the sand and promotes healthy turf grass on our greens. Roots grow deeper with the sand and nutrients creating an environment for the grass to survive the extreme heat of the summer.
The greens will be sandy and bumpy for a period of time and since it is springtime, new grass germinates very quickly. Please make a note of this when booking your tee time. We appreciate your patience and understanding during this period.
- Front Nine Vista Monday April 21st
- Back Nine Vista Tuesday April 22nd
- Chica Course Tuesday / Wednesday April 22 – 23

Driving Range is open with no restrictions, Cart Path Rules - as we dry we will open up more of the golf course to carts. No carts near the Pico Wash (we have had customers get stuck driving in mud near the wash). Cart Path only on all Par 3's, do not drive over curbs. Please call the golf shop if weather is in doubt.
When it rains, the golf course and driving range is on limited service. The Driving Range is limited to 150 Yards or less. We must do this as the Pico Canyon Wash goes through our driving range and floods the driving range. While the golf course drains well, it is still slippery and dangerous on the grass. We restrict golf carts to cart path only during periods of rain. Additionally, the creek area on the Vista Course is off limits as it may damage our new Yamaha Cart Fleet.
New Cart Fleet: As you may know, we have purchased a new cart fleet of Yamaha cars. Each cart is comfortably appointed with upgraded seats, windshields, and GPS with distances to the middle of the green. To assist us with golf course conditions and pace of play, we have established areas that either have limited access and/or no access. Some areas on the course are designated as areas for carts to not have access. If you have a disability, please contact the golf shop to make arrangements directly so you may have additional access to the golf course with our fleet. Please note that there are areas that will be off limits for all customers and we may not be able to accomodate your request to have full access to everywhere on our property.
If you are unsure about our hours and/or conditions. Please feel free to call the golf shop to check on our conditions at (661) 253-1870.
Winter Hours
Winter Hours for Driving Range: Last Range Ball Sold is 7:00 PM, Range Closes at 8:00 PM, Gates Close at 8:15 PM
CLUBHOUSE REMODEL
As you may have noticed, we are continuing with our much-needed Clubhouse improvements by renovating our club house restrooms. We will be installing new sewer lines, new toilets, and new sinks along with new tile and flooring. Currently, we are in Plan Check Review with the City of Santa Clarita since December 2024 and awaiting approval to repair our restrooms. Unfortunately we do not control the timing of their review and/or approvals. In the interim, we have lighted restrooms in a trailer on the outside in our Tournament Pavilion with electricity and running water.
RESERVATION SYSTEM CHANGES AND WAIT LIST IMPROVEMENTS
Our reservation system through our website is managed by Club Caddie software. We use reservations to hold your tee time for you and your guests to start at a specific time. Our commitment to you, barring unforeseen circumstances like rain and or frost, you will be on the tee checked in at your tee time and ready to tee off. To help us continue to provide that service, we need commitment from you as well, showing up with the number of players you reserved at least 20 minutes before your tee time, checked in and ready to tee off on the first tee at your tee time. Showing up late for your tee time we cannot guarantee that we can get you out.
Changes to Club Caddie Reservation System for Vista Valencia:
Here's what's new:
Credit Card Guarantee for All Tee Times starting 04.01.25
To secure your bookings, all tee times will require a credit card on file. Existing customers without a saved payment method will need to update their profile online. Go to the following to update your profile: Customer Portal Log In
Online Tee Time Cancellation - Current
You can now cancel tee times directly online! Cancellations via phone calls will no longer be accepted. To cancel your tee time, log into your customer portal and look for My Tee Times, select Future and select the tee time you wish to cancel. For any other changes, customers are directed to email the GM at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. All cancellations and modifications to your reservation are required before noon on the day prior to your reservation.
Pre-Booking Fee for Fridays, Weekends, and Holidays - Effective 04/01/25
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (and Holidays) tee times will require a 25% non-refundable pre-booking fee. This fee will count towards your Green Fees when you check in. This fee is non-refundable for cancellations made within 24 hours of the reserved time.
Tee Time Waitlist via Noteefy - Currently available on website, enroll on bottom left-hand corner to Noteefy.
We've partnered with Noteefy to provide a waitlist system. If your preferred slot becomes available due to a cancellation, you'll be notified. You'll be able to join our waitlist by creating a profile on our website.
No-Show / Short-Show Policy
A No Show / Short Show Penalty fee will be charged for no-shows and or short shows to encourage timely attendance to our golf club. We are holding your tee time for you and expect you to show up with the number of players you reserved or expect you to cancel in advance online or in writing 24 hours in advance so we can let someone else have that tee time. Not cancelling your reservation online and or emailing general manager (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) in advance will be subject to a No Show / Short Show Penalty Fee of $20.00 per player. If you show up with fewer players than you reserved, and we are able to fill that slot with a stand by player, we will waive the Short Show Penalty Fee for that slot.
These changes aim to ensure a smoother experience for everyone. Thank you for your understanding and continued support!
