In December of 2004, the Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians purchased Soboba Springs Royal Vista Golf Club from the Honolulu based company, Waterhouse, Inc. It was always a dream of the tribal leaders to own the beautiful golf course that bordered their reservation.

Immediately, they began planning development of the golf course site to return the facility to the premier golf destination in Southern California and beyond. They contracted the services of Cary Bickler, golf course architect and disciple of Desmond Muirhead, the original golf course designer in 1966.
