Weeds
Fairway ok but along the fairway the rough weeds were high and thick. Cutting weeds would hurry play up because you could find your ball sooner.
Overall okay
Course was alright, driving range sucked, greens were good, sand bunkers were rock hard. A couple holes were under construction but the bunkers haven’t been touched in a long time, they were rock hard with grass growing up in them. Overall the course was not worth the $57 I paid
What Happened
What Happened!!!! This course was one of the best courses in all of North County???? The fairways looked like they haven’t been mowed in months and there are weeds everywhere from the rough, fairways and to the sand boxes. I haven’t played there in 20+ years and was really looking forward to it but man I was pretty bummed to see the course in the shape that it was. I only gave pace of play a good score because we were the second tee time so we played quickly but it was horrible. I hope that the course goes back to the way it used to be soon.
Beat up...
This course is like your alcoholic, pervy uncle that did time for hitting his old lady. The carts are his liver. On their last leg, you’ll be lucky if you make it the whole 18. The fairways are like his 5 o clock shadow. Super patchy and hard to tell where it starts and where it ends. The bunkers are like his crusty nut rag next to the pile of Hawk magazines from 16 years ago, don’t go near them bro. The rough is like his back hair sticking out from the wife beater, it’s like 8” long in some spots and bald AF a foot away. The greens are similar to your uncles vericose calf “muscles”- bumpy and hard to look at. OMG you guys, the driving range is like his apartment...it’s kinda spooky and disorganized and unkempt, if you’re ever gonna die on a golf course-this is top 5.... all that being said, I love my uncle despite his faults, and I will continue to visit him once a year and then get mad at myself for wasting the money because he will never change.
New favorite course
This place really blew my mind. The greens were in as good of shape than your top tier golf courses. Pace of play was excellent. Staff was cool. I really enjoyed this as much as I have ever enjoyed the game. This is my new favorite spot.
Boulder Oaks
Beautiful, warm, sunny Sunday for my first visit to this course. Course conditions okay, but don’t stack up against other courses I play.
Greens in good shape, but markedly slow.
Finally, way too much waiting on every shot made for a 5-hour round!! Not sure what could be done, given the 5 par 3’s and short par 5’s, which apparently everyone believes they can reach in two!
Will definitely play it again, did like the layout, but probably on a weekday.
a farm field
I would be embarrassed to own this course. The starter and a local who joined us said to pick up our ball from the bunkers as they aren't maintained ( hard packed soil). Basically an unkept meadow fairway and rough.
Very short course. We played with a local who admitted it should be an executive course however the owner made 10, 11, 12 into par 5s with incorrect yardage (and a few par 4s that should be par 3s) so that he could achieve a course par of 70.
Hilly so balls hit left roll off the fairway right, and vice versa, so count on several lost balls. Starter apologized that fairway needs mowing and yes tons of cover that trap your ball. Never a flat putt on the greens so very difficult. Narrow fairways and lots of hidden tee shots so not great for first timers.
Our electric cart battery died approaching 14 tee so we called pro shop and lost 15 minutes waiting for a new cart.
Yardages are out by 20 yards on several holes so take a rangefinder.
No sandwiches available to buy to take out with you, only coffee and muffins and pop.
Great views of the area from various tees.
Needs work
Course was in horrible condition. Weeds everywhere in what were supposed to be fairways.
The other 1 star reviews are accurate
Course needs a lot of love. Golf carts die and are falling apart, the fairways have huge dead patches and lots of overgrowth
If you have literally no other option and want to golf, this would be the only time I’d recommend
WOW!
Sad a one foursome of clowns can ruin a round for numerous golfers. The Marshall did nothing to improve this and we walked off the course at #11. Didn’t even bother to ask for some kind of discount or refund on a future round. If these guys can’t get the group literally backing up 4-5 groups on every tee box to get off the course, they could care a less about me. Easy though, I’ll never play here again. Not gonna spend 6 hours playing a round of golf.
Deceptive Price Charged by Golfnow
The Hot Deal price did not state clearly that the rate was walking only and did not include a golf cart. I had to pay an extra $12.50 to golf course to get a golf cart. Very deceptive.
