Chula Vista Golf Course

This is the worst golf course I have ever played at. The greens are slow and your ball bounces like it’s in a pinball machine when you putt. 4 of the fairways are mostly dirt and or mud. Tee boxes are terribly uneven and the pace of play was 3 hours for nine holes. If you rent a cart strap in because it’s a ROUGH ride due no cart paths besides in between tee boxes and greens and the hundreds of holes in the fairways and in the “rough”. Do not waste your money here.

This place is a joke. Worst golf course in all of San Diego. I drove all the way from santee which was a 30 min drive to play this course. I had a tee time at 12:10 today. I called to let them know I was running 5 minutes behind. I spoke to Gabriel and told him I would be there and I would skip a hole and catch up to my group. He said ok. I show up and he tells me I will have to wait behind a group of 8 players which is un heard of…. due to the fact he sent another person in my spot at my tee time that I reserved days before.

We had gotten a good deal on the round through golf now,had that not been the case. The three stars for value,would've been lower.. When we walked up for our 11:46 tee time and saw the beverage cart driving around,we passed on purchasing drinks at the 19th hole.We were later disappointed to never see the beverage cart later on the course.

On to the course, the 1st hole fairway was being punched by a tractor,not a good sign, as all the fairways were pretty rough. The bright spot were the greens,which were in great condition. The sand bunkers were nice and soft,as I found myself in seven of them. The pace of play,was fine.

If they can bring back the fairways to good condition,we will happily come back

The clubhouse & grounds crew were friendly and helpful.

We never saw the beverage cart operating during our 11:45 - 3:15pm round

The fairways were in pretty poor condition,however the sand traps and greens were in very good condition.

Fortunately the weather was nice outside,otherwise with no inside 19th hole,we would've had to spend out money on drinks and snacks elsewhere.

6 hours to get through a round. Forget this course!!!!

The title says it all. 6+ hours to finish a round. This is the worst course in San Diego County. It took us 40 min to get through the first 2 holes because they stacked too many tee times. It was so bad, plus they don’t have a Marshall that comes around at all to tell groups to speed up. I will never play here again, even if it’s free.

The golf cart are suppose to be replaced October/November, much needed! Hole #3 is a muddy mess, but always has been! The course is in its best shape in months with what the have to work with. It’s in a river bottom and takes a beating when we get measurable rain. Overall, better than it’s been in a long time! Continue to improve. Staff is always great🤩

Starting out the Carts are in poor condition mine the steering wheel pulled right all day. Most tee boxes were chewed up…the fairways were more dirt and mud than grass. So even from the middle I’m still hitting off solid ground and resulting poor shots and a terrible experience. The greens were slow and seemed to be patchy with different grasses causing inconsistent play. I will not be returning to this course. If I could have demanded my money back I would have.

People were great. Fairways were in terrible conditions. Several holes with majority in dirt with no grass. Well managed, poorly maintained.

It’s definitely a good bang for your buck. The greens are in really good shape and bite pretty well. The pace of play can definitely get really bad sometimes. Especially when there is a tournament. I’ve expressed in the past that they should be charging more for the tournament, and have 2-3 less tee times for the public on those days. The average round time here is about 5 hours if not a little longer. There are a lot of areas in the fairways that should be marked for ground under repair but are not.

The next thing is that they need a starter. It’s never clear on who is up next on the tee box.

The staff are pretty friendly and helpful when running into issues at the course, but I don’t think a lot of this is avoidable.

Best time to go here is during the week days.

You will be disappointed. Worst shape golf course I had ever played. Almost a 5 hour round too! Just play elsewhere.

Save your money ! Fairways are dirt patches mixed with dead dried out grass DO NOT GO PLAY THIS COURSE AND PAY 50$ like I did

The staff was very nice, but the course needs a LOT of work. The fairways have huge patches of dirt and are not well maintained on the front 9 holes, however the back 9 were a little better but still need to be better maintained. The greens were okay, but they were very slow. The pace of play was very slow, and the group behind us were extremely rude and were yelling at my group and tried to pick a fight with my Dad because the pace of play was slow and they thought we were the ones holding up the game when we had 2 groups in front of us that were backing the course up. The Marshall’s didn’t do anything. All in all, I will say this will be my first and last time playing at this course. I wanted to try a new course, but this was not the course for me.
