Avoid under any circumstance

Played this course for the first time and would not recommend to anybody. We had a tee time of 11:14 and at 11:14 there were still 3 groups to tee off in front of us. Ended up teeing off 30 minutes late and the starter is pumping so many people onto the course we had a 5.5 hour round of golf.

The course conditions were terrible, fairways were 90% dirt and no matter where you hit the ball, you had a terrible lie. AVOID THIS COURSE.

Hard to believe

Hard to believe that the conditions could get worse than last time played. Fairways are mostly hard pan, numerous pooled water sections (are they watering dirt?), 5 some in front of us became a 6 some and no marshall was anywhere to help the situation.

Rough day

Pretty easily the worst course conditions I’ve ever played. Everywhere you hit, regardless if you were in the middle of the fairway, was dirt. The only saving grace was their greens which are pretty well maintained. Other than that, it’s hard to justify playing this course even for the low cost.

So much potential

The greens are solid for a muni. The course doesn't water so you're playing off of dirt for the majority of the round. Sad because the course has potential. Hole #3's fairway was completely dirt. No grass, just dirt.

Someone please do some maintenance

We figured it out....when most of the fairways are dirt, you don't have to cut the remaining single blade of grass.

Where are the Marshalls? We had over a 5 hour round, often with 3 groups on a hole.

City of Chula Vista should be ashamed to have their name on the course.

Two Good Things

There are two good things about this course right now.

1 - The staff is as friendly as they come.

2 - The greens roll true.

Ugh!

I could live with the dirt fairways given the price, but the slow play made me quit after 10 holes! Play was already slow, then a FIFTH player who said he was a Marshall joined the group in front of me!

Does it even matter what I write?

Same old story. Greens are the best thing here. Fairways are bare, bunkers need sand. Hey, it’s a muni.

DUMP!

As the title says, dump! If this place had grass the layout would be that much more. If I wanna play on nothing but dirt I'd go to the desert and kick rocks. I'll give it 2 thumbs up for being the most ghetto course in San Diego. Pretty sure most of the people who play here couldn't get a tee time anywhere else or just couldn't pass up the price! Chula Vista spending to much time and money trying to make the bayside look like a diamond surrounded by trash and forgetting about everything else!!
