Dos Osos Golf Club

After we arrived, our playing partners mentioned that the course may have been recently purchased after a period of disrepair. I can’t confirm that, but if it’s true, it’s reasonable to expect some rough edges. What’s not reasonable is charging $80 greens fees for the current conditions.

This course has the potential to be lovely. It’s tight, interesting, and could be a real challenge. Unfortunately, the fairways and rough were in extremely poor shape, to the point that the course felt more like a pasture than a maintained golf course. We also didn’t see a single staff member working on course conditions during our round, which made the pricing even harder to justify.

It was a beautiful day and we did our best to enjoy it, but the value simply wasn’t there. To make matters worse, the greens had just been sanded, which further diminished the experience. At this price point, players should expect significantly better course conditions.

Don’t waste your money

Tee boxes are a wreck

Fairways are the same as the rough , patchy , uncut , undefined .

Greens are shaggy and roll like an MX track .

And you’ll get to play a 5 hour round .

It is a very good layout that is in a nice place , too bad it’s in horrible shape and the locals won’t play ready golf or an appropriate tee box for their skill level.

Nor will they listen to the Marshall that spoke to them at least

Do yourself a favor , don’t waste your money .

Had a tee time for 10:12am. Get there to check in and they tell us they overbooked our time slot and had to move us to 10:21. Not a big deal. We go tee off and by the 2nd hole there are 2 groups on the same tee box. By the 5th hole there was always 3 groups at the same time on the tee box. Finished 9 holes in 3:30 hours. Made the turn to go to num 10 and there are 4 groups waiting to tee off. We turned around and called it a day. There’s no ranger enforcing pace of play. Never been to a course where there were 4 groups on a tee box at the same time. Course is in fairly good shape aside from the tee boxes. Won’t be back strictly because of pace of play and no one monitoring it.

I played here often throughout the years and was sad to see it deteriorate. It’s obvious they are doing a lot to make it the beautiful course it should be.

Decent layout but the course condition is indeed terrible as there were not many grasses on the course. Really not worth playing.

They had a sign saying if you start your tee time after 10:30am expect a pace of play of 4:45+ I have played once before with no one there and it’s worth that but getting stuck behind 3 groups of 5 wasn’t fun.

The greens now are mostly good some have not good splotches, most fairways were decent and worth finding. Overall not a difficult course but the waterfalls are nice. If your ball isn’t landing in the rough or fairway it’s gone. But if you go looking for it you will find 8 more. I would almost call this a beginner course but there are a few holes that put up a challenge. If you are +20 HC bring a lot of balls. And be bad fast.

It wasn’t the worst course but wasn’t told at check-in that I had to play the front nine twice because the back nine was closed down. All the greens were just sanded.

Tee box grass a little long. Fairways a work in progress. Bunkers great. Greens ok. Cool layout, and perfect pace.

Very underrated course, use to be in bad shape. Seems like the new team is really making some changes for the better.

After reading this course was rated the worse course in the country I was a bit bummed I booked this course. But my friends and I still went out and was thoroughly impressed how JC Golf revamped the course. definitely will play this course again

Much improved from my last outing several years ago. You can tell JC are working on the course and facilities. Excellent staff and marshals. Much improved conditions on the course, I will definitely be coming back.

Starting to look like a golf course again!

Used to play regularly (30 years ago?) and really liked it but to move out of area.

Returned ~18 mos ago before current renovation and what a mess: not much green,

chest-high weeds, even in some bunkers!!

Say goodbye to any ball off "fairway"(if you can call it that). Compared to 18 months ago, HUGE improvement!! Becoming more enjoyable again and at this pace will soon be recommending to friends.

I think the starter was pushing out groups too fast and caused some slow play. Other than that awesome course

We had a blast playing this course. Greens were pretty slow but the staff mentioned this was due to them recently taking over the course and the greens take some time to develop. Tee boxes were well kept. It’s a fun mix of holes, some are pretty narrow but others open up nicely. $60 for 18 with a cart, I’ll be coming back for sure.

This course is not bad at all. I was actually impressed on how nice it was to hit out of the bunkers. Better then mission trails and the vineyard

Dos Osos has been getting better. Since the beginning of the year when I last played DO the course conditions have improved. It's still a little rough in a couple places. Nice layout. Staff is friendly. Played mid week @ 240p and got around in 3:50. <$40 and it was well worth it.

It’s been two years since we golfed here and heard it was much better since name change and JC took over. The greens are 100% better. The fairways still have a long ways to go to make me want to come back again. I’ll stick to the other JC courses as they are way better. Not sure this should be a JC course still awful

Eagle Crest it used to be, Dos Osos it is now. JC golf has made some improvements, but still has a way to go, especially if they are going to want to charge the rates they are advertising.

Tee boxes are better, fairways are greener, greens are very nice. They raked and put some real sand in the traps now as well.
