Steele Canyon Golf Club - Canyon/Ranch
About
Steele Canyon Golf Club is a 27-hole layout designed by Gary Player that is hailed as one of southern California's best courses. The holes are divided into three nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. The Canyon, Ranch, and Vineyard nines each offer a different set of challenges. The Canyon/Ranch Course starts in an expansive canyon, climbs across dramatic elevation changes, and then wraps around an operating ranch. Free-roaming cattle wander all along the back nine. Although there are no blind shots, golfers will be faced with uneven lies and elevated greens. Steele Canyon's signature hole is the Ranch's par-4 third hole. The tee is perched 175 feet above the fairway and plays into the prevailing winds that blow from left to right. It is one of San Diego County's most memorable holes.

Steele Canyon
Great course, it’s always in good condition and challenges the amateur golfer. Great club house and some amazing views. Highly recommend this course
Exciting
Target golf on some holes. I enjoyed every second playing here.
Second time playing
Love the course but, pace of play was five hours. Very slow, the course was a little dry on the fairways but the green were green and round out nicely.
Excellent condition
Played for the first time in several years and course was in fine condition. Price for mid day during week was reasonable. Pace of ay dragged a little. But slow foresons let us through. Strong recommendation for a challenging course in good condition.
Such an amazing and fun course to play. $69 for twilight is not worth the price. $120 on weekends is insane, so many courses in way better shape you can play at that price. Still a good time tho every once in awhile
Love Steele Canyon
Fun course to play. I do wish it easier to be able play all 3 9 holes courses. It’s been a very long time since I’ve been able to play Vineyard, formerly known as Meadows. Most bunkers were okay, but there were some that needed love & a good raking.
Fun first time
For most of our group, it was their first time here. They unanimously loved the layout and course conditions and would definitely play here again. Staff was very friendly and professional. There was a five-some in front of us so it was a little slow. I assume they were allowed to play a five-some because they are members. But the day was beautiful and the course provided good challenges at every turn.
Great layout and pleasure to play. Only wished the greens were a little faster but with the hot weather probably cant cut too short
Impressive
My first time playing this challenging,, I will definitely be back.
Best overall golfing experience I’ve had in San Diego.
Great hidden gem of a course
This course was not bad, but it was not worth the green fees. Comparable to other muni course options with better greens for half the price. This course is tucked within million dollar homes and surrounded by mountains. There are (3) - 9 hole courses which I liked, but only 2 were options to be played at the time. It’s a pretty easy course if you can keep it on the fairway. I liked how almost every other tee box was elevated. Good views and scenery for those picturesque memorable golf photos. Might be tough for seniors or other players with mobility issues. Overall, I recommend to play at least once.
