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.

Challenging and fun, great value

The greens were in excellent shape. The elevations were fun and several holes were very challenging. Beginners will lose balls. Staff was friendly and amenities were great. Public welcome, family atmosphere in the clubhouse. One of my new favorites!

Great Course

Overall course is great! Beautiful views, nice layout. Golf maintenance guys are doing a great job. For the rate, I would expect a little more help from cart staff. 120 bucks for me to have lug my clubs to and from my truck. Got to course with 3 guys on their phones and back from my round to 1 guy on his phone. Overall would go back ar a cheaper rate.

Love the layout

Had a very nice time on the course, the layout is a true test of golf. The greens are in great condition playing at a 10.5. I will definitely play again when I’m back in the area.

Way too much money for what you get!

When we went to get our golf cart it was raining and they said they didn’t have any towels to dry the seat.

Never saw the golf assistant until the 13th. hole where we informed him that play was very slow and maybe he should check in on the foursome 2 holes ahead. On the 16th. hole we saw the beverage cart for the FIRST time. We also had a ball land on the green on #1 on the Ranch while we were on the green. They might want to post a sign on the tee box making people aware if they’re going for the green off the tee box. Bottom line way to slow of play.

Won’t be coming back.
