Rating 71.8

Steele Canyon Golf Club in Jamul offers three unique nines: Canyon, Vineyard, and Ranch. Gary Player designed all 27 holes, which are played in three different 18-hole combinations. The courses are considered some of the best golf in southern California. The Canyon/Vineyard combination starts with dramatic elevation changes and then transitions into the subtler nuances of the Vineyard nine. The hilly front nine demands accuracy and golfers should be prepared for some uneven lies. The Vineyard nine doesn't get any easier either with several water hazards and many holes that play directly into the prevailing winds. The Vineyard's sixth hole is one of Steele Canyon's hardest. This lengthy par 5 measures 582 yards from the back tees and requires a forced carry over a dry creek bed on your third shot.

Great value

Course has great value for the nice conditions and the fun layout of it. $80 during the week was solid, and we were allowed to play as a group of 5 and didn’t have any problems for pace. Only a 30 min drive from SD and well worth the trip. True canyon course with lots of elevation changes and FAST greens

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.
