About

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.

Good course, would play again

Really enjoyed the course, greens were in rough shape, apparently fix your ball-mark is not a thing here. But overall the course played well and quick.

The golf beverage cart was only seem twice on front 9 and they only had 1 bottle of water, never saw them on the back 9.

If your a first timer, be prepared for chilly reception by the staff for invading their space. .

We apologize that the greens were not up to their usual very good standards as Steele Canyon values its greens as being the most consistent in the County year around. There was a large charity tournament the day before, clearly got some wear and tear. In addition, it was a busy day with lots of drinks going around, short staffed as is the case with many during Covid. We apologize for the poor reception, it is definitely not the norm and hope you will visit us again soon.

I Love This Place

All 3 9’s are wonderful layouts. They are fun and challenging. The condition of the course was amazing, the fairways green and the greens are in great shape. I spent a good part of my day repairing other peoples ball marks, but the course can’t screen out the idiots, unfortunately.

Exceptional character

This golf course has 3 different nine hole counterparts. I played upon the canyon and vineyard 9's. I LOVE the vineyard nine. There's a need to successfully hit all 14 clubs you have in your bag really well!

The greens were quick, but manageable. I made a lot of putts out there today.

Enjoy wonderful and difficult shots!

Solid round

Quick round of 3 hours. A few brown spots but Greens were lush and true. A great course in East County.

Great course, but felt pressured by tournament players

We loved the course but had a members of the Friday tournament crowd come down while we were playing the first green and intimidatingly tell us to hurry up on the first hole and throughout our 18 holes. We kept the pace of play and were respectful. Was disappointed to know that public members who paid green fees were looked down upon at such a renowned course.

Steele Canyon

The course is in excellent shape. The fairways, greens and tee boxes were very playable. It's an interesting layout, very challenging in club selection for players who don't know the course because of changes in elevation. The greens are true, a little slower than I am used to.
