About

Holes 18
Type Semi-Private
Par 71
Length 6908 yards
Slope 141
Rating 73.7

Gary Player designed the 27 championship holes at Steele Canyon Golf Club in Jamul. The holes are divided into three unique nines that are played in different 18-hole combinations. The nines, called Canyon, Vineyard, and Ranch, each offer a different character but they are equally challenging. On the Ranch/Vineyard Course, golfers will be playing alongside free-roaming cattle that wander across the grassy meadows. There are a few elevation changes but they are not as dramatic as on the Canyon nine. Water hazards come into play several times and there are strategically placed bunkers to contend with as well. The third hole on the Ranch nine is the signature hole at Steele Canyon. This tricky par 4 plays from an elevated tee that sits 175 feet above the fairway. It is made even tougher by the prevailing winds that blow from left to right.

Beautiful but tough course

The views were stunning but it was quite a challenge. Loved all the multi level holes. There was no starter and I had to talk to the cart guys to figure out where to go but overall a really good experience.

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.
