Course Highlights
The three-nine layout delivers dramatic elevation changes and stunning scenery that consistently impress golfers unfamiliar with San Diego's hilly terrain. Friendly staff and well-maintained greens that hold up even after heavy rains make this course a reliable, rewarding choice.

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.

Odd Course

Played Canyon / Ranch.

Canyon course layout is a joke! Ranch has a few good holes but some gimmicky ones also.

Green conditions were very good. Some fairways nice, but overall nothing I'd recommend

Good overall track and conditions. Small driving range to warm up and nice practice putting greens. I stayed for lunch and the food was good. They don’t have showers so if you need to change to go to a meeting after, yuu’ll need to make other arrangements.

Great experience!

What an incredible course! The course was in fantastic shape fairways were beautiful greens rolled true and were in incredible shape. The club house was immaculate the staff was very friendly and the views were majestic. If I lived in East County San Diego I would make this my home course without a doubt. It was simply the best experience of my five days of golf on my trip to San Diego.

Top notch course conditions

This course has the best greens and overall conditions of anywhere in the south I would put this course ahead of Sycuan. Pace of play was not great but if the slow group ahead of us would have let us through it would have been fine. I highly recommend this course.

Challenging but fun

First time playing and there are some unknown hole layouts that if knowing would play different. A bit pricey compared to others in area, but will come back.

Spectacular mountain course

We played Canyon/Vineyard on a Monday. Nice conditions. Canyon layout is much tougher but overall beautiful. You need to have some experience to score well. We’ll come back the next time visiting San Diego area.

Nice place

This course (did not play the vineyard)offers great views, plenty of challenge , whatever tee you choose. Conditions were very good. Players should do a better job of repairing ball marks. Greens were quicker that an any place I've been to recently. Great course for the money.

Challenging layout

Course was in great condition being the greens had been punched within the month, hey we're rolling at 9.5 and it seemed to be pretty accurate.

Must be prepared for several blind shots if it's your first time playing. I played a hole and didn't realize it had a spit fairway, great hole just didn't have direction.

Will definitely play it agin when I'm in SanDiego!

This course is arguably in the best shape of any daily fee course in the San Diego area. By far the best greens I have played on in recent memory. Maybe because it was labor day, but I played a full 18 holes in under 3 hours. The whole experience was excellent. Wish I could play here all the time!
