Steele Canyon Golf Club - Ranch/Vineyard

I loved this course. We started on meadows and finished on ranch. This course has 3 separate 9's and they were all in very good condition. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were all cut and in very good condition. Greens were very fast but not hard to get used to. Now granted it was a Tuesday... We didn't have to wait at all. There was some construction going on, on different parts of the course but nothing that would hinder your play. I was very impressed with this course and plan to play it again soon.

The golf course was in very good condition except in locations where grass is being removed to save water. These areas currently under construction did not really affect the play. Greens are tricky, but are true and fast.

Haven't played here in over 15 years and was pleasantly surprised at how it's character has been maintained. The course is difficult but playable for all playing levels. The staff is awesome and would say overall the course is one of the best values in the county. Will go back soon.

We played the Canyon/Ranch track and I was impressed before we even started. Very professional staff, nice range and a few very nice putting greens. I've played places that charge way more than Steele Canyon, but that won't happen again as I'll go to Steele Canyon in the future.

Impeccable conditions everywhere and I thought it was a great touch that they are replacing a lot of grass that's never used to adjust to water restrictions. This is a must play course and in my opinion is one of the best courses in Southern California. If you have out of town visitors this is the place to go.

The greens were very fast and in perfect shape. I love the elevation changes and the layout of this beautiful place. If I lived closer I'd purchase a membership here.

I love this course. I haven't been here in a while and love what is being done with the landscaping. The water wise plantings enhance the beauty of this scenic course. The greens were pretty marred up though, which is unusual.

I am satisfied with this course
I'll be back soon.

The course is beautiful, challenging and a lot of fun. Pace of play was really slow in the morning, but no one was out in the hot afternoon sun. Good was great and the drinks cart appeared regularly. I would definitely play this course again, but probably not on a Saturday.

Great. Course. Fun elevated tees in multiple locations. Thought I hit some good ones , but could not find them. My score was awful ,but my afternoon was great. Definitely coming back. Well worth the drive. Very accommodating staff. Double or nothing on 18 came in real handy this time out. Sorry ,Jim.

Nice course in quite good conditions, but from a Gary Player course I would have expected something more.
The Ranch 9 holes efinitely better than the Meadows, but after the fitst 5 holes, quite challenging and also spectacular (the 3rd in particular) I expected more. Hole 6, 7 and 8 not very strong, better the 9th. The Meadows is quite flattish and there are not great holes to mention.
In summary a nice course to play but nothing exceptional.

Great course as usual. However, we are a 2 some behind a SLOW 4 some and they didn't let us play through! No help from on course ranger because none to be found. In 100deg heat would have liked to speed around in 3:30 hrs instead of 4:40 imposed by group in front. Yuck.

Best course in San Diego for the price. The drive is a little far but is completely worth it.

Have looked at this course for a while and got a chance to play on a Sunday at 1:45PM for $39+ GN fees - rack rate is around $125 so I figured I'd take the ride out. Best decision ever. Course was great, every hole offered something interesting. Challenging yet fair, greens were in great shape, stimped at 10, but were also fairly tough with almost all built into hills and lots of undulations. I'm not sure I'd pay rack rate, but if I had friends in town I just may.

If you want to play somewhere you can count on the course being in great shape this is the one.
Very challenging, lots of different looks, really like all the elevation changes, and not "tricked up" just to make it more difficult.

Have not played here in about a year and a half and cannot seem to remember why! Really enjoyed the Canyon/Ranch pairing with my wife and single digit handicap 17 year old son. Despite the water restrictions, the fairways are in good shape and the greens are outstanding. Fast and unforgiving! It's a little disheartening to see the lakes at about 1/4 capacity, but not much we can do about that.

OK value for the money if you are a SD resident - there are less expensive places to play but those courses are not nearly as nice. There used to be some great deals on GOLFNOW.COM which included golf and lunch during the weekdays, but have not seen that one in a few years and the "HOT DEALS" seem to be few and far between.

The only two suggestions I would have to offer are 1 - upgrade your carts ASAP to include GPS. While most of the sprinkler heads are marked, etc, the number of holes with forced carries and ravines, etc would benefit from GPS in the cart. 2 - and this is just a personal preference - open up the restaurant for breakfast before 10:00. Yes, the snackbar is open, but the menu is very limited.

Other than that, will definitely play here again!

Great scenic coarse. A little beat up currently but its probably just the time of year.

Took my folks to this place. Very much satisfied and enjoyed our time. Highly recommended!

Course seemed long, especially the par 3's.
Might have been the wind.
Pace was fast.
Women's tees were great for my wife.
Greens were great.

The course was in good shape. Had a great time. The carts are worn out. My cart died on me on the 8th hole.

Being from Maryland and vacationing in the San Diego area yearly, this is one course I come back to every year.

This is a great course with an awesome view. Every hole has its different characteristic and very challenging. Staff is very friendly and polite. Greens are in great shape and fairways are well maintaned. At first I thought that it was a private course, but it was open to the public. Highy recomended and will come back to this jewel in the canyons soon.
