Steele Canyon Golf Club - Ranch/Vineyard

About
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.

Canyon 9 signature hole Photo submitted by RockinDoc on 10/05/2012
Amazing course with gorgeous nature canyon setting
Loved my day at this course! Staff was very friendly, played early in the morning and was able to get on solo with my booking and not paired up with another group. Was able to play all 27 holes, Canyon 9 was my favorite, but each 9 has its own unique setting, the Vineyard 9 crosses through a real vineyard that was neat as well. 10/10 would recommend.
Great course
Course was in great shape. Paired up with two guys that were awesome. Great round. The pair is friendly but challenging. I would love to play it again
tough track
Greens were excellent as were the boxes and fairways. I knew going into it that it was a tough track, and that proved to be true. Will still go back for the challenge.
Super Friendly Staff, Excellent Amenities, Sub-par Course
The good: super friendly Staff at all areas of the course. Excellent restaurant. Excellent course views. Three nines to choose from. Visually impressive.
Course is over-priced for the course conditions. Despite plenty of rain, fairways had too many spotty conditions. Course runs fast making fairways and greens play much smaller than they actually are.
Closer to a municipal than a club course.
Great Track
One of my favorite courses in San Diego. Some spectacular holes with large elevation changes, especially on the Canyon course. Challenging but fair, and tight in spots, so keeping the ball in play is paramount. Pricey unless you can get a Golf Now Hot Deal.
Great early March outing
My wife had an enjoyable 4 hour round on the Canyon/Vineyard nines. Greens and tee boxes in the best shape. Fairways and rough had some thin areas.
Nice Course, Good Choice
My second time at Steele Canyon, playing the Canyon/Ranch combo both times. Some spectacular holes, especially on the Canyon course. Pretty tight with forced carries, so expect to lose some balls. Fairways are closely cut, so the ball runs out, which can be good or bad, depending on whether you're in the fairway or rough. Overall, one of my favorites in the San Diego area, especially if you can get a Hot Deal.
