Maderas Golf Club

It feels like a private course and plays like one at times. Everyone I have encountered has been wonderful and accommodating. I would definitely recommend getting there early to take advantage of the practice facilities.

Beautiful and scenic course but it is quite difficult to play as well. Wouldn’t recommend for beginner golfers. Pace of play was quite slow as well but it was a weekend so it’s typical of most courses. I’ll definitely be back though!

I played here on 7-24-19. with a 2:30 tee time. It was perfect a perfect day for golf. It was warm in the mid 90s with some cloud cover and breeze. I got out of work early on my birthday and was headed to the course for a nice round of golf. I decided to splurge and pay for a round at Maderas instead of the other local courses. Upon arrival, the bag drop boys were nowhere to be found. It wasn't until I parked and carried my bag from my car to the clubhouse, is when the boys came out of their office and put my bag on the cart. That was the first signal as to what is to come.

At check-in, I was told that there would be ice in my cart cooler and a couple of bottles of water for me as well and water jugs along the course and a cart girl. After playing a couple of holes, I found nothing but melted ice in my cooler and a single bottle of water. I was thinking no big deal there are water jugs all along the course and ill just refill as I go. Well turns out they're all EMPTY. Which surprised me as the course was wide open. At this point I'm irritated, there no water and I didn't bring any as I expected that there would be some along the course. Now I'm praying that the cart girl is making her rounds around. Well, you thought wrong... She is nowhere to be found and did not make an appearance one during the entire 18 holes of golf. Very disappointed in the management.

The only positive that I have is the conditions of the course. It was nice and well maintained.

Not fun for the casual or mid-high handicap golfer. Punishing for any shot that isn’t hit on the fairway. As you can imagine it is tough to pay a lot of money and go out in the Poway desert heat and lose all your golf balls in the brush. It is a high end course with regards to staff, upkeep, and amenities.

This is our second time playing the course. A little comprehension as the first time expert 5 years ago was very good. Well the second time was even better. From the time we drop tiff the clubs to iced towel upon the finish. Very enjoyable experience.

The course is full of ups and downs. The forward tees are generously placed for high handicappers.

First of all the staff are friendly and welcoming. The course and greens were in excellent shape. I’m looking forward to my next golf outing here. Thank You Madeira’s G.C.

This is a must play if you are in the area. The staff was very friendly and did their best to make sure guests enjoyed their day. Pace was a bit slow but it was a bit of bad luck based on when I went out. The marshall was very active and friendly trying to keep things moving along. I would definitely play again.

Pace of play was terrible. Didn’t see a Marshall until the 16th hole and all he did was offer up excuses. Three groups waiting on 15-18th holes.

Why allow a slow group to crap on everyone else’s round? Grow a pair and deal with the slow groups.

Can’t recommend a course that allows slow play!

Cart got stuck on a hole but there were no signs so my cart just said restricted area and I was stuck. Fun day not sure yet if it is worth the price though.

Great design, setting, conditions. Tough, but fair. I wish it were closer to my home.

Beautiful courses in great shape. My new favorite course in San Diego area

All aspects of the course were excellent, for players of all levels.

Most likely the best public golf course in the greater San Diego area. I prefer this course to Aviara at a much better price. Steele Canyon is excellent, but Maderas is just better. The conditions are consistently excellent. I have been playing during the week for $60 - $70 between 2pm - 3pm on Golfnow. The long hours of late spring allow plenty of time to finish. The design of the course and the beautiful surroundings are not to be missed. A Great deal at this price.

Never anything short of a 5star day at Maderas. Great course, 1 thru 18. Worth every penny!!

Always a wonderful experience out at Maderas, even if my scores don’t reflect it. The staff is always friendly and helpful. Practice facilities are well kept and give a good indication of what you’ll be in store for. A bit pricey for my weekly outing, but perfect for a once a month treat.

First time playing here. Course was challenging. In outstanding condition. One of the best courses I've played in a long time. Highly recommend playing this course!!

Was my first time playing in San Diego and had a really enjoyable time on the course.

Course was in great condition and thought layout was challenging without being too over punishing.
