Really good course, almost fully restored

This is a really fine golf course that was decimated by the drought and a bad fire. They have done a fine job with its restoration. It is almost back. As it is, it is a good place to play, and a great value. Friendly staff, quality practice facility. Some of the green side bunkers need work, but the greens are first rate.

Played mid January and the course is in good shape. Greens are really smooth and kind of fast(10-10.5 maybe). Fairways are getting there but not bad , just real bumpy in spots. Sand traps have that course sand in them but that’s expected due to the high wind that frequent there. Staff is very friendly and efficient. Nice driving range and putting green. Overall a course I would recommend!

Sand Canyon CC improving

First time on the course since the new ownership. I think the improvements that have already been done and those that are currently underway are a positive. The greens were firm and fast (good/excellent condition), the fairways are fair/good (a bit patchy because of new growth), tee boxes are poor/fair (could stand some leveling and needed mowing). After round amenities are very basic, but I suspect this will change as the amount of play picks up. The clubhouse facility is still one of the nicest in the valley!

Sand Canyon End of 2017 Update

Happy that the courses are getting better every time I visit. They still need to water the WHOLE COURSE MORE. Fairways are still a bit thin, greens were rock hard because of windy conditions. The bunkers need new sand in them as they are basically dirt, (I was only in 1 this day). Hot deal of $25 was worth it...not $70 as listed, maybe would pay up to $45 for Valley/Desert. Mountain 9 was the last to open, I bet it's really not ready. Not cart girl or ambassadors seen at all (11am tee time). The course is coming along which is great to see!

New owners are making a serious effort to make this a incredible golf course...Kudos!

The course has come leaps and bounds since I played in July,so many things to improve the way the course looks and plays.BUT they definitely overbook it and the round is painstakingly slow,I seriously had a 6some with two 4somes in front of them and every hole was waiting on the tee box for 5minutes between every shot,almost a 6 hour round on a Friday at 11:00.So that kinda kills it for me regardless of the beauty and redoing the lakes and such.

Had a nice day of golf!

The new owners have done a really nice remodel. I like the artificial grass strips that you take from the cart path to the fairways. The rock river beds along the sides of some fairways have beautiful rock retaining walls. They will be pretty to see in winter after it rains. It was a bit cool and even though windy in the area, the course was kind of protected by the mountains and not much wind. It was the first weekday after a holiday weekend so we did to wait on any holes. Fairways and greens were nice, the grass in the forward tee's and in some fairway areas was a little tall but not bad. I like the ceramic pots on every tee for broken tee's (or cigarette butts?) Nice idea. Bathroom were clean and well stocked. We played the Desert and Valley courses. The Desert Course had many rock river areas that you can not always see as you approach them, which is why I say it was moderately difficulty. Would be nice to have some more info in maps or on the score card. It would be easy to lose more balls with long shots into the river beds. Also can't go looking for your ball too much in the out of bounds areas as there are rattle snakes. We will be back!

Thank you so much for all the kind words. We have been working hard to bring this course back to it's glory and we must say it is coming along nicely. Pretty cool to hear someone validate our sentiment. Thank you again. Hope to see you at Sand Canyon sometime soon.

Sand Canyon is back!

The course is almost back to the excellent condition it was always in before the drought. It won’t be long until it is, as there are many improvements on-going. The 27-hole lay-out is awesome! I only gave 4-stars for the conditions because the tee boxes need to be mowed, but maybe there is a reason they for the longer length. The staff is welcoming and friendly. I play with a regular group of retirees who are excited that Santa Clarita again has a public country club level course to play at, since the other country clubs in Santa Clarita are private. If you haven’t gone there because of some of the older views, ignore them. The course is in great shape now!
