Colina Park Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-3 course that has a reputation for having some of the best conditions in the area. The course is an excellent spot for working on your short game. You can leave your driver at home because your wedge and putter will be doing most of the work. The layout is a seemingly short 1,250 yards but it's packed with challenges including more than 10 bunkers, two lakes, and even a few waterfalls. The par 3s range in length from 67 yards to 125. Some of the elevated tee shots can be intimidating and the undulations in the fast greens call for careful course management. Colina Park Golf Club is a course that will test you, no matter what your skill level, and to make it even more appealing, it's also one of the most affordable rounds in the San Diego area.

How is this course on GolfPass

We booked this expecting at least an executive 9 hole or 18. It was essentially like if a putt putt course suddenly had a little fairway connected to it. The tee was essentially a mat and the green was just fake grass. I was on a layover with a few hours to kill and wasted my time taking my clubs out of my travel bag for this place - I can’t even describe the disappointment when I got there..

I mean I’m all for kid friendly golf but you need to let people know that this is by no means a serious or even standard golf course

Awesome par 3 course

As others mentioned it's a short game practice course. Nothing needed other than wedges and a putter. My wife is new to golf and doesn't swing very hard so she brings some longer irons and hybrids as well. The whole course is very well maintained and the greens are also well taken care of. The 17th and 18th holes are my favorite. Really cool course as well since it's really hilly. Also, with the golf now app you can consistently find weekend deals to play the full 18 for just $5. Since I love short game, this has become my regular course.

Good for your short game

2 or 3 holes about 100 yds, everything else is 60-80. You can only hit off mats in the tee boxes so that takes a small adjustment. About 1:40 for my buddy and I to play 18.

Great course to work on wedges and putting

This is a cute little par three course with no hole over 115 yards. Tee off areas all have mats in excellent condition and the greens are in very good condition and roll great. Do not need anything more than a pitching wedge; I used my lob (60°) and sand (56°) wedges most holes but did use my gap and approach wedges on a couple of holes. Played 18 in about an hour 40 minutes even though it was pretty busy.

Very Nice Course

Waht a nice surprise. The course was short as expected. So think short game. Great practice for chips and putting. The tees are all mats, so you can't hit off the grass. But the mats are very large and in great shape. The course is actually hilly. I don't recall there being a flat fairway on any of the holes. The green are in great shape. Some of the sand traps are iffy, but overall the course is great shape. Played on a Tuesday afternoon so not crowded at all.

Fun Day

Me & my fiancee decided to play Colina to practice our short game. We loved the hilly course. Distances ranged from 54 to 109 yards, so all that you needed to play are your wedges and putter. Course was in great condition. Pace of play was excellent considering there were a lot of golfers on the course. This was my 5th time playing here and my fiancee’s first. Friendly staff. Great beginners course.

Fun, very short

Very short course. Wedges and putter. Is a ‘first tee’ site catering to development of young players. Also a frisbee golf site.
