Rating 49.9

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.

Great course!

If you know what to expect and are okay with everything like mats for tee boxes and short holes and having lots of kids around since it's focused on teaching them then you'll love the course. Great deals in the pro shop too. The chipping practice area was not well kept and is very small I wouldn't bother doing that again. I would only go to the course to play 18 holes or if you have an instructor to help you at the caged in driving range or hitting cages. Can't get much out of those areas by yourself. The driving range is 50 yards long

Short Game course

I have been playing golf for two years, so I would consider myself a high handicap player. This course was perfect for me because my short game needs work. Colina is perfect for those wanting to work on their short game. The greens were well maintained and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely play this course again. Perfect for beginners and those who want to work on their short game.

Great Pitch n Putt

I only played the front nine due to the fact the back was closed for a kid's clinic. I prefer to play 18 different holes so I bailed after the front. Course is in great shape and the greens are excellent. The staff is very friendly. I recommend calling the course before booking to ensure all 18 holes are open. Golf Now has some obscene hot deals for 4 bucks during the week!

Hidden Gem

Well maintained course. Green fairways and nicely maintained greens. Never crowded. Very short, short course, about 60+ to 100 yards per hole. Great prices. Absolutely the BEST deal in San Diego, if you want to practice your short game. Only downside is that you tee off mats, but that is not really a problem. Great place for the beginner or someone more experienced who wants to work on chipping and putting.

They also run a First Class golfing and life skills program for kids named The First Tee/Pro Kids, which I highly recommend for any kid. Relative to the cost of golf lessons, this program is very, very inexpensive.

Good course for beginners

I played with my 9 year old son and was quickly down by 2 after he birdied the 1st and I made 4 from the back of the green. Today the greens were slow, having been recently punched and not mowed for a while. The course is fun, lots of hills and you can play it with a gap wedge and a putter. All the tee boxes are synthetic grass mats which helps keep the course divot free. We got behind a family of 4 that was sharing clubs out of a single bag and marking every putt. We skipped hole 5 and got around them and played the rest of the course in about an hour.

Sandwedge and putter

Great place for kids to learn the game. Most holes are about 75 yards. The course was in very good condition. Water and sand play a part in the challenge.

Where beginners should start playing.

Pace of play is huge problem - idiots who have no business teeing off from the blues (or the blacks for that matter); spending too much time over a shot; too many practice swings; lining up their shot; etc... all of this to either shank a shot out of bounds or nudge it 5 feet forward...just so they can do it all over again FROM THE SAME SPOT!!! Absolutely mind-boggling and RIDICULOUS!

This is where these players should be playing - its nice, easy yet challenging enough, short and most of all FUN. Learn the rules, the etiquette, the nuances, and still get off the course in a respectable time.

Very good beginner course

I took my son to this course as he is a beginner golfer. Although holes are short, the elevational changes on some of the holes provided good challenges.
