Not a course for beginners or intermediate players
The fairways are not great and if you dont hit the fairway 90g chance you will not find you bald since the grass is so long.
Greens were very wet
Even when you hit the fairway there are enough troughs crossing the fairways that you still might lose your ball. Lots of places where it was hard pan or dirt.
The Colony
I play here all the time.. even started playing golf here Some 25 Years ago.. hard to believe it’s been that long but yeah.. if you don’t mind an Somewhat executive Style length course that actually plays long for an exec. (Or a short normal course or from front-ish tees on a normal length course) u might enjoy the colony or cal oaks as it’s called on here.. conditions can vary but not a whole lot.. its usually pretty decent..it’s a little rough around the edges but it’s not terrible to me by any means.. And I know what pristine courses look like.. (doesn’t mean I have to go pay 100+ dollars to go enjoy a round every time I want to play) greens are typically on the slightly slow ish side but I’ll take that over dumb fast any day but that’s all preference.. like anything.. great, friendly staff that is always a pleasure to deal with ! It ain’t no Torrey pines but for the price I think it’s Just fine.. some of the rough can be just as brutal as torreys though haha! don’t let the bad reviews stop you from playing it and forming your own opinion.. If you like casual, fun golf with an interesting park-ish style layout within a 55+ community then go play it.. if your a really picky about everything type then stay away.. but if your casual I’d say go play and have a good time out there ! I always do.. the end
Great place to work on your game
Great course to work on your game for affordable rates.
Great Layout
I played back 9. Super friendly staff, gave great advise and provided a play book. Course condition could be better but I really enjoyed the layout. User friendly but still challenging.
In rough shape
Tee boxes were nothing but dirt. Fairways extremely dry and patchy. Greens covered in unrepaired divots. Will not be going here again.
Wow really bad
This course was really Messed up the tee boxes were all terrible the greens were OK none of the grass around the fairways were cut. This course was in terrible condItion. They dont take care of it at all. I wouldn't play here ever again even for free.
Worse course in socal
Can’t clean bunkers can’t clean up grass clippings. Grass is long.
Sad
I've played throughout the years and though it's not a great course and it's narrow its always been a course you can walk on and get out right away and get a quick 9 in for your fix. It will challenge you to hit straight. It had been awhile since I played but the course and it is in the worst shape I've ever seen it, everywhere you go in the cart your constantly bouncing up and down due to gopher holes everywhere. Greens are the only thing maintained, other than that the rough is weeds and fairways are 50% dead and in terrible shape. Bunkers are ...well I can't even call them Bunkers. Course should be charging $10 to play. Very sad
Love our early Friday Morning T-Time!
WONDERFUL!! Enjoy our early Friday morning T- time with the wildlife, the quiet time and slower pace. Good for the soul! The course is beautiful to look at and fun to play! Thank you!!
