Deteriorated condition
Watching the U.S. Open at Pinehurst, we see how penalizing the waste areas are off of the fairways. A drive down the middle of California Oaks will result in a similar situation. At least, the greens are green but incredibly slow.
$15 with a cart for 18 holes here would be a fair price.
Course was in rough shape
Had fun but the course was in really rough shape. It needs some TLC.
Following apart
This course just keeps getting worse. Tea boxes are so unlevel and hard. Nobody has cleaned them up broken tees from probably three weeks sitting no one cleaning up. So many gopher holes on the fairways it’s ridiculous.
Turned on sprinklers while playing
Went out and played a round of 18 with as a group of 4. Right as we were walking off the first green the sprinklers were turned on. It seems like they are just trying to save the greens at this point as most of the course is drying and the sands are heavily compacted. However, later in the round they kept turning on greens sprinklers while we were on the fairway, delaying the game and soaking the greens.
For $40 per person there are far better courses in the area. Go to Redhawk or Temecula Creek instead. What a joke.
Great course layout
The course has a lot of potential. I’m sure when it first opened it was a premiere golf course. However, it appears they only employ part-time groundskeepers. They work on the course just enough to call it a golf course. Greens are patchy and the rough are weeds, crabgrass, dirt. Since of the fairways have dirt patches. It’s a shape because the course layout is awesome. And the staff are friendly and helpful.
