Holy Punched!!!!

The greens were freshly punched, if I had known they were punched I would not have booked this tee time. Golfnow are the golf course should let you know about punched greens when you make the tee time. When I walked on the putting greens, I felt misled!!!! In the future please let your customers know about the condition of the course.

We are sorry you felt misled, but if you booked through GolfNow there is usually a disclaimer at the time of checkout that states the course had aerated. However, it seems that the Hot Deals did not have this disclaimer. We apologize for this and will make sure it will not happen again with GolfNow. We hope you give us another shot soon.

Hot March round

The fairways are in fair cond, but the greens are really good. Noticed piles of sand, hope they are for the bunkers! Finished in 4 hours, on a Sun afternoon.

Had a GolfNow tee time and the counterman didn't seem too happy with me, made us wait 25 min.s even though there was no one else on the first tee.

Glad to hear the course will remain open and not become more urban sprawl.

I had a much better experience at General Old than the previous couple times. The pace of play on the front nine was good. Was able to play at a good pace, not being pushed from behind and wasn't pushing the play in front of us. Once we got to the back nine the pace was slowed and we caught the group in front of us. The group in front of them seemed to be goofing around. I was pleasantly surprised that a Marshall came out and talked to that group and the pace picked up again. The course looked good from all the recent rain. Overall had a very fun and

relaxing round.

General old golf course

It was great day for golf and what a great place to play. The staff was polite, friendly and professional. The course was in good shape a little thin in the fairways but the greens were awesome. Totally enjoyed the rolling landscape and the challenges that it presented. Honestly a great golfing experience...

Very Good

With so many public courses looking bad it was nice to play one that had grass in the fairways, and even some fringe cut around the greens. Have played here about once a year the last few and course has never played better. Playing white tees course is very long in the wind, and three of the par three's are 6 iron or better for my 15 handicap game. Fun to play again, for the shorter hitter it is hard to beat your handicap.

golf pro total authoritarian

I arrived for my tee time 25 minutes ahead of time as a single player. the golf pro who I paid said he would call me in about ten minutes.

he than told me tom join a threesome group on the tee box area. the threesome was part of a scheduled skins game. they said I was not part of there group. I went inside to the golf pro and he told me to go play with a threesome on the tee box. He can outside and said I was suppose to play with the threesome that was part of a scheduled skins game. I told him again that they said I was not part of there group. He ejected me from the course without even apologizing for his behavior. I would not recommend this course to anybody in there right mind as long as he is an employee of the course. His only concern was making money, very tacky.

One of my favorite courses

I used to work at March AFB and whenever I had an opportunity I would play with my boss and friends. This by far one of my favorite courses as it usually has military retirees. The course is a bit challenging as the fairways are narrow. Hole #1 presents both a challenge or easy hole to par or birdie (Par 5 slight dog leg left). The staff are very nice. The bar has good selection of beer, which includes local brews. I live in San Diego, but whenever I am in town and I have the time I try to squeeze in a round. Keep up the good work!

Nice Greens overall liked it I'll be back!

Teeing off thought the course was layed out well, landing areas we forgiving, as well as rick rewards. Great Greens, about every third or 4th holes was a cold water bottle to w/cups to drink from. No water in the dried up lakes, guess been like that for 3 years, still red staked. Trap's were raked and good sand. Fairway, I'd say was the weak part of the course better than most I've played this time of year. Around the greens A+ Good deal for the price. I didn't get to go into the snack bar so I can't tell about the food there was a phone to call in your orders on the 8th hole I think it was on? Pro Shope was up to date and staff was nice. I booked online was running late and they said no problem.

Enjoyed This Course!

Played this course for the first time while my home course was being overseeded! It was a bit long for me but still enjoyed the course layout, pace of play for a weekend, and conditions of the course. My husband and a friend also played and agreed that this course was a good choice. In fact, we liked it so well we will play it again next weekend and bring another friend too!!
