Money well spent

The pace of play and the staff were excellent, considering the Covid 19 restrictions. Be prepared to walk, not an easy walk.

The course was in really poor condition, I wasn't expecting for the course to be in a super awesome condition giving the current circumstances that wer're living , but it seems like no one did anything or much on the fairways, however the greens were in good shape

The guy at the Club house was very rude, a complete a......

No customer service at all

He refused to honor Golf Nows booking that included the cart, he said that they were charging extra for the carts, I offered to show him my email with the reservation so that he could see that in fact included the cart

he's response was " I don't care what's in that email

Golf Now should not do that"

This was the last time a set foot in this course, is bad enough that the course is in bad shape, but having to a....... like that guy

Better management needed!

I'm disabled. When I booked my tee time it said cart included. When I got there they said it's walking only. No apologies were given. I doubt I ever play there again!

No carts

I made a tee time for my foursome on GolfNow. It clearly said cart included. I wouldn’t have booked it otherwise. When I got there the guy said there are no carts. I explained that my tee time said with cart. He rudely told me that everyone knows there are no carts. This is not true. I played 2 days before at Enagic with cart. When I showed him my reservation he said that GolfNow shows carts are available but they’re not. I suggested that since they were aware of this problem, a text or email telling me before we got to the course would have been nice. He again rudely and without apology said that everyone knows there are no carts. Horrible customer service!

Golf Carts

They need to invest in adding more carts and or repairing was there now. Vinyl on seats are ripped or falling apart.

Always running short on carts, seems that I always have to wait for

a cart and then share, as well. Don't mind sharing if the person I'm playing with doesn't reek of pot. The greens are certainly in a very good shape, everyone that I played with really enjoy their putting. The tee boxes can use a little more tlc.

Slow but cheap

Jose in the pro shop was very nice, more pleasant to deal with than the guy who is normally working! This course is a good value for the money but for some reason they cannot figure out the pace of play. Very slow most days and usually can’t finish a full round if you don’t start by 11am.

Do not use golf now for reservations

Course lost my reservations and golfnow still has charged me for play.

Course is beat up and wet. Drainage is working overtime. Some oversaturated wet areas. Greens are slowish but pretty nice. Tee boxes are beat.

You get what you pay for.

needs new management

Mission Trails is a course that gets a lot of play. The condition is fair but better than it was in the past. Bunkers and greens improved. Still a lot of hardpan called fairways. The staff in the shop are annoying. They won't issue you a cart until your tee time. So you have to carry your bag down the hill to the range, then back up the hill to get a cart but not until your time to tee off. The starter, Hugo, is the only employee who can spell guest services. We drove by a lot of courses to get to Mission Trails. Next time, we'll stop at one of those courses instead, We want to spend our money where we are appreciated. Not at Mission Trails.

This course has interesting layout.

When I teed off, conditions were reasonable but after four holes it started to rain and got very windy. I almost stopped playing but when I got to the ninth hole it subsided. I made it through the back nine but conditions were uncomfortable. It was windy and rained a little bit.

We need the rain so that's good!

Fun, Forgiving Course

It's an easy course (for the most part), always fun to play if you need a round where you have places to miss. For the money, a lot of value.
