good vakue for the money

I didnt liked being paired up with smokers! I also had to leave on #15 but couldnt as i was partnered up which made me late for an appointment .I asked for my own carrt and was told no .I didn't like that.The pace of play that day was good although I was told the nickname there is mission snails not trails refering to the pace of play.It actually would have gone faster overall with my own cart anyway as I could have been hitting righ after my "partner" hit.I will plat the course again but only if I go with a friend.

CHeap and a good outing

I really enjoy this course, I have golfed here since I was a teenager with my dad and it seems to have only gotten better. The course is maintained very nicely and the staff is friendly and seem to enjoy what they are doing. The price, other than Carlton Oaks, you really cant get a better deal in San Diego. I will continue to be a customer here for a long time.

Very nice staff, good greens, fun course!

Customer Service has significantly increased as of late. Very friendly and helpful. Greens are in pretty good condition and it seems like the course is slowly improving each time I play there. Some fairways could use some help but overall fun course.

Nice course to play although it is a little brown this time of year

Nice enough course. A little brown. Pace of play slowed down with the back to back par 3's on 9 and 10. Good value when using a GolfNow hot deal!

The greens are in excellent shape.

Was somewhat discouraged to play a round of just under 5hrs. on a Tuesday. The 9th hole turn into the 10th, where both are par 3's, may play into the delay but it seems also some players take their time with the food stop and no marshal regulates flow.

Fun and Cheap

Our trip started off bad. My friend and I had a 1:15pm tee time and didn't get to tee off until 2pm. After that initial headache the day ended up being fun. The play in front of us what pretty slow. At the 5th tee there were 3 foursomes in front of us waitng to tee off. it would've been nice if the ambassador would've tryed to get the front group to pick up the pace a little.

Really Slow

Arrived to discover we were automatically entered into shotgun start which was ok. Unfortunately there were others groups slotted in between the groups already on the tee resulting in a massive backup. Took us over 5.5 hours to play 18. Greens were in decent condition, fairways were pretty rough. Staff was very friendly and helpful, but not a great experience. Probably will not be back.

Potentially fun

The greens are very nice, but the fairways are pretty nonexistent. I would say this place is on par with Escondido CC, as far as quality. Both courses could use just a little bit of attention in the fairways.

With regards to the play, it is not very long and has some pretty fun little holes. I would say that bogey golfers have an excellent chance at the mid-80's here, and 15's can break 80.

The greens are not the best because of winter time

Course is fun to play on. There is one major thing that needs to be addressed. A ring around the cups on the putting greens after the holes are cut. It messes up the ball rolling into the cup.

Nice course

A nice course that allows you to use all the clubs in the bag since the langth of the holes varies a lot, some very tricky and some easy to "bomb".

If you want to play a easy course that's not long from the tips

This course only plays just over 5900 from the tips. We played this course in 4 hours and waited on almost every hole. The greens were not too bad, very soft due to the rain over the last 3 days. If you like to cart and not walk then don't play this course after a rain storm. It's cart path only. It's a very walk able course.

Good round to get hacks in.

The course was in fairly good shape however due to the recent rain there was a lot of standing water and wet areas. Drainage improvements are definitely in order on the front 9 holes.

Nice Course For the Money

Nice course to play for the money. Fun and challenging for a "bogey" golfer, like me. Probably too easy for better players. Fairways are generous and greens are challenging, but not overwhelming, for average golfers. I, seriously, drained a 70 footer for birdie on the 10th and my son drained a 25 footer for birdie on the same hole (our only birdies for the day, though). Course was in very good condition. The only negative (nothing to do with the course or staff - which was very friendly), was the weather. We got rained on pretty hard for the last 4 holes (:
