Nice course for the money

Great layout but my latest trip was not that great. They put together the blue,white and red tee's. The course was ok anf the grass was tall due to rain. I love the layout. Thia course is worth the visit.

Greens punched without notice

Maybe it's golf now, and not the course, but I had no idea that they aerated the greens so, as you can imagine putting was terrible and slow. I would definitely chose a different course for my short time here.

Front 9 in better shape than back nine. Greens were slow due to sand (conditioning). Excellent value for seniors. Friendly staff

Avoid this course if you need to rent a set of clubs

Before I booked a tee time for this course I called the pro shop to inquire about their rental clubs. My wife and I are vacationing in San Diego and weren’t planning on bringing our golf clubs with us. I was told that their rental clubs are offered on a first come, first served basis. I wanted to reserve two sets before I booked a tee time and even offered to pay the rental fee up front, but was assured by the pro shop that rental club availability wouldn’t be a problem. We showed up 45 minutes before our tee time and were told that unfortunately they didn’t have any rentals for us to use. Not only was it a waste of our time driving out to the course, but it was also too late to book a tee time at another course, and a waste of the time we set aside to golf on our vacation. VERY DISAPPOINTING!

Not a great experience

Loved the layout of the course; staff wasn’t particularly friendly or helpful also charged an additional cart fee after paying booking a cart included fee.

Hidden Gem

The course is in very good shape overall. Some tees are a little chewed up, but there is evidence that the course is trying to fix that problem. Otherwise, the fairways and greens are in good-to-great condition. Keep your eye on that first hole drive - if you go left, you'll have to sort out your ball from the dozens of mishit range balls that found their way into the first fairway.
