Fairways

We weren’t told that the fairways were roped off for seeding. They need a lot mor than seeding. Fairway grass was almost non-existent.

However, the greens were in excellent shape.

Maybe it will rain a lot this winter and shape up the fairways.

Tough little golf course.

Had a business trip down to San Diego and decided to get a round in. Found this on Golf Now and the reviews seemed to rate this a good course so gave it a try. Really nice course, challenging and the staff was friendly

GN pictures are deceiving.

This is by no means a “nice course”. The pictures make it look lush and gorgeous and it may once have been. But it’s in a state of major disrepair.

Relatively fun layout but not nearly worth the $78

No Adult Supervision

While I believe this course can be a fun outing, there is a noticeable lack of adult supervision. Today I was paired with two gents who not only refused to shut up while I was addressing and playing my ball, but actually walked directly in front of me commencing on hold number 1. I did see a couple Marshall’s out and about but they lacked the spine to actually correct rude behavior and failure to observe even the basic rules of decorum on a golf course.

What truly bothered me was observing a fellow golfer with her chihuahua tethered to her cart and actually complaining about her animal almost being hit by an errant tee shot. What kind of a course allows this type of activity? I know the marshal had to have seen this woman and her dog.

I will not be spending any more of my time or money at this venue until such time as I am convinced the staff has learned the etiquette of the game and agrees to enforce common sense rules on the course. Very unprofessionally managed.
