Coyote Hills Golf Course

Had a great day at Coyote Hills. Demanding tight tee shots; greens in good shape; well bunkered - Staff was great. Fun course with great views, but the $160 price tag was more indicative of how hard it is to find tee times these days than a fair value for the price. Impossible to walk with long rides between greens and tees, so don't try it. This course has the feel of Industry Hills, but not quite as good - and they charge $109 on weekends. So Coyote Hills needs to get their prices in line, or I probably won't be back.

Fun, scenic course. Couple of things our group wishes they would do: Enforce pace of play, it’s a par 70 that frequently takes 5 hours. The Marshalls are not interested in speeding anyone up, not sure what they do. They also need to stop locking the carts in “sensitive areas.” Your software does not work and you get randomly locked when it’s not on the map. Lastly, you need a quality logo pencil, why the cheap ones?

Enjoyed the later afternoon round here on a Friday. The pace of play on the back 9 slowed down significantly. The course let a solo out, then a twosome in front of us then we were a twosome, then another twosome behind us.

The tee boxes and fairways were in good condition but the greens were ok. All in all it was nice to play a nicer course in OC.

Overpriced, underwhelming, and run by people who treat customer service like a bunker shot—awkward and indifferent. My friend got sick and couldn’t play, and instead of offering a credit, they charged me anyway like heartless leeches. Another time, a shot flew near a house (built after the course), and the staff gave out our phone numbers to the angry homeowner—cue two weeks of harassment for a window that wasn’t even broken. For the price, you’d expect professionalism, not pettiness. Never going back.

The course is lovely and has amazing views. Conditions were not as good as I hoped. Fairways were rock hard and pace was incredibly slow for a Monday afternoon. It's fun with the elevation changes and water.

Kind staffs with many good amenities.

Narrow fairways and turf greens. Course seems short but very difficult. Beer was kinda pricey. Challenging course.

I hadn't played Coyote Hills in15-20 years and didn't remember it much at all. The course is typically Orange County (overly) expensive. The course was coming off of aerating 20 days ago and the greens were OK - not fast and a little bumpy but OK. Pace of play was surprisingly good for a saturday mid-day on a pretty challenging course. I give a lot of credit to the course for having marshals coming by frequently (must have been 4 times). I lost more balls (4) than I usually lose in 7 rounds and just couldn't find them (I will attribute that for not really knowing where to hit the ball and where it 'should' be distance-wise. Overall mostly a good experience, I won't choose it as the first place I play as it is pretty far away and pretty expensive, but such is golf these days.
