Pala Mesa Resort

this course is very mature. everything in the layout seems have been there since they built the place. i noticed a few old trees cut down. not sure from bugs or design.

the rough is rough. even in the fariway. the grass will grab the club if not struck perfectly. and the bunkers. stay out of them. 90% of my lies in the bunker during the morning were Fried Egg lies. some hard holes become easy with a correct tee shot. dont forget how your yardage goes down at sea level with a lot of humidity. the yardage difference can be extremely different from where you play regularly.

If you are into uneven tea boxes, burnt fairways that don’t have real grass in them, and second cut that is crab grass city, then this course is for you. This is one of the worst courses I have ever played in my entire life. That isn’t hyperbole. It is basically the same thing as playing a municipal course. If you are looking to not spend very much money, get a golf now hot deal, and go to town. If you are lucky enough to hit your ball in the 20% of the fairway that isn’t either burnt or harder than concrete, you’ll probably do OK. But if you are in the other 80% of the fairway that is either burnt, crab grass, hardest concrete, then you’re gonna have a not fun day. No, I wouldn’t recommend this to a friend, I’m not even sure I’d recommend this to an enemy. I uploaded one image of one of the tea boxes, I really should’ve taken more pictures of the course in general.

This golf course exceed our expetations! It was in excellent condition. Fairways were green and luscious, the green were like a carpet (I wish all golfers would fig their vall marks is all) they rolled true and broke as expected.

Fairways and tee boxes are in great shape as always.

It was my first time playing Pala Mesa and was impressed with the courses condition. Greens and t boxes were in great shape.

Con was several holes had irrigation hoses on the fairways. Sprinklers were also on several of the holes fairways while I was playing. I did not get wet, but needed to drive in the cart around to avoid getting wet.

Staff was courteous and helpful in the pro shop and lunch kitchen.

Great value through Golfpass.

Big improvements over last several years. Fairways in great shape, roughs penalizing, traps consistent, and greens smooth and running about 9. Pace of play @ 1:00: 3.75hrs.

Pala Mesa is a very challenging course in great shape. Bring your A game to hit tight fairways, miss many sand traps, putt on tricky greens and stay out iof trouble. The staff is very friendly especially Evan and Sonny!

I had a very enjoyable round. Course was in great condition.

Played there for the first time. Good course and reasonably priced.

Very playable course in good condition A little far from

Civilization. Good wine country. Enjoyed the course.

I love playing this course. Great layout really fun course to play. Not extremely challenging but really fun and wide open with some great doglegs. The woman who works at the snack bar is my favorite of all time. Extremely warm, friendly and always has a contagious smile. Pala casino purchased it and is really making headway in upkeep of the course.
