Pala Mesa Resort

Had such a wonder round of golf. The pace was fast, the staff and especially the Marshall Lane were fantastic. If going south and have a chance the okay here well worth it. Pala Casino purchased in 2024 and has spent a good amount on the course and you can telll.

Played on a Wednesday so price was better than the weekend rate pace of play was great and the conditions were perfect amazing scenery made it a real enjoyable round. By no means was this an easy course with some quirky layouts and hole positions.

First time was recommended. Wasn’t disappointed instead couldn’t be happier on my choice. Fairways are in excellent condition, greens aren’t too hard or fast. Sand traps are very tough they replaced mosey with new sand. Lane the marshal was so nice and even let me know they had open course in front and behind if I wanted to to take extra time. Will be back on my next visit down to San Diego

The blues at barely over 6100... this course's defense is it's narrow fairways and fast undulating greens. Get above the hole, you better leave the putter cover on and hope it goes in. This course is always lush green and in great condition.

I haven’t played the course in over 1 year. The fairways and greens were in great shape. Greens ran true. Fairways were not thin allowing for easy ball contact. Rough was not penalizing.

My only complaint is that the bunkers are too full of sand. Great sand by the way, but being too full the club easily gets sucked into the sand. There were several occasions in our group where the ball was plugged in the bunker.

Had a great time golfing. The fairways are narrow and challenging. The pace was great. The fairway condition was excellent but the green condition needs some attention. The greens are speedy and challenging. The golf carts are pretty new with the club cleaning brush. We loved it. Water bottles are provided.

Overall, it was a great experience.

Must be below the pin or you will rarely make a putt of any distance. A fee holes were so tough that rgen putting from below the hole led to ball rolling backwards several feet. Super fun, and challenging!

The proshop staff was very friendly. There were 2 teens on the putting green keep harassing my wife. Which ever the target my wife was putting to, they would putt there too and laugh to each other. Their parents are ruide as well. We made to the first tee 5 minutes before our tee time. The starter has already sent the other to start the forward tee. He has himself worked up and rude to players at first tee. The tee boxes and fairways are in good condition. Same of the greens are impassable to putt. You have to move your ball to where there is smooth grass. I won't recommend this course to anyone. You should spend your money elsewhere to ENJOY your day.

The course is the worst run course I’ve ever seen. They sent me out as a single with two 15 year old kids and two younger kids as spectators in a cart. The spectators had no idea about golf etiquette. Then they quit after 9 which left me alone on a busy Sunday. The guy in the proshop was insulted I complained. I left my phone number and email address for whoever is in charge to call me and I never heard from anyone.

This course was such a pleasure to play !

It is in a beautiful setting!!

It does have enough challenges for all golfers.

The weather was perfect and the course wasn’t busy which allowed us to finish in 3 hours and 20 minutes!!

The course was in Great condition!!

Highly Recommend!!

They sent out two 14 year olds and two 13 year olds as spectators who had no idea what etiquette is. Played with the cart putting it in reverse in middle of my back swing over and over. Driving almost on the greens. When I complained at the turn the staff was insulted that I complained. I left my email & phone number for whoever is in charge there and never received a response. SAVE YOUR MONEY THERE’S GREAT COURSES CLOSE BY.

Pala Mesa is a really nice course in decent condition, which is now charging a lot more to play… The big problem is when you host the junior world champions and you don’t tell people signing up for a teatime that that is happening and they jam players in behind it It’s like watching paint dry… But at least you have all the helicopter parents wandering around or kids running into bunkers to play in the sand when you’re trying to hit up because their sibling is playing… Super disappointed.

Played after 3 JC courses and was in best shape compared to those; the greens were all great and the fairways cleaned of leaves.. the staff were great...

Started early in some fog. Third hole cleared up and was a great day of golf.
