Strawberry Farms Golf Club

Well I haven't played Strawberry in almost a year. After the last round I didn't think we would return. Last may almost 6 hour round and the course was pretty beat up. The layout is good, challenging mostly fair..except18, it like they forgot golf was 18 holes and after 17 they remembered oh crap we still need one more! Terrible hole Mr. Designer, . Anyway, this round was a beautiful day, course was in great condition, greens were very quick, hard to read, pace of play 4:15, all in all a nice day. The manager offered me a free round BTW after the 6?hour round but I lost his name and email and never took him up on it... Lol bring plenty of pellets, certain holes are very unforgiving ill let you figure out which ones.. :)

The front nine are relatively close to a busy road and with some wind the traffic could be heard quite well.

However, the back nine are in a beautiful setting with nice views into the hills around and very well layed out around a lake with a small dam.

The fairways were ok. for the time of the year but the greens were in very good condition and nice to putt on.

After the round we had very friendly service at the club house restaurant and very good food.

All in all a place to come back as the course is challenging from the back tees but fair!

Difficult conditions to assess the course due to amount of recent rainfall. That said, course is okay but overpriced for amenities. No GPS, no ballwashers - just basic course which would be okay if not priced so high.

Very friendly in pro shop and terrific server and food in restaurant.

It was nice challenge for the average golfer without being intimating.

Played in under 4 hours and the course conditions were better than usual. Haven't played much at Strawberry due to the recent lack of care to the course and the always slow pace of play but today the course was in great shape and the pace of play was wonderful. Playing in under 4 hours in Orange County is just great.....

Heard great things about this course when it opened.

Course Layout - OK, nothing outstanding

Course conditions - poor for the money.

The regular green fees are over $100, I do not understand why anyone would pay that much to play this course. I paid just over $50 (included the cart), I thought I was getting a good price! I paid too much. The price or true value should be between $35 - $50. Tee boxes are OK, fairways need work, greens ok at best, some are bumpy/poor conditions. Rough or other than fairways are poor.

I wish that the Marshall was more pleasant. He would not even smile or say hello.

Lots of character and some beautiful holes. My wife enjoyed the long 6 par on the back. Greens were a little fluffy but they had recently been punched. It’s a great course that I will try to play whenever I am in the area

The course was wonderfully kept with great staff and the “Hot Deal” is by far the best value for such a great track. Loved it. I will play again soon.

This is by far the worst value play for your money year round. No matter what time of year or day its not worth the price of admission. I've played it six times in the past two years and regretted it every time. Six hour rounds are the norm, even in the middle of the week. Conditions are never on par with the other courses in OC. The layout is a joke, its like video game golf on some holes. No GPS on carts.......Just a bad experience overall. Slash the price by 75% and maybe its worth your time.

Nice course, was recommended by a friend. Nice location right in Irvine. Good layout - fair price. Great staff.

I’ve played this course at least 15 times. This was the worst condition I’ve seen the course in. To clarify… The greens were in horrible shape. Unrepaired Divet marks everywhere… Land mines… Bumpy putting… Tea boxes were good fairways were good greens were horrible… The groundskeeper cutting the grass did not have enough etiquette to turn off his lawnmower horse stop his work temporarily while we approach the green… Very distracting and annoying . The staff which previously greeted me at the entrance and the exit to clean my clubs were absent. Today seems like a course with a discounted staff and a discounted budget to maintain the course. The one real positive, was I recently had my club stolen and have replaced my irons and needed to demo a driver/Threewood… And the gentleman in the pro shop was kind enough to lend me his clubs which were fantastic… Kudos to him .

The restaurant staff was her Renda‘s… I ordered food and the gentleman argued with me… When the order came back and correct he told me I was wrong… Whatever happened to the customer is always right?… I’m a pretty easy-going guy… This guy needs to be fired .

Seriously doubt I will be playing this course anytime in the near future

I really enjoy this course even though it is a pretty challenging track!!!

Gave up after 9 holes and over 3 hours.

They said they do not have rangers working on Sunday - their busiest day. Brilliant.

I requested a partial refund, but was denied.

I hope they run the strawberry business better than the golf.

Nice layout but they have let the fairways go and the greens are so so. Not worth the price.
