Westridge Golf Club

I booked the 18 holes of golf during twilight hoping it would play fast, it took 3 1/2 hours to play nine holes.

A lot of undulating fairways, nothing flat at this course. Staff was great and accommodating. Another reviewer was right, beware of the squirrels, especially on hole #12! They are cute as heck, especially the young ones, and that is how they trick you and then steal the food in your golf cart.

This past weekend our 4th player contracted Covid. We told him to stay home and rest. The general manager, Kim, was the only person allowed to offer refunds and/or credits. He was not available at the time and was told to call back. For two days, when they said that Kim would be in (he doesn't seem to be in often), he was not available. We were finally able to talk to someone on the phone (in the presence of Kim), and couldn't even talk to him ourselves.

The person that was on the phone seemed to be talking to Kim.

Kim said we need a DOCTOR'S NOTE for a CREDIT to use in the future.

We are in our late 30's. This isn't high school. Among our player group WAS a doctor. We shouldn't have to turn in a DOCTOR'S NOTE! And for CREDIT nonetheless!

Now, for the pace of play.

There are times printed out on our golf carts that signal the time at which you arrive at specific holes. This is so you are able to discern your pace of play. Well, the groups in front of us were playing extremely slowly. It's fine though, the marshal will come around right?

Wrong. He showed up (on a Sunday), at the 16th hole. We started at 7:00am, finished at 12:30pm.

Marshal showed up past 11:00am. What's the point?????

Admittedly, it's partially our fault for believing that Westridge has changed for the better over the years. IT HAS NOT. We went a few years prior with another foursome and one couldn't make it. Well, at that time, they charged us for the fourth player AND put us with a solo player. We vowed never to return to this sheisty course... yet we did. OOPS.

Don't make the same mistake. Seems like they would have rather had my friend with Covid to come, touch, and breathe on everything there.

Golf course conditions were great but the green speeds were slightly slow but it should change going into summer. But beware of them darn squirrels, they work in teams and will steal any food you have. They’ll wait and watch you get off your golf cart, then strike when you’re in the tee box. Darn squirrels stole our snacks, protein bars and almost our beer. They do this like it’s a smash and grab robbery! So beware!

It's a shame what's happened to this course. Many of the fairways had so many bare spots with no grass or just plain dirt everywhere. There were a few good holes, but most were in need of serious repair or reseeding. Most of the bunkers were just hard pan dirt. If management took time to fix these problems, this would be a nice course once again. Until then, it's worth playing elsewhere.

Good pace of play. 4.5 hrs with 845am start on Thursday. Greens are being aerated this upcoming week so beware. There was a 3 group backup on the 1st tee as we completed our round. Keep pace and

Track routing is really nice. Greens were in good condition and require some accuracy to be in the right area. For the cost on a Saturday morning can’t complain at all.

Slow. Very slow. sometimes noticed 4 groups in one hole. like #3 hole. 1,2,3,4 is very slow pace. Beautiful 18th hole.

Westridge does indeed need Marshall’s and there were 2 when we played as they were dispatched because someone reported slow play. The marshalls were yelling and reprimanding the group infront of us because they had beginners, but it was 2 groups ahead of them that were playing slow. The Marshalls got it wrong and made the assumption that beginners are the ones causing the delay but it wasn’t them. I felt bad for the Americans in front of us getting reprimanded when they are paid customers and they weren’t the cause. Marshall’s, be better, as a fellow Korean that was really sad to see.

Great layout course and I like the redirection of this course recently,shot placement is a must because of the side hills.This is one of difficulty course here in Orange County
