Nice course

This was a nice course. I’m a beginner so don’t have a ton of experience but I really enjoyed it. Played the forward tees and still was challenged. Can’t wait to go back.

The staff was so nice!

Solid course friendly staff

Course has a great layout good conditions still under construction so a hole was closed for the day (12) so get to play 1 twice. They discount the rate and give you a free drink for the inconvenience. Awesome staff. Pace of play was great. Marshall comes around making sure it’s a great experience. Definitely would play again

Disappointed

Got to course and two holes were closed. No notification on golf now. Even with the discount, far to overpriced and the replay holes didn't match closed holes.

Will likely not return.

Overpriced

Course was being renovated on 10th and 11th holes. Course offered 10% off and free drink coupon (water, soda, or beer) but value still wasn’t worth the green fees. Could play a course just as nice for less than what I paid here.

Well maintained

Tustin Ranch is a well managed and maintained golf course. Although the greens had been recently plugged and sanded, they were in great condition. Holes 9, 11 and 18 are signature holes, challenging but fair with no sneaky hazards.

OC Gem

As municipal courses go, Tustin Ranch GC offers playability with quality conditions, despite heavy traffic. They could use a range to improve pace of play but other than that absolutely no complaints.

Sunny Skies at TR

First time playing this course, came here last summer to watch the outside events they host. Course looks nice on the surface but has some holes that need some attention. Little stiff with the $185-$200 price & not get a warm up bucket or waters inside your cooler. I would say the mid-week price is what weekends there should cost. But again.. it’s Orange County, very friendly staff & a beautiful clubhouse, Pro Shop & Restaurant. The first 6 holes are tough but then opens up & can be taken after that. I do like this course & if they offered a “little more” would be so worth the cost.

Nice Course, but $$$

Course was in good shape. A couple of greens (pin positions) were gimmicky. Had the group in front slow us down a couple of times otherwise would have been 5 stars. Ridiculous you had to pay to use practice area and range balls need replacing.

It's a Shame

To begin, I love this course - the layout, bunker locations, distances and variety of holes.

BUT...course condition is bad. Some areas get over-watered and most bone dry.

Would like to hit a wedge with grass under the ball

...not here!

This place to invest instead of reap

An excellent golf course with challenging and enjoyable

This is an excellent golf course. With its beautiful scenery and proximity to the city center, it offers a great playing experience. The main challenge lies in the greens – if you hit the ball straight onto them, it can be tough to stop. Therefore, it's crucial to select the right club for your approach shots, aiming to land the ball just in front of the green so it can roll onto it smoothly. The same principle applies to chipping; picking the right spot for your chip is key. Overall, this is a fantastic golf course that's both challenging and enjoyable.
