Tustin Ranch Golf Club

Course was in pretty Good shape. Took us a little over 4 hours to finish on a Thursday morning. Greens are really challenging with several of them having multiple layers. Fairways and tee boxes were in pretty good shape. I would recommend this course.

We had a group of five on a trip who flew across the country, so we called ahead to make sure they’d let us play five as a scramble. When we showed up at the course the staff basically told us we were lying and that they couldn’t accommodate. Ruined our trip, don’t give them your business.

Greens tough an true, need to play once to judge speed. Water and bunkers strategically placed.

Haven't played TR for about a year and back then... conditions were awful for what they charged. I'm happy to report that conditions have improved dramatically, but the work in progress isn't quite finished to justify the high prices.

Service:

On course staff are friendly and kinda grumpy at the same time. It's not bad, but not exactly welcoming to a premium experience.

Course conditions:

Course conditions were mostly positive. A lot of (much needed) work has been going on and it's starting to show. Bunkers are white with nice fluffy sand. Fairways have decent coverage (a few bare spots), and rough was cut at a fair height. Greens were where reviews were mixed. The speed is fast and pretty good coverage. It loses points for a pluthora of ball marks. It's like a mine field! Not sure why players aren't fixing their marks! Greens are extremely difficult, so any bumps make it impossible to roll a correct line. For middle of January, the conditons are great, but divot/pitch marks muddle the experience.

Pricing:

Prices are too expensive for this course. It has a resort course layout and good conditions, but it's about 20% more too expensive for what you get.

Overall I enjoyed my day at TR with good conditons, great weather, and an enjoyable experience. Just get those prices down so I'm not constantly critiquing the course based on price paid. Let me feel like I'm getting a great deal... Not regretting it.

Course was a great track to play. Got tee time on Saturday morning for that afternoon. Very reasonable rate for the quality and layout of this course. Staff was helpful and friendly. I’d definitely go back and play

Weather was insane for January, this is why we live here

To be fair, it had been raining, so the course was fairly waterlogged. That said, a lot of the fairways were not in great shape. From what we were told by the regulars, the greens were in better shape than before. It'd be a fun course and one we'd come back to if it was better maintained.

Course is wet and they just punched and sanded the greens. Otherwise, it’s still good.

They did the aerification yesterday. Not possible to putt for a while
