Exactly What You Expect

Well organized and well maintained. Course is interesting and played in under 4 hours on a Sunday morning. My only critique is the cart didn’t start running until 10am and the bar/restaurant wasn’t open for lunch. Definitely will play again

Playing Tustin Tanch

I thought it was a great value for an Orange County course. Staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. The one suggestion I would make is for the course Marshalls to really get on groups that don’t fix their ball marks and rake their traps. This should be a culture in golf but it seems to be getting lost.

Thanks

April 2022

This was my first time to the course. I really enjoyed the experience from beginning to end and it firmly met all of my expectations. Most notable was that the course felt very spacious and I was not concerned about hitting any errand balls that would go into residential areas or other holes. Will definitely be back!!

Lots of water features

This is a beautiful course and was in excellent condition. Course knowledge will help my score next time. Need to be aware of water in front of some greens.

1 step forward, 1 step back

Fairways are starting to get better, however the greens are getting worse. I don't know what it is about this course, but I've never been to a course where so many people don't fix their ball marks. Some of the greens are literal mine fields! Greens are fast and firm and don't hold shots very well. Fairways are firm and forgiving and good shots will get lots of roll. Layout is great. Pace of play is a crap shoot. Some days it's perfect, and other days it's 5+ hrs. Greens are scheduled for aerification at the end of the month. Hopefully all those ball marks get fixed. Love this course and its close to being great, but still doesn't quite justify the high green fees.

No serious warm-up is possible early Monday mornings

The driving range is closed on Monday mornings until 11am. So you can’t warm-up properly for your $100+ round. Unlike many other clubs around the world, no practice nets are here for warm-up purposes. A serious deficiency in an otherwise reasonably good club overall.

Pics of the lovely 11th hole are attached.

Nice challenging course

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.

Miserable

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.
