Tahquitz

Enjoyed the round this week. Liked the layout of the course. Course was recently aerated but was healing up pretty well. My play wasn’t stellar, but looking forward to next round here.

Playing golf through a homeless encampment

I have played Tahquitz a number of times in the past ... but not within the past 10 years. A lot has changed since then. It used to be that if you hit into the wash area you needed to be careful of snakes. Not anymore. It's the dozens upon dozens of homeless encampments that are scattered throughout the "Resort" course.

Very sad indicator of the state of society in California ...

On second thought

Really looked forward to this round. However the course was in really bad shape, and the homeless feces on the tee box was the last straw for me! Not gonna lie, playing amongst all the homeless trash and tents was not the experience I was looking for. No drinking water on the course. It played like a muni in disrepair. Not really sure I would return.

Punched Greens

They just punched the greens a few days ago. I would wait at least another two weeks before playing here again. Lots of homeless living along the first few holes. Rude maintenance personnel kept rolling the green on 16 and wouldn't let me play. I literally waited 5 minutes for him to finish. Then he held a conversation with his coworker while I was chipping then clanged around working on his equipment while I was putting. Other staff were great. I like that every hole is different. I'll probably play here again this summer but I'm going to make sure the greens haven't been punched before I book it.

Very Nice Public Resort Course

Overall the greens, fairways, tees and bunkers were in bery good condition. The course is challenging off the tee because target areas appear to be tighter than they actually are from the tee. Great place to play.

Homeless

The first 4 holes I was encountering homeless people each hole and people on bikes riding around on the cart paths.

2 of the homeless were lying down in the creek made from the run off.

Felt a little nervous the whole time.

Slightly above average course

Have played this course plenty of times, but this was the first time playing here in over a year. Course is still in good shape, tee boxes were a little beat up on some holes, like others have mentioned once you get to #3 you start to see the homeless set up in the native area. No one bothered our group, but they are within sight, and they also randomly walk the course. Did not see a Marshall once, but pace of play was average. Cart girl was very nice and made her rounds quickly. Will play again.

Love it!

We had a great time, not sure why they let singles go as we’d let them play through each time adding minutes to our round. That’s my only complaint though. Love this !

No bathrooms

I really like the Resort course but I cant play there anymore. Twice I needed the bathroom on the course and twice I had to race to the clubhouse. I thought it was just a mistake the first time. If the reason for locking the bathrooms is because of homeless people then there should have been a key to open it somewhere in the cart. I was never told of a key. Very disappointing and completely disruptive.

Fun course and a great deal

The Resort course is challenging to play and a great deal as well. Staff is very friendly...even the homeless that live under the bridge and were playing the course allowed us to play through :)...that was a new one... Would play again.

Beautiful course for the price

The course is well maintained, we booked with hot deal and the price was great value, if we were paying at regular green fee we might have passed the opportunity to play this course.

The view is spectacular!

TC Resort Course Challenging But Fun

The Tahquitz Creek Resort Course is challenging from both the white and blue tees, lots of fun because the layout is so creative. Lots of interesting water features, several elevated tees and greens, plus a good variety of doglegs. Staff were friendly and professional from the pro shop to starter to cart barn. The beverage cart was everywhere, helping keep us hydrated. Nice big range with grass to warm up. The homeless camps in the wash within sight of holes 3 and 4, were sad but the few people over there never even looked in our direction, ie, not an issue for golfers. Had played TC years ago, and will play the Resort Course again (soon, I hope).

Poor experience

I booked a hot deal online and was not eligible to get my money refunded so I was stuck with playing this course. I had an afternoon tee time at x:xx but they made us wait an extra hour and a half because they didn't have any golf carts available. We basically had to wait out in the hot sun because they don't have any shade or sitting accommodations for when they make you wait an hour for a golf cart. I remember thinking to myself that all of these workers should get fired. Noone knew what to do. They just sat there and came up with talking point excuses that they had four tournaments that morning and all of their carts needed to be charged up again. Then to make things worse, the sprinklers came on while we finished holes 16-18 because it was that late in the day when the sun was setting. How sad.
