5 amazing Par 3’s

This course is on a very special property with forced carries over canyons that remind you of the Caribbean with the ocean in the background. But what really stands out are 5 Stellar Par 3’s Fazio always knows how to get the best land to build on. The North is good bit the South is better if you only have a chance to play one. If you need a caddie Jason was amazing best caddie I ever had his knowledge of not just the course but also the game is second to none and the greens are tricky with the ocean and canyons.

As Good As Golf Gets!

This is a must play golf course for any level. I would consider this course one of the best courses in the country. Stunning Mountain and Ocean views, PGA maintenance conditions , and supper friendly staff. If you love golf you will love this course.

Gorgeous views with some routing quirks

On one level, that Tom Fazio was able to fit two golf courses, let alone one, onto the terrain at Pelican Hill is quite a feat. Still the South Course ended up with a bit of an odd routing - lots of driving between a few holes - in order to execute the course. The 18 constituent holes, though, are solid, with wonderful ocean views And some fun contouring around several greens. The oceanside par-3 12th and 13th holes are great selfie spots, too

Poor Value

Driving range sub par. Grass with sand underneath.

No scorecard, no water in cart

Greens were no better than any municipal golf course. Very bumpy and not well maintained.

Pace of play was terrible and no Marshall in sight.

I would not recommend this golf course to anyone for the price you have to pay.

Very disappointed

Great Views

This was my first time playing this course and I was very impressed. I played the south course and the greens were perfect the layout is tough but fair. Keep the ball in the fairway and you will have a good look at birdie. There are a lot of elevation changes and some forced carries over canyons. They all look farther than they are and it should be no problem if you are playing from the appropriate tees. Overall this is a great course and the views are worth the price. I will return to play the North course.

The Pebble of the Southern California!

This is a gem hidden in the plain site. I've played most of the California Coast courses. And this one is one of the most beautiful places you can visit, and I would say is right behind that of any Coast Courses up in Monterey County that included Pebble and Spanish Bay.

The weather was perfect and the recent morning fog kept the South Course just perfect... this course calls for consistency and imagination while playing. For anyone that likes the game of golf this is one place to visit.

My group was shocked how perfect the place was/is and how playable it is. Great views and great sounds of the Ocean.... plenty of vistas that call for photograph.

This place is definitely worth the price of admission.

Perfect round with a deal

We got a 2 for 1 deal so only paid $135 which is well worth it for this course. Course was in amazing shape and the views were surreal. Only two knocks i would have is the lack of a putting green that's on par with the course/range and the complete lack of places to fill up your water bottle. Outside of that it was one of my favorite rounds Ive played, 5 stars
