Rating 73.7

San Vicente Golf Resort sprawls across lush rolling hills in Ramona, though it is conveniently only 20 minutes from San Diego's many attractions. Situated in the Valley of the Sun, the golf course boasts scenic views of the surrounding mountains as well as temperate weather for most of the year. Ted Robinson designed the layout, utilizing the natural contours and features of the terrain. The golf course only measures to 6,633 yards from the back tees but it seems to play much longer because of the elevation changes throughout, which range from subtle to dramatic. The undulating nature of the landscape gives each hole a unique character. No two holes even vaguely resemble one another on this layout. San Vicente is not only for golfers though, there are also lighted tennis courts, two equestrian centers, and a year-round heated pool.

Slowest round

There was no starter and no marshal on the course. “Two groups” were in front of us that were actually all together. They were split into 4 and 2 off the first tee and then would just wait for each other on every tee box. I told the staff in the pro shop and his response was “ya we told them to split up”. These guys were not golfers. Half of them weren’t wearing golf attire. They drove on the wet fairways even though it was cart path only. They forgot clubs and head covers numerous times slowing down the pace even more. Normally I would have just skipped them but it would have been skipping 1-2 holes and it was my friends first time playing the course, so I wanted him to experience every hole. It took us five and a half hours to finish as a two some. Absolutely ridiculous. I again brought it up to the staff after the round and the guy could care less. Great course. Terrible staff.

First time at this course, overall, a solid and unique course design and layout. Golf pro shop was average and check in in process was smooth. First ability to find the holes was somewhat challenging at first. Water and sand are common on all holes and create unique shot making challenges. We played during a wind warning, so the variations were expected. Back 9 was a smoother and more straightforward layout. All greens were very fast and pin positions were challenging.

Positive course with average conditions in November.

Amazing greens

Very challenging green complexes. Extra large greens with serval tiers and challenging putts for sure

Pretty fair and short course- fairways a bit brown / dormant however the play was still very enjoyable

Worth the drive for a new track

Breaking putts

Strength of this course is their greens. Lots of elevated and undulating greens. Traps were in great shape with lots of sand, you will need the bounce in your sand wedge to be effective.
