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.

Very nice layout

I really enjoyed this course, it is nestled in the oaks with some nice blind shots. At hole 16 there was a covey or herd or flock, not exactly sure what to call the group, but there were 11 full sized wild turkeys glaring at us as we approached; it was amazing. The layout has good elevation changes with some grip it and rip it driving holes. In regards to the course, the biggest negative was some of the greens were very diseased and even short putts were not sure things.

Now for the dirt, there was too much of it in some of the fringed fairways, we agreed to clean and place even though it was not raining; had to move my ball three or four times to put it on some grass.

In regards to the staff; for some reason they staff behind the counter are not very friendly, I wonder if smiling is against course policy. For the most part, they do not seem to want to help, i have been there twice and both times it seemed that i was burdening them with my reservation and questions. Two different people at two different times and no other people in the club house. The course personnel were very nice, the gentleman with the cold water was a great treat.

All in all, i would recommend this course and will definitely play there again.

Nice friendly course

Nice course for the intermediate player. Offers some challenges especially that there are par 5's, My husband a weekly player really enjoyed the challenges, I found many holes long and difficult, but I only golf 4-5 times a year. Definitely would come back. Great bar for a drink after golfing.

Loved it

I was a single on vacation and paired with three great people that had played the course. I loved this course! It was beautiful and in great shape. One of the great scenic holes had a mountain behind it with snow on top of the mountain. Got a great deal on golfnow and would definitely play again if back in the area.
