Great well manicured course

Really enjoyed this course. Greens were perfect as were the fairways. Friendly staff, cheap beer. What more can you ask for. Challenging holes on the back nine.

Best back nine in Orange County

From your first welcoming hello, the staff is outstanding! Are the courses even better. While the front line is more of a typical neighborhood course, the back nine is well worth the wait! Trust me. From the bobcat we saw years ago, the views are worth the price alone, and the golf is an added pleasure. Immerse yourself and enjoy the total experience.

Brutal service and course conditions

I booked the tee time four days in advance. Never was told it would be path only or the course would be soaking wet due to over seed. Along with the range would be closed. Showed up and found all this out. Every person coming back from playing was complaining what a joke it was and their shoes covered in mud. Not once did anyone say sorry and they will get better. I always liked playing here but no way can I support this course after this. I know nothing will change because there was not one bit of understanding when I voiced my opinion

Way overpriced and a waste of money

To pay $150 for a course that's in the worst condition is robbery. The back nine has always attracted me to this course and I know they overseeded 2 weeks ago but the fairways are in terrible condition and not mowed. You can pipe a drive right down the center and not find your ball. And to charge $150 for the course in this condition is just robbery. Just stay away from this course. They think they're much more than they are.

Cart Path Only

They punched the greens a few days ago and cart path only. There was no notification on GN. Found out in the morning. Driving range was closed for whatever reason. Course was wet, muddy and rough was about a month overgrown. This was my second time playing here, first time was pretty good but this day was no bueno.

Cart girls were around every few holes which was nice.

Lunch after the round had a weird vibe inside.

The course was in excellent shape, layout was fun and challenging, practice area and driving range are top notch. Staff was friendly and the cart girl checked in on us 3x during the round. Price is a little high, but I will definitely return again.

Great Day @ Tijeras

Played as a foursome. 320p tee off on a Tuesday.

We had a great twilite round. Staff is all very friendly. Pro shop. Starter(s), bartender. All of them were great.

Teed off right @. 320p. Started off on 10. Pace was great. No real waiting on any shot. Sunset was 722p the day we played. Got in all 18. At least one group behind us finished as well. So maybe a 4:10 round. 4:15 at the most.

Course was in very good shape. Didn't see any bare spots. Greens were in great shape. Bunkers were sandy.

Saw the beverage cart a couple times. Drinking water on the course as well.

Five star course. One of OC's best. Highly recommended.

Course conditions getting worse!

The tee boxes are completely neglected, full of invasive grass and barely mowed.

Fairways are in awful shape, diseased grass or burned out.

Bunkers and greens were not bad.

They are charging way too much for these conditions . $190, not worth it.

Best thing about this course is the range, really fun with top range tech!

Course conditions have deteriorated

It might be the wrong time of year but tee boxes are in horrible shape and fairways need work. Bunkers were nice, greens were slow but in good condition.

Rates are higher than they used to be and course has not kept up.

Driving range has Topgolf technology which is pretty cool.

Good course, but use a lightweight bag

Good course, but use a lightweight bag - as you have to carry it a long way from bag drop to the range, etc - - not so good for an older golfer.

Lots of trash everywhere

Course conditions were nice, but there was trash and litter all over the course. Even the groundskeepers would see it and drive right over it without stopping, which is frustrating.
