About
Opened in 1929, Willowick Golf Course in Santa Ana is Orange County's oldest public golf course. It is a challenging layout that has garnered a quite a following over the years. The course features wide fairways and large greens that offer ample room. There aren’t any water hazards a few strategically placed sand traps come into play and there are also mature trees lining the fairways. Golfers will get to practice a variety of different shots on this course. It is player-friendly enough for high-handicappers but there are still some challenges for low handicappers. The excellent condition of the greens and fairways are inviting no matter what your skill level. In addition to the golf course, Willowick also offers a grass driving range and three practice putting greens.

Promising course but not taken care of
The fairways are worse than the rough on an average course. The bunkers are like cement (and no it did not rain recently). More than half the greens are patchy with huge chunks a couple inches deep in some places. There are some nice greens that are very good. Nobody calls fore at all and I was almost hit 5+ times but that’s not really on the course. However, after talking to others, it is apparently common for people who golf here to not call fore, ever. Little to no booze available and the bathrooms are in poor conditions. Use the money to actually fix the course because it appears maintenance doesn’t care and nothing is watered.
TOTALLY EXTREMELY VAD WIRST COURSE ...ITS MORE LIKE A FOOTBALL FIELD. TOTAL WASTE OF $ and TIME. BETTER TO SLEEP AT HOME. HORRIBLE TERRIBLE N HORRENDOUS😱😱😱
Bang for your buck
Greens are in ok shape and fairways are decent. When you want a cheap and fun layout during the weekdays, this should be your go to spot. Pace of play is quick. I am a fan for the price.
Nothing special
Conditions were trash. Nobody should lose balls on an open flat course like Willow. They could easily charge 25% more money if they put in 10% more effort. No type of grass should be longer than 6” even in the rough and OB.
Nice Qick Holiday Round
So pleased to get a great deal on a holiday. Surprised by the great pace of play. Maybe so hot that everyone wanted a quick round.
Willow wick
Horrible course, unmowed fairways and tee boxes, no directions to next hole. Fairways were like a tank obstacle course
Very few concrete cart paths, mostly goat trails
First and last time I’ll play here.
Don’t waste your time or money !!
Don’t waste your money
Horrible course, no signs to the next hole, unmowed tee boxes and fairways
Fairway is like an off rod obstacle course , very few cart paths,, they’re more like goat trails. Only good things were the greens, but even those had a lot of bald spots, the people in the pro shop were friendly but I will never play here again even if it was free!!
Don’t waste your time and money
Looking better
Overall the golf course is getting better and better. I have played there for a few months and I have seen much improvement on the greens. What ever you guys are doing, is working. Thanks. Great course...
