Carlton Oaks Lodge & Country Club

Worst course I’ve played in San Diego over 20 dollars. Green’s are terrible, fairway is a dirt patch, there is no rough … just more dirt. Don’t go here. I’d give this 0 starts if that was an option.

The layout is cool and could be a good course if they did ANY maintenance over the last decade.

The course played quickly. I was playing as a single and didn't catch the single in front of me until the 11th hole. Course could use more water but the greens were in great shape.

This used to be such a gem of a public course in San Diego. The Pete Dye design once showed greatness, but lack of care and investment in the ownership has really let this place go down the toilet. Dirt patches and gopher holes. Fire ants all over the greens and uneven tee boxes. Simply put - it’s a disaster.

I’m trying my best to be informative and put this nicely… but ownership of Carlton Oaks… PLEASE figure your $@!+ out and reinvest in the property. The layout of the course is amazing and has potential to be the best public course in greater San Diego county, but the lack of care (aka lack of water and maintenance) has destroyed this once-great golf course.

I will not be back until something changes… which is a real bummer because it’s close to home and was always one of my favorite courses to play growing up.

Don't waste your money it's not even really golf it's more you need a chiropractor after the round worst golf course in the world.

Pace of play was so horrible we ended up leave after hole 10. We were waiting around 10 minutes every hole . Sometimes longer. Also the course is just in horrible shape. Roller my ankle multiple times do to holes everywhere. Fair ways are basically one big bunker. No matter where u land u are hitting from dirt . Green were not well kept either

Being an avid experience golfer I usually golf every Sunday. I have golfed to Carlton up many times over the years. The trend seems to be that young inexperienced or First Time Players are taking over this course. 1:30 tee time on Sunday and starting from the second hole we had a pair of extremely disrespectful young men cutting back and forth across the golf course through hole 11 where they were finally escorted off the course. I never saw them play one shot just driving around at full speed jumping their cart and dragging the ropes for the out-of-bounds and do not cross the cart area warning Stakes. This is how experience respectful golfers end up going to jail. One more time passed me and I would have probably been in an altercation with these punks. Carlton Oaks staff, take note. If you want Young intoxicated inexperienced and first time golfers, you got it.

This is the worst Course in San Diego, I basically need a chiropractor after playing this of course. There's no Fairways left and the owners are not doing anything to keep it up. $83 is absolutely ridiculous for this course it's worth about $10. I will not play this course ever again. It's so bad it makes you angry that the owners will allow this once beautiful course go to waste.

Fairways have no grass and the carts are falling apart. It's in horrible condition.

The price should be $30

Really need to work on getting rid of all the dusty sand everywhere. Lots of bare spots. Greens good. Tee boxes so so. Overall ok.
