About
Carlton Oaks Country Club is the only public Dye Design golf course in San Diego. The course is covered with hundreds of mature trees interspersed with sparkling blue lakes and meandering creeks. The layout offers a diverse mix of holes that all possess a unique character. They all offer different challenges in the form of either water hazards of strategically placed sand traps along the fairways. Tricky pot bunkers and interesting elevation changes were also incorporated into the design as well as Dye's signature railroad ties. There are five very different sets of tees that offer a challenging round from the back tees but also enough playability to appeal to a range of skill levels. In addition to the enjoyable layout, Carlton Oaks is one San Diego's most centrally located courses, sitting just minutes from downtown and many of the city's major attractions.

Santee Golf
Course was in decent shape. Good pace of play as it was not crowded.
Nice course
The condition of the course varies a lot from hole to hole, lacking proper maintenance
To the old guy who didn’t want to pair up and being a straight douche
Two solos paired up at the same time but when we met up at the first tee greeted him and asked him if he wanted to pair up to not hold up the pace, but old man said “I’m only playing nine HOLES!” Okay it’s a twilight round most likely we’re only gonna play nine obliviously. Old man still tees up on the blue tees and manages to loose every bal off the first shot plus waiting for group to clear off from 300 yards like he’s gonna blast a 3 wood off the rough like buddy you’re not. Overall course is getting way better and staff can’t be more friendly great vibe overall but old mans who thinks they pga pros just gotta face reality that you’re not him.
Interesting lay out, good course, but needs more management.
Great facility to practice other game, because the price range was great and somewhat challenging. Good experience.

Around the greens are great, tee boxes are too. Fairways still need work. No sand in bunkers. Also, how can restaurant have no cook at 2.30.
Very bad. Do not waste your money
my partner and I agreed that this is the worst course we have ever played on in our entire lives. This is over 30 years golfing in all parts of the world. The conditions were so bad. It’s like trying to golf in a gravel pit.
Course needs work
The fairways were in horrible condition, not groomed and lots of dirt patches.
The pace of play was so slow we couldn’t finish our round in 5 1/2 hours.
Still terrible conditions
Dead fairways, uneven tee boxes, gopher holes. Same old Carlton oaks. Ridiculous they charge $67 to play here on a weekday, maybe worth $30. I understand they don’t want to water anything but at least take a tractor out there and flatten all the gopher holes and bumps.
