Pace of play keeps being the problem

Great course , but pace of play still the issue.

However, I learned that Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays morning , they is a senior tournament in the morning , so I guess after 11:00 am pace of play should be good . Will try to avoid those slots in the future

Definitely improving

Great course but not for the week of mind. This place will beat you up if you stop grinding even for a moment. But there has been some improvements and you can see the folks are trying hard to provide a great experience.

Good pace of play-hard course

I booked an am tee time which is hard to get on a Saturday in the South Bay. Course, staff and course amenities are first class. If you are not a good golfer, this course is not for you. Hilly, windy and difficult holes define this course. Bring a lot of balls, because unless you hit it straight, you will lose all of your balls. Beautiful country and nice staff.

Great Course/Great Price

My only issue was I did not know the greens had recently been airrated.

Would have been nice to know.

Other than that, it was great!

Not good

Would have been nice to know they had sanded the greens the day before play. No notification from TeeOff. Absolutely awful. Course website had discounted fees but NOT TeeOff! Play here many times and always good. This time…Just miserable.

Eagle Ridge Transition

Eagle Ridge is a Great track, but the maintenance staff cannot keep up the deteriorating condition of the Eagle Ridge. It's my recommendation that Eagle Ridge shrinks their irrigation footprint and transitions to a desert style golf course with a targeted Single line irrigation system. This will save on water costs and give the maintenance staff a chance to keep up the condition of the course. Also with a smaller irrigation footprint, Eagle ridge would be able to manicure and double seed, and consequently compete with Coyote Creek and Cinnabar Hills for Members. Attached is an of a Naturalist Golf course.

Much Improved

Haven’t played for a few years at ER due to course conditions. Sand traps are all playable now w nice sand. Most of the greens are in very good to excellent condition running fast and true. There are still “spotty” grass areas in some fairways and aprons, which should be played ground under repair. Lastly there are wild pigs rooting up some of #8. These are all repairable and I will return. Fun track.
