About

Holes 18
Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6820 yards
Slope 132
Rating 72.8

Singing Hills Golf Club offers two 18-hole championship courses, Oak Glen and Willow Glen, as well as a 9-hole, par-3 course. The courses are tucked into a valley, surrounded by mountains and sloping hillsides that provide stunning backdrops on almost every hole. The Sweetwater River runs through the Oak Glen Course, coming into play on several holes including the memorable fifth hole, which is definitely a contender for one of the best par 4s in San Diego. This challenging hole requires an accurate drive across the river. The gently rolling terrain is sprinkled with mature trees. The layout features undulating greens and tight fairways. It is a challenging golf course but it is generally forgiving off of the tees, which makes it slightly less difficult than the hillier Willow Glen Course on property.

Good course poor pace of play

I’m 43 I’ve been playing here since I was a kid. They’ve put a lot of money into the course and done a lot to improve it. Great course for the price. The course is always in good condition. The pace of play has become terrible 5+ hour rounds every time no marshaling.

Good conditions on course

Slow moving with pace, holes are a bit on top of each other and somewhat expensive for this course. Very forgiving, fairways friendly staff, and kept up nicely.

Narrow course with people on your fairway every hole

Played a pre noon spot and by hole three we were backed up by 3 parties. Overall length of play was 5:25 due to the play on the first 9 (3 hours) not once did we see a marshal or talk to one. Course was pretty, well kept and narrow. Plenty of water features and bunkers to hop over. People are on your fairways hitting the other direction almost every hole. If I had a -1 for every ”Fore” I heard I’d have a spot at the pga tour.

Worth the green fee

Fairways and greens were in great condition, but the bunkers could use a little more sand. Pace of play, pro shop staff, golf carts and maintenance crew were all excellent. Would definitely recommend this course and will be returning in the near future.

Very nice course

The only thing I can criticize is that some of the fairways are close enough to cause some conflict with players overlapping onto adjacent fairways.

Very nice course. A little over priced.

Really nice course and a great experience. However, other courses in San Diego, with comparable conditions, would be about $20-$25 cheaper than this place. The facilities are fantastic, and the carts are fancy, so you’re paying for that.

Most of the course was in very good condition, but it was mainly the tee boxes that fell short of expectations. Personally I would take pristine tee boxes with average facilities than vice versa, but it’s still a nice course and enjoyable experience.

Oak Glen

I haven't played here in several years and was impressed with the (ongoing) aesthetic changes. Though a twosome riding, we seldom had to wait on the groups in front of us with nobody "pushing us". Greens and fairways in good shape, pace of play - under a 4-hour round.

Not worth the money

Paid $115 to play Oak today. Pay the play was extremely slow and the run was over five hours. Worse than that the greens were horribly bumpy and made putting more of a guessing game and players skill didn't really matter. Which day away at this point pending getting the greens and much better shape.

VERY slow pace of play

Course is beautiful, but pace of play was horrendous. 4 groups on every tee box starting at hole 3, and stayed that way for the rest of the round.
