Length 6820 yards
Slope 132
Rating 72.8

Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan (formerly known as Sycan Resort) 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 from Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan.

Great place

All together this place was really fun. It has a good driving range and real nice chipping area. There three putting greens so you can dial in your putting. The course has a good layout, though a couple look a lot like the others. The fairways and greens were in good shape an the ruff was kept at a playable length. I would come back.

The staff in the pro shop and bar we're friendly.

Great course....staff needs training

Great facilities, unfortunately there is a certain attitude by some of the staff in the restaurant and Pro-Shop that could be better. If they are serious about having a top notch facility they will need to train the staff, it is important to have good and friendly service in the hospitality industry.

Wonderful Place to play golf

The carts have GPS and a place to wash your clubs and golf balls. The course is great as long as you can keep your shots down the middle. Just enough trees, sand, water and natural obstacles to make it a challenge. The greens are well kept and, at times, a bit tricky. The only fault I could find was the sand in one bunker was damp and made for an interesting problem getting out. Great staff and beautiful location.

Great Course

I really enjoyed my round. I was a single and played with a couple of guys who had played it before. The course is challenging with fairly large greens. The greens were a little slow but other than that I would definantly play again.

Excellent Golf Course!

I would say it is one of the nicest golf course I played. It's flat but the greens are in great shape. Well worth my time.

A Nice Round

The course layout has a mix of straightforward holes and few more interesting holes. For the most part though, what you see is what you get.

The course conditions were typical for Sycuan and much better than many courses in SD. The fairways were fairly lush by SD public golf standards. The greens were mostly consistent and rolled true. If you can get GIR's you should be able to roll in a few putts for birdie.

I've always been treated with good customer service here.

I recommend this course. While the terrain is similar between the two 18 hole courses on the property, if you care about aesthetics, then play Willow Glen since it is a little more beautiful.

Amazing price for Sycuan!

I've always felt that the 2 big boy courses at Sycuan are generally overpriced. However, I've seen some great Hot Deals on Oak Glen recently so I indulged to the amazing tune of $16 at 1pm. Since it wasn't too busy, the starter let me out a half hour early by myself and I was able to finish in 3:15. Course is in great shape and the greens were especially good... medium fast. I believe they are aerating next week so better jump on that Hot Deal!
