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.

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!

Great course

Had fun on this great course catching up with an old friend. I just wish my drives were a bit straighter, as the fairways are pretty narrow. Beautiful and well maintained course and friendly, attentive staff.

Up to and touching

I’m glad that I had a chance to play on 1Apr’17 because Oak provides just the right amount of difficulty the kick start my game. The meandering fairways will lull you into a false sense of security just to tuck you behind a tree, secure your ball in a blanket of sand or gently drop you into a water hazard. I like Sycuan and if I were to claim a home course this is it. The staff treats you as though you are a club member, there carts are very nice and comfortable and the grounds are pristine. The ground crews are top notch in my book. Normally, I don’t provide commentary on the 19th hole but Sycuan has one of the nicest and well-appointed lounges for golfers in addition to their separate restaurant, when in the golfers lounge try the fish-n-chips with smoked vinegar topped off with an ice cold draft. Nough-said!

March 2017

Course was in great shape. A great walk as well. If you're an avid golfer suggest playing around 2pm, and maybe consider playing your front nine twice. You can get some quality time alone working on your game, Sycuan is great for that. Docked a star cause pace of play can be hit or miss here, literally got paired with a elderly guy who needed 2 drives and a 3 wood to reach a 400 yard par 4, and still came up short. If you have your own foursome this is a hot spot for a fun round.

Fun course but could use improvements.

Greens were slow and far too soft. Majority of pin locations were less than ten feet from edge of green which is really stupid. Not as nice as Willows course, play was slow and never saw a ranger. I believe some overseeding would help the fairways too which were a little sparse in some areas. I didn't like oak trees blocking ball path entrance to several greens either. Not a 4 star course.
