Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Oak Glen
About
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.

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.
Condition A
Course was in great condition. Fairways and greens were near perfect. Very enjoyable!
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.
ALWAYS IN GREAT SHAPE AND THEY KEEP IT MOVING
BEAUTIFUL DAY, GREAT GREENS,AND THE CARTS HAVE THE DISTANCE TO HOLE MONITORS
Very nice
The course was in excellent condition after all our rain. Played Tuesday afternoon so course was quiet. We had no one behind us the entire game. A very good deal thru GolfNow.
Perfect Saturday
Two foursomes with tee times just before noon. Perfect weather for golf. Course was in great shape. Recent rains have really helped a course that is always in good shape anyway. Staff is always nice and courteous. Pace of play was just about right. Had a little trouble with a twosome that was behind our two foursomes. Of course, we were two foursomes in front of a twosome on a Saturday! Nuf said. It always hard to choose between Oak and Willow. Great venue overall.
A fun day of golf
Our tee time was at 1 PM, the weather was great, the course was in great condition. We felt like we were the only players on the course as there was no one ahead or behind us all day. We played in 3 1/2 hours and had a great time.
Course is improved
Hadn't played this course in over 10 years. Was pleasantly surprised at the shape of the course. The greens were excellent, especially for February. Sorry to say I found out the sand is good in the bunkers, I was in four of them. Played as a twosome on a busy course, finished the round in three hours twenty minutes. Excellent burger and good draft beer selection (and full bar) at the cocktail lounge after the round. This entire facility has improved quite a bit since I last played here.
Solid track
Course is in great shape currently with all of the rain we've recently had (best i've ever seen it). Greens roll slow but smoothly. Have some undulation to them which can create easy misreads. Fairways are in terrific shape. I am a low handicapper as well.
all around A++
if you can get this course for 20/25 bucks great deal.carts have great GPS.greens are perfect.early mid week is best.
Sycuan does not want Golf.now players.
I have played Sycuan Resort many times over the last few year's, but my last experience was not good. The guy in the pro shop was very rude when I checked in and told me they do not let golf.now players have their own cart, they must ride with other golf.now players. This was a midweek golf round and the course was not crowded at all. I enjoy playing golf with new people, but not sitting next to the wrong person for 4 hours. I played oak glen and it was in great shape, the fairways where overseeded and the greens rolled true. They are cutting back on the grass area off the fairways and installing mulch and drought plants. If you decide to play Sycuan resort I would recommend that you pick Willow glen course, it has a better layout and plays a few strokes harder.
