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.

Course in great shape

The greens and fairways on Oak Glen were in great shape. The golf carts have leather seating and the GPS worked great. Pro Shop Attendee was a little short and did bare minimum to make sure it was a good experience. Starter was friendly. Cart girl only showed up once during the round and not until the back 9 with a 10:30 start time. Good value and course in much better shape than some other public courses in San Diego.

Absolute Beauty

We played this course on a Sunday. It was so fun and beautiful, we played it 2 more times in 5 days. The course was in great shape and the greens rolled true. Everyone was so friendly and helpful. We ate the restaurant once for lunch and the patio was very nice, service was great and the food was delicious as well as a fair price. Highly recommend this course.

Oak

Played the Blues (6594/71.8/127) as a 3some with Eric & 140ver in slightly more than 4H using Forelinx. The weather was clear, calm and in the mid 70's, very nice! Thanks Mike G. for a fun round! A common theme on this tree lined layout is penalty stoke hazard and trees left and trees right on hole after hole. Most of the holes are relatively straight. The layout is tight in places with a few elevation changes and enough water and red staked ravine hazards to keep you honest. The tees were fairly lush and in good shape overall with few unrepaired divots. Most of the over seeded fairways are lush and well maintained with few divots. A couple were more winter thin. The rough is winter thin, with some lush areas to go along with hardpan and wood chips mixed in under and around the hundreds of trees that line the fairways. The sand traps were hard packed with fine sand. However, they are too thin in many spots. The greens putted medium fast and were mostly smooth. They putted nice and held approach shots very well. However, a few had hydraulic leak damage and a couple had some bare spots around the edges. They recently resodded all the fringes with dormant Bermuda that is now becoming nice to play off of and is a huge improvement. The customer service was excellent from everyone encountered. Drink cart around numerous times. A negative here is that they did not renew their GPS contract, so you no longer get yardages on the GPS on the carts. Solid but unspectacular layout containing 18 good golf holes in better than average condition. Recommended = Yes.

OK

Good value for the money. Course was green and lush which is sometimes hard to find in these times of drought.

They have cut back on some things (GPS in carts not operating) but all-in-all good.

Inferior Glen

I thought the Oak Glen 18 was/is inferior to the Willow Glen course. Conditions were not as good, nor is the layout as interesting. The duck/mud hen droppings on several tee boxes was quite obnoxious.

A few impossible holes

I think my main gripe is with the par 3 over water that has a tree blocking flight to the green. I get shot shaping but it should not be requirements just to get it onto a playable surface.
I also played in a downpour which showed that the greens drain really well and there was hardly any pooling of water other than a few of the bunkers.
A great course overall and I look forward to playing it in better weather conditions.

Where's the sand?

Very surprised when we found our balls in some of the bunkers and instead of being on the beach, we were basically playing off of hard pan -- no sand!

The very tight lies combined with the fast greens made for a less than enjoyable couple of holes.

It is not known if this was true for all bunkers either fairway or green side but for the 2 the reviewer found himself in, it was painful.

All other aspects of the experience was very good.

worth the trip on a beautiful day

we played around noon and had a member join us. We never waited to hit. The layout is interesting but not tricky. Greens have undulation and are in great shape. Honestly, the fairways were also in nice condition.

Had a great round. the blues actually play less than 6590, as you get good roll out.

Would go back in a minute.
Nice ride out from La Jolla area. 40 minutes.

Sycuan Oak Glen

Played the Blues (6594/71.8/127) as a 3some with Rudy & Riah in 4H, 45M on a busy Saturday afternoon using Forelinx. The weather was partly cloudy in the mid 60's with a gentle breeze, excellent golf weather.

The tees were lush and in very nice shape, few unrepaired divots.

The over seeded fairways are near immaculate. Lush and well maintained with few divots.

The rough was more winter thin, with some lush areas to go along with hardpan and wood chips mixed in under and around the hundreds of trees that line the fairways.

The sand traps were well maintained with fine sand. However, they are too thin in many spots.

They recently resodded all the fringes with dormant bermuda that is now becoming nice to play off of. Huge improvement!

The greens were mostly smooth and medium fast. They putted nice and held approach shots very well. However, a few had hydraulic leak damage and a couple had some bare spots around the edges.

The customer service was excellent from both Julie in the Pro Shop and Gary the starter. Drink cart around numerous times. A negative is that they did not renew their GPS contract, so you no longer get yardages here. This course was in very good condition overall. Most of the holes are relatively straight. A common theme on this layout is penalty stoke hazard and trees left and trees right.

Sycuan Oak Glen

Played the Blues (6594/71.8/127) as a single in 3H, 5M after a frost delay using Forelinx. The weather warmed up and was in the mid 50's by the time I finished, clear with a little breeze.

Most of the holes are relatively straight. A common theme on this layout is penalty stoke hazard and trees left and trees right. The tree lined layout is tight in places with a few elevation changes and enough water and red staked ravine hazards to keep you honest. I thought the rating and slope were a little low, it played longer than the scorecard yardage indicated.

The tees were lush and in very nice shape, few unrepaired divots.

The over seeded fairways were lush and well maintained with few divots.

The over seeded rough was generally lush, with some hardpan and wood chips mixed in under and around the hundreds of trees that line the fairways.

The sand traps were mediocre. Crusty and thin in spots.

They were in the process of resodding all the fringes with dormant bermuda. The ones they have finished were lightly sanded and should be excellent in 7-10 days. A couple of holes they had removed the old fringe and it was dirt waiting on the new sod. Looked really odd seeing a lush green ringed with smooth dirt.

I never did get the speed of the greens down. They were quick, borderline fast, smooth and held approach shots very well. I was running the ball consistently by the hole the entire round.

The customer service was excellent. They let me start alone on #3 since I had other tee times later and I played unimpeded. I had a good breakfast burrito and coffee while waiting out the frost delay, $11 before tip.

This course was in very good condition overall, everything but the traps were well above average. Solid but unspectacular layout containing 18 good golf holes in much better than average condition. Recommended = Yes.

Great value

The facilities at Sycuan are top notch. I always enjoy playing there however, I found the course to usually be to 'wet'. But I think now, with the drought they are not putting as much water on the course and I actually like it better.

Great course.

I have always liked Oak Glen

The three Sycuan golf courses are always well maintained and friendly. Oak was in very good shape, especially considering the drought. Being able to take advantage of hot deals on short notice, we were able to play w/cart for a third of the regular price. That made this a killer deal and a great afternoon on the course. Fairways had good cover, greens were fast, occasionally spotty but true and pin placements providing moderate challenge.

Birthday golf

Played here for first time on my birthday to try a new course, and I had a great experience. We ran into a few slower couples that hung things up a bit, but I wasn't in much of a rush, so it was okay. Weather was brutally hot this week, but we came late enough in the day where it wasn't terrible. Course was challenging but fair, and I got my lowest score ever on a 18 hole par 72. Staff were great, friendly, and helpful. Would recommend and play here again.
