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.

Little sister is in great shape!

I played Oak Glen on Wed and found it mostly in great shape. The greens were beautiful (medium speed) and the fairways were immaculate. My only whine on the course condition was that the sand in the two greenside "Archies" that I visited was hard as a rock. There was a tournament ahead of my group and the tee markers except for the tips, were not set up. Oak Glen, while not as sexy as bigger sister Willow Glen, is a fun play (at the right price) ! Sycuan is a very nice resort with a very friendly and helpful staff.

First Time Playing

Had a very nice experience with the whole resort type of condition. I will make it a must play again soon.

Course layout was challenging. I like the greens even though they were punched about a month ago. Tee boxes were level and well maintained. Looking forward to playing it again, and recommend to make it a weekend retreat, the resort is a great place to hang out.

Slow play

Course was in great shape. The only bad part of the day was the slow play. Every hole had 2 sometimes 3 groups on them. Easy 5.5 hours of play. One of the longest rounds of my life. Course was very nice thought, sand was fluffy and greens rolled true.

Oak Glenn, Sycuan is a great course and friendly staff.

Great course for me and my wife, we played the forward tees (red/burgundy), and it was challenging and fun for our skills. Oak Glenn, Sycuan did not gave me stress while playing Golf. Since it was a Wednesday, game traffic was non existent, the staff was very cordiall and helpful. I will definitely check out Golfnow .com for inexpensive Tee time for myself and my wife. We love the course.

Good course

Good course. Not hard, well maintained. Very pretty. No "Wow" factor unfortunately. I kept waiting for a signature hole or something to "pop" as far as design but, every hole was just like the next. However, the. GPS on the carts was very cool, even had flyby views.

Multiple golf courses to choose from are all excellent

I am an average recreational golfer with a 20-24 handicap. If I shoot bogey golf I'm pleased with my game. The course I played on was Oak Glen with wide enough tree lined fairways and contoured challenging greens. Excellent condition greens with soft landings. Not too many bunkers and none which guard the front of the green. It was a slow play but also it was a Friday and This course has a lot of fans. Enjoyed the outing.

Great walking course in good shape.

Course is well designed for the walking golfer. Tee boxes close to preceding green. Overall the fairways were in good shape with just a few bare patches. Greens were in good condition and varied between challenging and easy, offering opportunities for birdies.

Nice, but fairways need some work

Greens were in excellent shape, but the fairways were patchy and in winter condition. Other than that, the course is in great shape. Pace of play was great and the beverage cart was around often

Great greens, shame about the fairways

The Oak Glen course is in okay condition, with some of the fairways rather patchy and some indifferent lies from good shots. The greens, however, were immaculate and really quick. Checking in was easy, even though the place seemed busy. Pace of play was fine, we were round in bang on four hours, so the number of people playing did not cause any problems. Will be back to play Willow Glen on Thursday.

A very enjoyable course to play.

Just enough callenges , but not brutely tough. very attractive to the eyes in letting you see your target to shoot for. Have played Pine Glenn and Willows for 7 years , but this was the first time on Oak , and I cannot wait to play again. Thank you for a very well maintained set of courses .

Outstanding course. Challenging, but fair.

Course is always in great shape. I played Willows Glen for the third time and still find it challenging but fun.
Some very nice views from some of the higher elevations, and some very challenging approaches. High risk/reward.

Nice Course for the bucks thru Golfnow.com

I play these courses, they have three at Sycuan, one par three for the short game and two regulation. I play them about every quarter and find the shape the courses in are above average, the folks in the pro shop are cordial, but not over friendly.
