Length 6594 yards
Slope 127
Rating 71.8

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 an 18-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.

Our Fave Local Course

We love this course. It’s where we play on a regular basis. The Oaks Course is well-layed out and relaxing. The new water features really add to what was already a beautiful course. But, it is even better now. So many scenic views and panoramas.

The staff is always friendly, helpful and ready to help make our time enjoyable. The snack cart service is pretty dependable to drive up 2-4 times a round. We’re thankful to be able to fill our cart coolers with ice on both sides, one for the hub and one for me! Those mini cart coolers are a great feature. (Just ask for the ice.) We always gotta keep our electrolytes supply filled. The course bathrooms are roomy, clean, tidy and never lacking supplies. I appreciate this. It has a good reflection on the whole venue.

Can’t forget, we do love the wildlife in this peaceful valley. Besides the usual squirrels n bunnies n turtles, there are plenty of feathered friends such as busy woodpeckers, soaring hawks and elegant white and blue herons.

The carts are super comfy and well equipped w/ interactive GPS screens, food ordering, plenty of storage spaces and fold out windshields as needed. And the USB charging ports are so convenient for my iPhone which is always on as I use my Golfshot Plus app for keeping track of the games and scores. I keep a short cable in my bag. The seats are high quality leather, though would even be better without the unnecessary “hump” in the middle. But that’s a minor concern.

The cost is competitive especially for a Golf Course / Country Club like Singing Hills aka Sycuan Golf resort where the greens and fairways are always beautifully managed. But, with as often as we play, we are very grateful for the discounts that are offered as a Golfpass+ member.

Fun Course

Played an early afternoon tee time with my 12 year old daughter. Both she and I are newer to golf. The course layout was a perfect challenge for us with some water, well placed bunkers, and some fast greens.

The staff is super friendly and the driving range and practice putting green was a great warm up.

Singing hills a solid choice

Enjoyed playing the Oak course. Surprised that so many changes to water features have been made since last time I played there over 10 years ago. Only suggestion I make would be with pin placements on the par 5s. They were on the edge. Final note,they have leveled all the rooms/ and half of the Pine course to build of all things, a soccer facility with 5 fields. ???? Good luck on that one!!!

Greens were recently aerated but still rolled well. Fairways were nice. Sand traps were crusty and needed more sand.

Greens are sanded and shaggy

Love the money they put into the course but at the moment they have sanded the greens on Oak and let them grow out. Every putt snakes side to side and bounces around. I received no heads up or discount.
