Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Oak Glen

About
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.

Overpriced for the value
Love the layout and design of this course. For the price of $100 I feel they could improve the tee boxes and bunkers. We also got stuck behind 3 ladies that were taking their sweet time and had almost a 2 hole gap in the group in front of them….no Marshall in site. You can play a lot nicer courses in the area for less money.
Our Favorite Local Course
We have played here for years now. Our favorite course is Oak Glen. There’s so much to say about the courses overall. (I say it mostly in the many pictures I take and post on Yelp.) It’s so picturesque. The landscape has always been beautiful and well taken care of. But now there’s more gorgeous water features, waterfalls and ponds. It may mean more trouble to avoid and ways to lose a ball, but it’s so pretty to look at.
The course itself is so well manicured. The greens are smooth and pretty consistent overall. The tee boxes can sometimes have small spots to avoid but are mostly in good condition. The facilities are clean and nice. Good to know for potty stops! The carts are conveniently equipped with fantastic GPS screens that are very accurate. A great feature to have in very comfortable carts. And we can always know there will be a cart girl coming around for us to pick up a Gatorade or something to eat as needed. There is a good selection from which to choose.
I know there is even more work being done around the courses, but it’s worth whatever temporary inconvenience there might be to make things even better. It’s great to see the ownership really investing into making this place a golfer’s choice destination. And we are so thankful that we are able to find great deals so we can regularly enjoy Sycuan (affectionately aka Singing Hills) Golf Course!

Thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Oak Glen.

Where's the Marshall
An eightsome playing in front of us slowed down the entire field. Where was a Marshall to cut this off?

Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Oak Glen.

Construction Work Still in Progress
While all of the holes are open, it bears mentioning that they are still doing construction work on this course. Of course, they are still charging full price and won't mention any of this to you before you head out. The course is in decent shape.

Thank you for taking the time to review our business. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the ongoing construction work on the course, and we appreciate your feedback.
Fun course to play
Course was in good shape. Interesting holes & a fee water features. Bent grass green were nice and in good shape. Sand traps were ok.

Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate your business. Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Oak Glen thanks you!
Excellent value
Although my score may not reflect it, my golf outing yesterday was one of the best in memory! Oak Glen is beautiful, well kept, and has excellent greens. I like water hazards, of which there are several, but they were neither greedy or stingy, and I actually left the course without losing a ball!
The pace was perfect! No waiting on the group in front of us, and no one waited on us. The carts are very smart and worked very well, including distance to the hole, club head and ball cleaners, and plenty of seed mix for divot repair
In addition, everyone I met was very pleasant. The only changes I would make are:
1. The snack bar provide healthier snacks and larger water bottles.
2. The driving range allow for teeing off.

Great Course. Too slow
Singing Hills is an awesome place to golf. The scenery is beautiful and the course is well-kept. Of course it’s under construction but for a good reason. The staff is always very accommodating and friendly. The amenities are awesome.
The only complaint I have is that the Marshall‘s are not doing a good job of moving slow players forward. There are so many beginner players out there that don’t understand etiquette, or the pace of play. I have been behind groups that fall to two holes behind because they don’t know what they are doing. A little education from the Marshall could help these people improve their pace. There are a lot of parents out there, teaching eight year old kids, how to golf during their round. Education needs to happen on the driving range and the par three courses. There are adults that shouldn’t even be golfing on a long course. But with a little help from the Marshall, they might learn to pick up after 10 strokes and go to the next hole.

Thank you for your review. We will pass along your experience and feedback to our team at Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Oak Glen. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
