Type Resort
Par 72
Length 6651 yards
Slope 128
Rating 72.3

Willow Glen is one of two 18-hole championship courses at Singing Hills Golf Club, which also boasts a 9-hole, par-3 course. Nestled in a valley between lush hillsides, the golf courses all offer stunning mountain views. The mountains also help to block the wind, which allows for more agreeable playing conditions. Willow Glen is slightly more challenging than the other championship course due to a hillier terrain and more fairways that are tightly lined with mature pines, oaks, and cottonwoods. The trees shape the landing zones and add definition to the doglegs. Proper placement off the tees is necessary for doing well on this course. Contoured mounding borders the greensides as well as more than 40 bunkers. Water also comes into play on six holes. The 11th through the 15th holes are an impressive stretch that presents a variety of challenges as well as unrivaled scenery.

Good course!

As always playing Singing Hills is fun. The course is well maintained and the staff is friendly. The only criticism I have is the cart GPS is so cluttered with messages from the club house that you feel like just turning it off. I had to clear the message at least 40 times for an18 hole round.

disgraceful customer service in proshop

If you like disgraceful customer service in the pro shop, play at sycuan. I arrived an hour earlier than my tee-time and in the interests of playing by myself to avoid contact with the other golfers for covid reasons, I asked to go out earlier Even although there were no golfer's with scheduled tee-times for over an hour prior to my teetime, they would not let me tee off earlier than my scheduled teetime. Obviously sycuan has no interest in promoting customer safety in the current covid environment. So play at sycuan if you want risk your health with covid.

Disappointed all around

This review is for current course conditions and would change if they took care of the course better. I have played here over a dozen times and honestly, this is the worst I've seen it. Maybe it's due to Covid, but considering it is tied to Sycuan Casino, you would think this course would be in better shape. As far as Casino courses go, this one is pretty disappointing. Way too much dirt and different types of grasses in the fairways. What's the point of hitting a fairway if you aren't getting good grass in the fairway. It entirely defeats the purpose. Greens are a little over grown, soft and and slow. Bunker sand is terrible. I'd call it somewhat soft dirt. Overall this course has fallen off consideribly. I would NOT pay for anything other than a twilight rate here. Step your game up Sycuan.

Worst Golf Experience I’ve Ever Had

If you want stereotypical resort golf where the course is extremely packed and you can get 18 in in about 5.5 hours. This is the place for you. Worst pace of play of all time.

awful green condition

This is one of my favorite course, so I invited 6 my friends over there. I wanted to celebrate one of my friends birthday. We all were disappointed by the slow green and awful fairways.

Slow green

This course was one of my favorite, but it was not as good as it used to be.

The greens were slow, and fairways were not good to play.

Always very good

Greens were way too slow, please mow more frequently. Could have used a marshall to keep groups in front moving to avoid a 5 hour round.

not up to par

we played this course many times, however, this time, the condition of the course was not up to par. The greens are soft and very slow. We are very disappointed! There is hardly any rolls in the fairway even with patches of dry spots. wont play here for a while.

Advertising is misleading

I love the course but they always put down a price range of $25 to $105 but they never offer the course for $25. Kind of a misleading ad and they should just put down the truth that the least they charge is $50. Also the manager in the Red Tail restaurant,. Armando,r gets 5 stars for great service and always friendly. However the other manger, Annette, could use a attitude adjustment she's not very welcoming for someone in the "hospitality" business.

Decent course

This is a nice course although there was a lot of grass around the greens that was at least a foot high. It makes it impossible to find your ball, and it's dangerous to look for it with all the rattlesnakes lurking around.

Great Course

Loved this course. Had a good mix of challenging holes. Staff was great, only issue was the driving range was closed...not much we can do about considering the pandemic, so no harm no foul, just took a few holes to warm up! Would play this course again in a heartbeat!
