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.

Weather factor

The weather was definitely a factor.(rainy, wet, cold and very windy) Friendly staff, pace was great!!! (see weather) Will have to comeback and get revenge on the weather. Love the elevation changes. First time for my buddy, he found a new love with this course.

Fair but challenging course layout

Course was in great shape. Greens were relatively fast but rolled true. Fairways were well manicured and the pace of play was excellent finishing in just under 4 hours.

Always in good condition

I always look forward to playing a round at Willow Glen. The course is always in good condition --especially now after we've had rain.

But most of all, this course has the best sand in the county --well drained, fluffy and deep --every trap!

Willow 16Jan17

Sycuan (Willow Glen) has always been a favorite of mine. Today was no exception. The associates are always helpful and friendly and the course remains in good shape even the recent rains did not leave the course in disarray. I wish the holiday golfers would fix their fresh divots/gouges on the greens.

Speaking of the greens they were fairly quick but rolled true, bunker play requires finesse with the soft sand and the fairways were there for the taking all carry until they are completely dry. A couple of holes have area’s under repair but not obtrusive. The carts are outfitted with GPS and a notice that the rates are increasing soon. This is a prime time to purchase the $75 gold club membership card…..not a bad deal if you play Sycuan three or more times a year.

I would recommend this course.

Happy NJ Visitors

After finding a rambunctious parking lot upon arrival, we were quickly able to confirm our reservation and get started. We had a reservation and did not have to wait to start. The help was great. It was Thanksgiving day and the number of staff people working was reduced. The snack bar was closed, but the refreshment cart came around a couple of times. Tee boxes,fairways and greens were all in good shape. The greens were a bit faster than we were used to,but we quickly adjusted. we would plan to play here again, especially with the GolfNow hot special. Other golfers we met along the way were friendly and very polite. We will be back.
