Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan - Willow Glen
Rating Snapshot
About
Willow Glen is one of two 18-hole championship courses at Singing Hills Golf Resort at Sycuan (formerly known as Sycuan Resort), which also boasts an 18-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.

Rude
They don’t incentivize residence of San Diego County to come out there and play when they charge the same rate for a nonresident as a resident. There’s plenty of other courses in San Diego county they gave you the benefit of being a resident and give you the discount for living here the guy in the pro shop named Caleb was super rude on the phone and I would not play or go play somewhere else.
Willow
As someone who is older and who's distance has gotten shorter and shorter it would be really nice to have a fourth tee-box shorter than the whites but longer than the ladies teas
singing hills willow glen
Only problem, slow play of two groups in front of us, and marshal said they do it every week, and don't listen to him. But, beautiful course and conditions.
Nice course and good value
The guy that checked us in wasn’t very friendly but everyone else on the course and in the restaurant were very friendly and courteous. Nice bar and grill for 19th hole and the course was very nice. Our second time playing here when we visit San Diego and we will be back.
Great condition and pace of play.
First time playing course again after over 15 years. Great layout, conditions, and overall pace of play.
Best Bang For Your Buck!
As someone who plays a different course every week. This is still by far the best bang for your buck course. It f you pay this price any where else the conditions won’t be as nice. Pay of play can sometimes be a problem but they really country to keep it on track
Pace of Play for Weekday
Pace of play for early Thursday tee time was significantly slower for Willow Glen course. Waited a few minutes each hole to tee off. I've played course several times and hadn't experienced this slower pace previously. Chalk it up to an off day!
Fun round of golf
Course was in good shape, greens were nice and layout was nice as well... definitely will play again and recommend friends.
Great place to play. Friendly staff and really fun course.
Really enjoyed our first time at this course. Didn’t know much about it. It was a little bit tricky and in that way really fun. The greens were in great shape as were the fairways. A bit punishing to be off the fairways on some holes. I like that.
Pizza plate did slow down a bit towards the end which I often assume is going to happen at popular courses. People do slow down a little bit if there’s more than $.50 on the line I find. But overall a great place to play and very well taken care of easy to follow for a first time. The driving range is outstanding as well.
