Shorecliffs Golf Course wanders through the coastal canyons and valleys of San Clemente, heading towards the beautiful shoreline. Situated just steps from the ocean, the course enjoys cool ocean breezes and a temperate climate, which makes it a year-round haven for golfers. Its location also provides the golf course with plenty of scenic ocean views. The course features narrow fairways tightly lined with trees and small greens bordered by sand bunkers. The front nine is shorter and requires more accuracy than the longer, wider back nine. Shorecliffs opens with one of the trickiest par-5s in the area. This dogleg left hole features trouble both left and right. Although the layout does offer a fair challenge, players of all skill levels will feel comfortable taking on the golf course.

Good place to practice

Heavy construction underway. Greens were good though and the Fairways overall were fine. Good place right now to work on your game.

Front Nine Under Major Construction

Course layout is interesting and maintenance is diligent. The whole course, however, is under major reconfiguration, with your gps course guidance of little help. The first nine holes offer quite a challenge to navigate through construction field. No serious round should be planned, but worthwhile for fun with a quick round due to less golfers around on the course.

Wasted time

I wish golf now would warn people of course conditions. This course is not playable. Construction everywhere hard parking no amenities whatsoever. Play discourse many times with perfect greens I was so disappointed. They didn't even say much in the pro shop other than they were slow. They were aerated. Again I wish golf now would warn about these type of conditions. Wish they would give me my money back, I think I'm going to stop booking on golf now for a while
