About
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.

would have had a better score of it wasn't for the first two holes Photo submitted by champ471 on 06/17/2014
Needs a lot of work
This is a great little course. Tough layout. But it needs a lot of work. Fairways to boxes greens… Not worth the money.
Great experience
I waited a few years having read the earlier reviews. Played today. Course was in good shape. Green were great. Tough front 9 (which I'd play differently next time), easier back. 51 + 40 for a 91 as a 14hcp. Played with two great guys. Great experience. Worth every penny. I recommend.
Carts
Nice new carts but brake was impossible to engage!!!
Forget the bad reviews
I am not an employee and I’m not sure what the “golf snobs” are talking about but this course is very nice. It does appear that there have been some major changes which in my opinion were well thought out. Fairways and greens were very good. Stay out of the deep stuff and you will enjoy your round. Food in the restaurant was amazing and the staff were very friendly. Yardage markers or GPS would be very helpful. Glad I decided to play here.
Golf
Liked golf course, sand traps need new sand. GPS on carts would also be nice!
Not Even Worth $35
Sucks would be a gratuitous word for this course. Willowick is in much better condition and it's only $53. Whoever is setting prices must be oblivious to the course conditions or living in fantasy land. Unless they drop their prices to below $40, I won't be back.
Play since improvements
This is the first time I played the course since the upgrades. The new Clubhouse is first class as well as surroundings. Of course condition is much improved over the months. I really have no complaints.
Not a bad OC Course
Played here despite the negative reviews. I think it's not bad, but you can maybe see what people were previously complaining about. 15 fairway doesnt seem to have been overseeded and is a little bit rough, and 18 green is almost burned out. Otherwise, it's in good shape. Most greens are nicely kept, soft, and smooth. The course is short even from the blue tees and it's tight, so you can't spray the ball around. Think of a better condition, slightly shorter less scenic Tijeras or a longer better condition Oso for slightly more $. The staff is super friendly and with more time the conditons may just keep getting better.
NOT worth the price
This course is not worth the price tag. Also, the 3rd hole has been under construction for like a year so the course plays shorter. They cut a par 5 into two holes to make up for the 3rd. Greens were fine but some of the fairways were garbage. The staff are great. Go play Oso Creek for $50 or Mesa Linda/Los Lagos for $75.
The Ditch
It’s still a ditch and the price does not match the course y’all are high
