Glen Annie Golf Club

Walked the Greens (6417/71.3/130) in 4H twilight, paired with Tyler. The weather was clear, fairly calm and around 75. This may be the toughest course to walk I have ever encountered. On numerous holes the next tee is a hike from the last green and especially the back is severely up/down hils. Enjoyed the tough layout. Wish I had seen several holes beforehand, would have played them differently. Hardly a straight hole to be found, tough driving course from the Green tees with numerous mature trees to shape shots around to get in prime position. Numerous blind shots down hills or around doglegs where course knowledge is essential. The Bermuda tees were mediocre. Par 3's were overly chewed up. Par 4/5 tees were lush... TOO lush. maintained so high I had a hard time getting a long tee to stick and allow me to tee drivers within an inch of my preferred heigth. The Bermuda fairways were lush and nice to play from, but also a little high for my taste. The rough had Bermuda, kukuyu and fescue and was generally nasty. At least a half club penalty. The sand traps had a decent amount of brown dirt/sand and were decently maintained. I thought they played alot better than they looked. The large bent greens putted medium speed and were smooth. I do not think I had a putt the entire round I played more than 1' of break on and saw the lines well. I made more than my share of putts in the 6' to 15' range, loved the greens! The customer service was good. $37 to walk twilight is steep. Saw the drink cart once. My advice would be that if you are thinking about walking and are not familiar with the layout beforehand, DON'T. I thought on first impression that 71.3/130 ratings were probably too low. Recommened, good playing conditions and a stern test.

Great time! Perfect weather. A great get-away from the heat in the Central Valley. Staff was friendly and attentive. The golf course was in good conditions and the green fast. The layout was challenging and you had to use some strategy off the tee. You didn't want to use the driver all the time. The only drawback from the Glennannies Golf Club was the warm-up facilities. Hitting off mats and small chipping area took away from the beautiful setting of the hills above Goleta Ca. Overall i'm coming back for another bichin day of challenging, but really fun golf.

It is quite a tough course. very tight fairways and difficult roughs without a lot of leeway if you are far off the fairway.

Rather enjoyed playing it and will be back. thick second cut but the greens were wonderful. a real variety of surfaces and the fairways were very good, firm and well maintained. A little expensive for a traveling hacker but well worth the experience.

Played with several of the locals and there is quite a tight knit group teeing off in the mornings (7:15-9:00). Great guys and a few women but all very accommodating and helpful in getting around the course. Shot my lowest score in some time.

Thanks for a good round.

At times the pace of play could be slower than usual.

Fairly well kept up but very friendly staff & great value for the money.

The course was in good shape, and the staff went out of their way to be personable and helpful.

Have played the course many times. The proximity of the course is great. Living near the course allows me to be home at a reasonable time.

Great deal on GolfNow. Charged me $15 for my wife to walk the course! Never had anything like that before.

The views of the ocean are awesome! The fairways are pretty dry. Challenging layout but most holes are not long. Walked the front 9 comfortably but transitioned into a cart for the back (lots of uphill holes).

Greens were in great condition. Very tough at times.

The bar had very cheap drinks and appetizers.

Service was really good.

Overall a great experience.

The course is very convenient for me to play since I live nearby. The local high school’s home course happens to play here. I was unfortunately playing at the time they were scheduled to play. Otherwise, the condition of the course is was good.

I’ve played the course many times. I’ve played either well or poorly, but it wasn’t the course conditions that were at fault. I think that Glenn Annie is a good course, but just doesn’t suit me. The weather was great and the course was in great condition.
