Prepaid on Golfnow but golf club would not honor tee time

I prepaid $60 for a tee time at this course but when I showed up the course said they had no record of prepayment and wanted $95 to play. Even after speaking with Golfnow they would not honor the time. Golfnow refunded my payment but the course is not worth $95 so I left. Disappointed with both Golfnow and with golf course.

Okay course

Not sure if it was just the day we were there but the course was not in great shape. It was a difficult course where it was rare to hit off flat ground. The tee boxes were not well groomed, the fairways were brown in many places, and the greens were overwatered so they were damaged easily with pitch marks or people slamming their putters into them in anger. We were recommended this course many times and it didn't really live up to the hype. But if you are in the area and can get a deal, go ahead and play it, otherwise it is not worth the $80 typical green fee.

Guacamole

Got it for a hot deal. And, comparatively to the normal price, it was worth it. At normal price, if day they are reaching a bit. The sand traps are clay & garbage. The course absolutely needs to put some work into them. The greens ran true. A pretty good place and far enough to keep the LA rif-raft away. (Cause who wants to deal with those subhuman pepole?)

Pacific Ocean Breezes

Glen Annie golf club in the foothills above Santa Barbara is surrounded with palm trees, lemon and avocado orchards and stunning views of the ocean and islands. Located just minutes from the Santa Barbara airport this challenging course features cliff hanger tee boxes lofting over canyons and creeks , long manicured fairways dog legging around wildlife filled water hazards and ravines. Professionally maintained with kind and friendly staff with a cozy bar , fireplace and patios to enjoy dining and cocktails. Playing this course is like a vacation get away every time I play it.

Glen Annie vs others

Glen Annie’s views from several elevated tees of Goleta and the coastline are spectacular, and the course has enough good holes for my recommendation . I just wish it was an easier walk for most people, especially for us seniors, but it’s not.

Find a way to speed up the pace!

I understand slow rounds on the weekend but mid-week and it's still so slow I skipped 2 holes just because I couldn't hang on any longer. As others have mentioned the bunkers are terrible but the greens are great. It's on par with SB Muni and it should be better.
