Fun course

Overall it’s a fun course to play, don’t need your driver more than 2 holes maybe. Long irons/fairway woods. Pace of play can get a little backed up, but other than that it’s fun. The restaurant and outdoor “snack shack” on the turn is cool too

No Marshall

Great course but no marshall to keep the pace up. group of 3 in front of us. I was in a group of 4. 4 behind us and 4 behind them and we just waited and waited for the group of 3 forever. The group in front of the slow 3some was 3 holes ahead of them at one point.

NO Notification

I arrive at the course and that’s when I find out the greens have been aerated and sanded. No prior notification. And, charging full rates! The worst Golf Customer Experience possible.

Great value

For the money you can’t beat Oso Creek.

Greens in good condition. Tee boxes need a little work. Very good executive course.

Lots of Fun

This is the 2nd Easter in a row I've brought my family down from LA to play this beautiful course. We're not pro golfers by any means, but the staff made us feel welcome and the course was really fun to play. If it wasn't so far from my house I would join up! See you next year or so creak.

First Time Playing

Great greens and staff hospitality

First time here, the greens were in great shape and rolled true - a better stroke would have yielded more birdies. The check in and staff friendliness was great, pace of play was OK and my dog + John Daley at the turn were excellent! Some of the fairways were a bit wet but understandable with the heavy rains and valley location of the course.

Windy weather
Walked

The excess rain has taken a toll on a few of the holes. Some dirt patches on a couple holes with no grass. All in all the course is in pretty fair condition though. The clubhouse and patios at this place are great. Really nice place to grab a meal even if not playing a round there.

Fun course

They need to be way more strict with the pace of play. Yes a lot of new players play here, but they need to understand course edict better and the only one who can teach them that is the Marshall. The Marshall for Oso have become really soft. It’s like they are afraid of confrontation. They need to speed this play up who wait for the greens to open just so they can top it, and align they’re triple bogey puts. There has to be Marshall’s seeing that. Pace of play is what can make or break a decision on which course people want to play. Also I think they should consider putting stadium lights for night golf. Night golf means more tee times to seperate things out, and more money for the company bc the people will come. You can have way more of a night scene at Oso like New Port does and make way more money by doing it well.
