I Recommend This Course
Basic Par 60 local course
Course is very walkable, in good shape, and short. Not too challenging but good for short and mid game practice. Biggest knock here is the pace of play. Took almost 4 hours on a Friday afternoon to finish a par 60.

Nice short course with varied hole challenges
Generally liked playing here. Only complaint is the management doesn't allow handicapped players to access their clubs from their cars nor bring them back.

Oso creek on a weekend
Nice restaurant and bar area. Tee boxes were beaten up, uneven and very little grass. Fairways were in decent shape as weee the greens. Disappointed with Marshall’s that it was still a 5.5 hour round on a executive course is ridiculous

POP Rediculously slow
We finished 9 in 2hrs 10 min, and decided to leave the course. It was too slow. NO WAY a course that short should be tracking at over 4hrs to play; that's comparable to what regulation course should take.

Oso Creek Has Made Improvements
Oso Creek hasn’t always been the best course in the area but they have really improved their layout and green in the past couple years (since the city MV took ownership) and now it one of my favorite places to play for the price ($30 on weekday morning). Also the Terrace by the Green has also made improvements and it’s a great place to hangout after you finish your round!
