Oso Creek delivers a genuinely challenging executive layout with rolling greens, forced carries, and well-maintained fairways that consistently reward repeat visits. Friendly staff, strong value for South OC, and a popular outdoor patio make this course a standout local gem.

Great value

This place is a hidden gem in South OC! I played with two guys, one of which was born and raised in south OC and no idea that the course existed. It got a little cramped up on the back 9 but its to be expected. This course is for beginners so expect a slower pace.

It was good course. But it is short range.

Most of holes are par 3.

Please play your first round elsewhere

We had a 12:20 tee time. The weather was great. the greens were great. The fairways had some bare spots, and no one knows how to rake a bunker since covid started, but if you hit it right here, that does not matter. So why 2 stars? No Marshall. The group in front of us were horrible. The man swung and missed at least 6 times on tee number one. each person was askign for another ball when they dribbled one into the rough. at hole 11 a single came up and asked to join us (We were a 3-some two women and me - both women had had knee replacements and had trouble walking, but we were still waiting every hole) I told the guy there were 2 holes open ahead of the group in front of us. He was welcome to join us, but would probably be better off jumping them and playing by himself. He took that option. Oh, and this bunch liked to park their carts on the fringe of every green. Casta Del Slow has been re=branded as So Slow Creek!
