Greens very freshly punched in July? Consider notifying your customers when the greens have been punched because it affects play -and your customers desire to play the course-had I known, I would’ve waited a few weeks to play.

Be Prepared to WAIT
Everything about this course has gotten better since the ownership change EXCEPT for the pace of play. I understand that people come here to practice but it took my group of 3 nearly 4 hours to play this < 4,000 yard course which is just unacceptable. The group ahead of us was a foursome who were brand new to golf (rolling their pushcarts over the green new) and nearly 2 holes behind the group in front of them. This course needs marshal. Overall, I recommend the course and think it’s a great value for the money.

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.
