Mt. Woodson Golf Club

My wife and I played Mt. Woodson for the third time during our annual visit to California. We enjoyed it immensely, as it is a very challenging and scenic course. The drive up into the mountain is winding and long, especially against the morning or evening sun. However, we feel it is well worth it as the course is very enjoyable to play and the vistas are superb.

Course in good shape...beautiful venue. 4 hr round.. .

This course reminds me a lot of the courses in Korea that are carved out of the side of a mountain. Don't be fooled by the short length as the greens are smallish and your approach in needs to be struck accurately.

I love this course, but the pace of play is unacceptable. To have a group, in front of us, 2 holes behind by the 5th hole takes some of the fun out of the round. Please hire a Marshall to move groups along. A 4 hour 50 minute round is never fun.

Great place to play, greens nice, fairways good, good french fries.

Course is beautiful. Very tight hit straight or kiss it goodbye. Bring extra balls.

Very picturesque and probably the most fun cart path system I have been on! The course plays well and is moderately challenging. Despite the surrounding estate homes and beautiful buildings associated with the course, the club house is shocking. Not much better than a mobile home. Small, poorly appointed, and too rowdy.

Beautiful, well maintained, sand in bunkers, greens great, fairways great, great french fries, need marshall to keep walkewr moving. A must play.

Everything was fine with the round except the start of it. When I walked into the pro shop the worker, I believe his name was Michelangelo, was just staring... felt strange. No welcome or hello or how can I help, literally just stared. So we said hello how are you today and he replied “good, do you have a tee time?” Holy cow! What if I just stopped by to check out some merch just for the heck of it? Maybe show someone around? And I did bring a friend for his first time… I have brought several people to Mt Woodson because it use to be my favorite place to be. Sometimes not even to play, just to shop the pro shop, eat some food and socialize. George the starter is awesome! Very nice guy! Wish he owned the place. Anyways, Michelangelo, made me feel unwelcome from the start. I told him my tee time and he just handed the key and receipt, then said to be at the starter 10 minutes prior.

I grabbed some food and a drink and waited for our time. The younger woman and nice man in the kitchen were fast and friendly! Everything was great about the food experience! Even the cart girl was nice! As for the golf itself, it’s a beautiful place to be, challenging but short, and the greens are rolling nicely. Fairways a little wet and a little dry in areas but not bad. The golf round was fine overall, I just didn’t feel the positive energy present because of the very first interaction i had at Mt Woodson. It just kind of threw the whole round off. I’d recommend to have Michelangelo work a different position and/or I’d highly recommend training him to be a more welcoming pro shop host to keep players/customers coming back.

Not a walkable course, the drives between holes are long but beautiful, with some pretty impressive backgrounds and scenery. Lots of hills make for a lot of up and down, with some challenging lies. Great value for the money. Wish it had a proper driving range though.

Incredible setting. Very hard course requiring accuracy. Cannot wait to play it again. Some course knowledge would be helpful. No driving range.

Have played here several times and it’s always a good time. The course is in good condition, greens are great, and the staff is top notch. Always a fun round here at Mt. Woodson!

A bit out of the way from San Diego but well worth the drive. The course was in great shape for this time of year. I would play this course very often if I lived anywhere near it. My playing partner had lost a few balls, and he felt the course was more difficult for him.

If you like Mountain golf Woodson will not disappoint. Great course lay out using the natural topography of the Mountain and ravines. Lots of elevation change and undulations. Large eucalyptus trees shape many tee shots and driver is not required on many holes. The greens were in great shape. Would definitely play again.

First playing at Mt Woodson. Was recommended by friend this course about require precious shot. It is all about shot precision. Course condition is good, green is bit bumpy.

I don’t where to begin. All my experiences with play and staff and amenities on this course were great. The layout and beauty of the course was simply amazing. The course was challenging but not so difficult that one couldn’t enjoy it. The views were phenomenal and layout was well done. I recommend any golfers in the area to play here. I will definitely like to play it again when I’m visiting the area.
