Mt. Woodson Golf Club
About
Mt. Woodson Golf Club is one of San Diego County's most popular courses for a number of reasons, one being the spectacular setting. Nestled in the Ramona Valley, the course is sprawls across a dramatic landscape of towering oak trees, enormous granite boulders, and sparkling blue lakes. Nearly every hole on the golf course provides stunning views of the surrounding mountains and canyons. It is also known for being one of the most challenging and well maintained layouts in the area. The tight fairways and small greens demand accuracy. There are also plenty of interesting elevation changes throughout. The golf course offers true target-style golf that will test the shot-making abilities of even the most experienced players. One of the most unique features of the course is the 450-foot wooden bridge that winds through the treetops.

Great target golf course!
It is a very nice place, the conditions are very good, the greens were a little bit bumpy but that is because they need aerification (probably the week after I played will get punched) and that is OK, very becautiful layout little bit short as I was able to drive some par 4s but it required really good shots to do that as all of them were guarded by bunkers, lakes, OB, etc, the tracks between some holes feel like going on a disney safari, really good bridges and very scenic, had an amazing time!
Fun course up and down through the hills. Great views of the surroundings and the weather was perfect.. Driving range was minimal but able to get a few swings in.
Really good course!!!
It is tight, target short distance golf, I was able to drive some par4s, greens are very nice and bunkers have good sand, really loved the place and understand why it os some guys fav place to play
Great Value IMO
In my opinion, Mt. Woodson offers a picturesque as well as a challenging round of golf for your money.
Old Farts
Course has a unique layout. Need to roll the greens as well.
Have to say that the older guys especially the starter need to have an attitude adjustment. They were striaght up ***holes.
Ridiculous Cart Policy
I came here on a really slow weekday. There were maybe a dozen cars in the parking lot and the course was dead. When I went to check in there were dozens of available golf carts. Nevertheless, the staff still forced me share a cart with another single golfer. This is just bad customer service. They had more than enough carts to give me my own. Why treat your customers this way when there were clearly enough carts to go around. No one likes to share a cart with a stranger.
Awesome Golf Course!
Mt. Woodson Golf Club is an exciting golf course to play. It has a very scenic layout and is in great shape. I would definitely recommend playing there. Just make sure to bring plenty of golf balls because it can be a bit challenging in some spots. I’ll definitely be back to play there again.
Hidden gem.
Course is in great condition. The layout on some of the holes is a little hard to know where to hit your shots but if you were to play this frequently, it’s one of the best short strategic golf courses in the area.
Mt Woodson
Great course, beautiful surroundings, no brown or yellow spots. its a San Diego Gem
Think before you green fee...
The course is in great shape except for a few tee boxes. If you reserve your tee time through Golf Now, you will pay the Golf Now advertised rate, regardless of any available discounted rates at the course, such as rates for seniors or heroes.
Scenic drive to the course
Challenging layout with all the elevation changes.
Course in a great condition with true roll of the greens. Very scenic. Must play course if you're out of towner.
Old School Course
Target golf which rewards accurate shots. Great layout, design, layout & condition. Definitely recommend this hidden gem a with old school feel & charm.
Sharing carts
I don’t understand why you have the policy of having to share a cart with a random stranger when they joined our group. You had plenty of carts available that day and you made for the day uncomfortable to our family. Next time, just charge me for the whole cart .
Mt. Woodson Golf Course Review
Amazing views, excellent course conditions, and perfect weather made for a truly enjoyable round of golf. The layout is scenic and unique, with dramatic elevation changes and beautiful natural surroundings that make every hole feel special. Our threesome was joined by a single who fit in seamlessly, adding to the fun and relaxed atmosphere. A fantastic day!
