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.

Greatest course i have ever played!!! EVER!

I am down from Idaho and played here with my buddy Ray who flew in from England. I have play alot of beautiful and fun resort courses in the N.W. over the past 40 years. As we began playing Mt. Woodson we were more and more amazed at beauty and the character of the course. The layout was extraordinary and the scenery spectacular. The fairways were in good shape and the greens were near perfect. And here's the real kicker; we payed $45 to ride 18!! The experience was well worth 4 times that(seriously!)

gorgeous terror

Beautiful course even in the heat of summer, but tough as nails for a sub-6000 yard course. Bring your A game or lots of balls.
