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.

Target golf at it's best!
This course is one that you either love, or hate, no middle ground here. Although one of the shortest tracks around, even from the blue tees, you better have your game under control. Length is not a factor, but accuracy is paramount. Course conditions are almost always above average, and would probably give a higher rating if it were not for the bunkers, as they are about the only below average conditions of the entire course. It's well worth the trip to play Mt Woodson just about any day or time, but suggest starting mid morning, to avoid the wind that rears It's ugly head in the afternoon.
Cudos to the staff in every way..
Fun and challenging track
Joined a threesome that play this course regularly which definitely helped. Course is in great shape. Greens are medium speed with lots of undulation. Wasn’t in any traps but they seemed to have good sand. Beautiful views throughout. Would recommend playing this course
Most unique course in SD county
Tons of elevation change and target golf shots. Beautiful views, nice fairways, lush greens. Nothing quite like it in SD county.
Mt. Woodson golf
Great course, but like most places these days...the bunkers need some work. They are working on fairway and green on #10...so temp green played as par 3.
Fun and tough
Beautiful setting with a challenging layout. Driving the cart to the third hole feels like an old school woody roller coaster ride. I can’t wait to tee it up again!
Narrow course is challenging
Bridge between holes 2 - 3 is a trip. Fairways and greens in very good condition
Great course; amazing value.
What a hidden gem. Breathtaking views and many memorable holes. It’s tight with a lot of personality so it’s tricky to play for the first time so you will want to come back. That wooden bridge is unforgettable.
Good value
Nice layout. Challenging for the distance . Excellent staff
Tough greens! !
Really enjoyed our round. Short course, but greens with undulations making it tough to read. Would return for sure!
Great Hidden Gem for SD County Golf
Course is very unique and challenging with precise par 3 holes and a variety of elevations changes throughout the 18 holes. Very fun and scenic course overall with challenging holes for every skill level.
Only negative involves the lack of a driving range to warmup, however they have a net system to use.
Call ahead for food at clubhouse if you need lunch, it does get busy depending on timing. Our foursome all ordered at the turn and got backed up slightly once receiving our order.
Great layout
Greens were pristine as usual but fairways and rough were a little bare and burnt out. A little early in the year for that. Rate was very reasonable though. Only real complaint was a brutal pace of play.
A.great unique course
Love playing here. Challenging but fun and a cool location up in the hills
