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.

MT WOODSON REVIEW

This course is gorgeous, absolutely the biggest bang for your buck. Blows all surrounding courses out the hazard while being one of the most affordable. With each holes layout offering a different challenge this course is difficult but fair. No single hole looks like the other with distinct personality. You really don't expect this from a public course. But the greens are in perfect condition the fairways and rough as well. My favorite course. The staff is friendly helpful understanding and keep a smile on their face. Almost forgot the mountainous views especially from hole #2 are amazing. 10 out of 10 in all categories

My only complaint was that the greens were very slow. They need a trimming

Good tee off deal

Love this course. Has been in great shape for the most part except for some green repairs here and there. Not too crowded mid week and affordable with golf pass. Snack bar has the best food in SD county compared to other courses. Great sandwiches and burgers, salad too.

Unique. In a good way.

I haven't played Mt. Woodson in over 20 years, and it's still as awesome a challenge as you'll find in So Cal. Gettable from the whites, and some really demanding blue tees if you want them.

Carts are a little dated, but still enough torque to get up those amusement park golf paths. The course is in fair shape, but green speeds and quality were all over the place. Overall, we were much happier driving to play here than paying +$20 to play Riverwalk, with its 0' elevation change.

Always so good

Definitely a hidden gem north of San Diego. Pretty fun layout if you have played it more than once. I feel you could play this numerous times and not get bored. It is worth the drive if you have the time.
