Talega Golf Club
About
Talega Golf Club is one of southern California's treasures, offering a challenging Fred Couples layout that sits above the "Spanish Village by the Sea." The course winds through canyons and valleys offering scenic views of the surrounding countryside throughout. The diverse layout will test your shot-making skills and there are also several interesting risk-reward opportunities including two reachable par 4s that will please long hitters. There is an abundance of bunkers coming into play, especially along the fairways, and golfers will be faced with the occasional blind shot. The greens are extremely quick and not a single one is flat. Nearly every green has multiple tiers. Water hazards also come into play on a few holes. One of Talega's most memorable holes is the monstrous 13th. This par 5 requires a carry over not just one but two ravines.

Very nice but not perfect.
Foggy in the morning, but burned off around 10 am. Not too crowded, but was busy. Turf in pretty good shape. Greens were wet and slow all day. You really had to give the ball a good rap to get it to roll.
There's a few blindish drives, challenging to the first timers there. One hole you drive over a tree line toward a red flag in the distance. That's silly, they should trim those trees enough so you can have an idea what to do.
Driving range and practice facility is not on the same property and it doesn't open until nine am. No way to hit a bucket to warm up if you have a morning tee time. Snack bar not open until nine, and there is no roving bar cart. No one answered the snack bar phone.
Food was good, had a delicious bloody mary and a great breakfast burrito. Easy parking, friendly staff. No ball washers on the course. GPS is pretty antiquated, but was on each cart.
I'd go again.
Could be Better
Driving Range DOES NOT OPEN until 9am! That SUCKS NO BAR or Restaurant so you can’t get an after round drink or food. Half way house has terrible service snd small selection.
Pretty Good
Course was in better condition than I expected. First fairway had some big chunks of sod missing but otherwise pretty good shape.
Great course for the money
This is a great course for the money. My only suggestion would be to open the restaurant and have cart/drink service on the course.
Amazing greens
Beautiful morning course, went out as single, other players in front were fast. The greens were receptive, maybe even overwatered. My only complaint is the maintenance staff seemed to be on every hole and even distributing white dirt on the last three greens as we were playing them. Overall, lovely morning and great course.
Great Course
Fsirways ate pristine. Greens are smooth snd roll true. Bunkers are dair snd challenging.
