John L

This is a fun coarse but needs a lot of work. The cart paths are very bumpy, hard on my father's back. Biggest issue is the bane of the central coast, Goffers! The greens are nice and play true.

Central California common problem with Goffers

This could be such a nice course with some rodent reduction.

Nice course but beware of the wind that whips up in the afternoons. Course is in decent shape with the exception of the tee boxes which need a lot of work. Still a great value and nice place to play.

Good layout enjoy playing this course

I like this course. It would be nice if they could improve conditions but the weather and lack of water probably make it difficult. Pace was fair for weekend golf about 4 1/2 hours.

It can get warm in the summer and the carts have no roof. Have to huddle under trees.

Great Potential

This course has an excellent layout with hole number 10 having a beautiful waterfall which the player has to carry with the drive from the white and blue tees. Improvements are need at a number of the tee boxes. Putting is challenging with slopes and undulating greens. There are some infestations on the greens that should be dealt with, but not major. The one major negative to me is the lack of a roof on the golf carts which then fails to provide both protection from the sun and an errant object/golf ball with the latter being a minimal concern due to the excellent course layout.

The staff is excellent led by Tracy who give lessons and excels at that and is exceptionally cordial and friendly to customers. Also Carson who works the front desk does a great job.
