Always enjoyable

Playing Mt Woodson is always an enjoyable experience with beautifully designed holes set with picturesque vistas in the background. Very playable with a fair test for golfers of differing levels.

Short frost delay but the day turned out beautiful and the course was great. The greens were the best I have ever seen them.

Doing great clean up to this course

The course is filling in nicely. They are cleaning up the course and it looks spectacular especially in mid winter. Staff is always friendly.

Nice well maintained course

First time at Woods Valley. Starter gave me the quick low down on the course and it was all true.

Pace was normal for Covid times. Course was in good shape and the greens were accurate and fast.

I will be back!!

This course is getting real good

I've played here a few times the last few years and I've never seen this course in better shape.

Came back the next week I liked it so much.

There are better courses to play

Course is in poor condition. Granted they are overseeding and recently aerated but there is so much standing water on the course that it’s not enjoyable to play at all. Tee boxes are soaked and it’s hard to find spots that are dry enough not be technically ruled casual water. I quit after 9 because it was so bad. Much better options out there.

Nicely improving

I really like the course as it is very playable for the average golfer and challenging for the advanced player from the back tees. It was going through over seeding and aeration so was not in the best of shape. There is evidence that ownership is striving for improvements.

Awesome layout

Great layout. Good condition. Friendly staff. We’ll be back plenty of times. Once again, the layout is fantastic. It’s a nice mix of challenging and fair. Love it. One of the best in San Diego.

NOT worth the money

Course looked great online. I even called the day a couple days before and ask how the conditions were. the reply was "COURSE IS IN GREAT CONDITION" Yeah right. Maybe if it was watered. All the fairways were brown and dying off. For the golf shop to say it was in GREAT condition was a complete lie!!!! The course i might have paid $25-$30 for maybe. from this i don't trusty any golf shop on what they tell me conditions are. Other courses have said the same and complete crap. Honestly if i can get a refund i 100% would. The facility there is terrible
