Great Pace of Play, Low Price on a Beautiful Course!!!

My buddy and I played there on a Wednesday. We teed off a little before 3p and finished just under four hours. The course was in great shape. One of thre great things about this course is that there’s no houses or roads crowding it. You feel like you’re kind of out there with just your group. Saw some wildlife as the day got later. I’d highly recommend this course if you live in the area or if you wanna play a really nice course that’s in great shape for a low price.

Steal right outside of San Diego.

Always loved this course. Great conditions, rarely wait ( I played solo and even though I had a foursome in front of me, I still finished in 4 1/2 ) to hit shots, the staff is always glad to see you. Highly recommend.

Rudest staff ever !!!

The staff was the rudest and most disrespectful im ever dealt with. On a Saturday afternoon they had the nerve to turn all the sprinklers on at 5 PM and then had the nerve to tell me I should've booked a sooner tee time. Meanwhile while they let the course get backed up because They don't know how to manage a golf course... it's about a mile away from my buddy's house but I won't be golfing there until they make some major changes in there staff

3 hours and 45 minutes for nine holes, pretty much says it all. No field rangers, no services, filthy toilets.

The out houses had not been replaced in months.

Fun course in good shape

I played here for the first time and was pleasantly taken with the course. Challenging, in good shape with a friendly staff all at a reasonable price.

The fairways, greens and bunkers were in good shape.

The cart was in good shape and I enjoyed having a club washer and ball washer on the cart. Also there was a small cooler (complete with ice no less).

The folks I talked to in the pro shop were friendly and helpful.

All in all an enjoyable course.

Weather was perfect, course was in good condition. Had a blast. Played late for us, (1:10 p.m.) but still got the round in before the sun set. Always like this layout, one of my favorites, worth the drive.

fairways not up to par

the fariways are dried out and hard packed. this is a shame because woods valley is a very nice course. I know we need rain, but other courses have managed to keep there fairways and greens in good shape. How about getting connected to the revamped sewer treatment plant to use there recycled water on the course? I'll have to wait till they start WATERING the fairways before I will return and play / pay the prices they are asking.

Love this place

Always love playing here, can’t wait for the rain to come and take care of the greenery. They do what they can and keep the rates low, that’s why I will continue to play here.

2 different nines

Good place to play in beautiful Valley Center. Front and back nines are different...some very interesting holes...Not your average layout, every time you play it you find something new about the place....Tee Box's are spaced out very nicely so your ability can match where you play from...far enough for most and short enough to be enjoyable for us less skilled or powerful...greens seem a little different on front and back nine? Worth playing when down that way...

Woods Valley is my go to course

Great layout with challenging holes and greens. The fairways are a little bare in spots but it doesn’t take away from this gem. I play here a lot and it never gets boring.
