Often challenging executive course.

I really enjoy playing there and they have a lovely Women's club. However, I don't think the holes are at all well marked so it's easy to find yourself on the wrong hole till you go a few times! Also the clubhouse restrooms are often closed or not working. Also you're not allowed to drive your cart to parking lot to take clubs to car which is definitely a negative since is uphill to lot.

Fun, chill course

Great executive course, normally quiet here- but was unusually busy due to the holiday weekend. Challenging enough to be interesting but easy enough to play for this 2021 beginner golfer

Love El Cariso

It's been about 15 year's since I've played the course, however the majestic views, friendly staff and challenging greens remain the same.

Excellent Weather at El Cariso

Had a really fun round today at El Cariso. Noon single tee time and got paired up with a really cool fellow who plays there every Thursday.

Weather was great and only real compliant was about the green conditions. Understand you gotta do it a couple time a year, but they were just punched and weren't rolled after.

Nice course

This is a shorter course than most, but still has some challenges and elevation changes. The greens are in good shape. The fairways are generally fairly good, though grass is a bit spongy in places. Water comes into play on a few holes. There are several doglegs.

The course is not easy

The course has lots of trees, lots of traps and lots of water which comes in to play more than you think, Better hit the ball straight here.
