An Enjoyable Golf Course at a Reasonable Price

If you want to get out there and play some enjoyable golf at a reasonable price, then El Cariso GG may be just the place for you.

Currently the course is in very good shape, the pace of play is excellent, the staff is very accomodating, and the green fees are quite affordable.

Are there better golf courses to be played out there? Yes, of course there are. But you might find it difficult to beat the combination of course conditions, pace of play, friendly staff, and reasonable pricing currently offered at El Cariso.

Bottom Line... This place simply works, and makes for a very enjoyable round of golf.

So, if you're a recreational golfer who's up for trying something new, then I would suggest that you give it a go at El Cariso.

El Cariso - Nice Quick Round!

Played a nice quick round at El Cariso this morning. Only took 3 hours and the course was in good shape! Only complaint was that the greens were a bit firm but really good to put on! Nice to start at 7:30am and be finished at 10:30am :-)

Enjoy this course

It's only the second time we've played at El Cariso. We enjoy the course, but a couple holes are not marked well and hole identifiers near the tee boxes would be helpful to newer players at this course.

I’m Back!

After not golfing for four years because of back problems, I looked forward to coming back to El Cariso. The weather was perfect, the course was nice, the price was reasonable, and I had a great time. One complaint is that I would’ve liked the ball cleaners to have been working. I don’t know why that is Covid related.

It's a freaking jungle!!!!

They need to cut the intermediate & primary rough shorter. It swallows up golf balls and they are lost. I have never lost more golf balls landing in the rough as this place.

Course was enjoyable

The course as a whole was excellent. Unfortunately, we landed on a day that the greens had been ariated and sand was on many of the greens. The sand made it difficult to get legitimate putts. I'm hoping that the work done on the greens this week will make for better play in the next few weeks.
