It’s just mediocre.

Maybe I just went on a really bad day but it was painfully super slow. Group in front of us kept going to the wrong hole and it delayed our group and the group behind us by several holes. Nobody respects the course. It was obvious when another group were riding their carts over the tee boxes. The group I got grouped with were taking mulligans every other hole and would take 3-5 practice swings per shot. I get it, you’re with your crew and maybe they’re understanding and patient but I came here to play golf and not watch a driving range session. It was truly a painfully slow round and I’ll probably never come here again.

Solid Value for Money

Not terribly expensive with good pace of play. The course conditions are what you'd expect for a typical, low-cost municipal course - hard sand, some stray range balls scattered about, a few oddly designed holes. In total, though, a fun course with some variety, pretty well-maintained, easy on- and -off.

Good for a quick 9

This course is great for a cheap quick round. The conditions are ok. The conditions are great for the price. This is my go to course for a quick 9 after work.

Poor condition

All of the tee boxes and most of the greens are in very poor condition. Wasn’t worth the price!

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and we are working towards getting things up to par. Thank you for playing El Cariso Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Good starter course

Overall a good starter course.

Fairways are on the rough side, somewhat patchy but playable.

Greens are a bit bumpy, need to be rolled, ball marks are numerous.

Good Course

We liked the course. Only complaint is that the holes aren't marked. We started to replay one hole since there were no signs.

Good value. Fun round.

It's a shorter course, but there's a variety of challenges to make it interesting (water, elevation changes, forced carries). The course is in pretty good shape considering it's February. The pace of play can slow down and bottleneck behind occasional slow groups, but we played through and never waited again (18 holes in 3 hours!). Most of the people who play here are pretty friendly and considerate, so that's a plus too.

Shout out to Jojo in the proshop - good guy. Super friendly and totally on it!! This was only like our 4th time here in months and he remembered us - impressive. He gets 5 stars!

This course was fun

Had a great time playing, the greens were really fast so be careful of that and the cafeteria was closed so bring some snacks to keep you going. Other than that I had great time.
