Back up on 10! Photo submitted by CTGRANDIN on 12/31/2012
Great place to golf!
This was my first time at this course, and I must say I was impressed by the conditions and the layout. Some of the holes were a little tough to see where I'm hitting to, but overall the price was excellent for the experience. Very helpful & friendly staff, and the course Marshall was super nice.
Good that they have a marshal even on weekdays we were able to finish the round before it got dark because he kept the pace going.
Weather said Santa Ana wind condition with gust up to 30 mph. Was tempted to cancel but glad I did not. Would like to play there again soon but it was a long drive for me-70 miles one way Will return when somebody to drive me there. I remember playing. there about 40 years ago.
Good day at the course
Booked thru golf now. Great rate. No issues. Good layout. Good condition. Good food. Good pace.
Love it...!
I’ve played courses in the area but I always find myself coming back to this place. Great lay out, Course is great for all skill levels.
Great surprise.
I've been golfing on this course for over 30 years. I was pleased to see how well the course is being maintained. The greens are impeccable, tee boxes, sand traps, fairways nicely groomed. The course has come a long way and the improvement is surprisingly obvious.
I can't wait to go again.
Golf now.
The weather was perfect. Yes, it was windy, but it gave the course that much more fun. Great staff. The greens were very good. The course is drying up though.
golf now
The weather was perfect. The staff was friendly. I went out as a single and paired up with another single. It took a foursome an hour and 10 minutes to finish 3 holes. I called the club house. They spoke to the foursome and nothing happened. The group let me pass them at hole 10. After allowed to pass the foursome the round was awesome.
overseeding
The green were fast and in really good shape. The fairways were just at the tail end of overseeding and had a few barespots to contend with. Hit a shot on #2 (par 3) that looked o.k. Looked again and my ball had rolled back into the hazard. Course always plays long and the rough is just that, rough. Good thing I hit 10/14 fairways.
Great Round, Nice Course
Course was pretty good condition. Had a great round. The restraunt closed at 3:30. Finished round at 3:45. Pro shop staff could be a little friendlier.
Golf Club Rancho California
Very nice course have played it a few times enjoy playing it today we had no one in front of or behind so we could play at our own pace and played it in around 3 hours
Course conditions not disclosed in advance
The fairways had been overseeded, leading course management to impose cart path only rules for the entire course.. In addition, the fairways had not been mowed in some time, resulting in the entire course being rough.
course was lightly punched and seeded a week ago and is in excellent condition
Post-aeration
This review applies only to the date of play, which was about 10 days after aeration of greens, fairways, and tees. Everything considered, conditions were not too bad. Fairways definitely required preferred lies. Greens looked good, but were extremely slow.
Worst pro shop experience
My tee time 11:23Am
I am arrived pro shop 11:10Am
Pro shop man said my tee time 11:30
Come back 10min later...
Even there are lot of cart waiting...
Worst pro shop experience my 10 year golf...
Horrible conditons
This course is a mess right now. It’s a shame too since it’s a Robert Trent Jones Design. 4 fairway was literally a hayfield. Grass 4 inches high...in the fairway!!!! Greens are a wreck too, extremely bumpy and slow. I can’t believe the owners are letting this awesome layout get trashed.
I'm so sorry for the inconvenience and the conditions of the course at this time. We hope you understand we are over seeding the golf course to try and make our course in the best shape possible for the upcoming fall season. We hope to see you back here in the near future to see how it has improved!
I'm so sorry to hear that, we apologize for the inconvenience but we hope you can understand we are over seeding the Golf Course at this time to make the course as nice as possible for the upcoming fall season. We hope to see you back in the near future to see how the course has improved!
Great Place to Play
Great staff, challenging but fair layout, nice practice areas. I definitely recommend playing here.
Aviara Stay & Play Package
New owners are terrible, running course into ground. Rude to customers, seems like they just want to go home. I had same terrible customer service,will never golf here again
