San Dimas Canyon Golf Course

Played 6/27/2015. Conditions were great even considering the drought in California. A few areas of dead grass here and there on the fairways. Greens were in excellent shape. Our round was quite slow - about 5 hours, mainly due to a lolly gagging foursome in front of us. Overall it was a great outing.

You might see some “weird” golfer in this course sometime. We played on June 21, and there were a four somes group in front of us. When we were waiting on the tee box for 10 minutes, another group were coming behind us, and the green was clear. The four somes were not trying to lay up to the green instead they were trying to retrieve their ball from the water….. just can’t understand.

Our threesome was booked for 9:16. We arrived with enough time to hit a few balls and use the putting green. On arrival we were told that we had been moved up to 9:08 and a twosome would be added to our threesome. The course was putting out fivesomes all morning. We had to argue with the starter to get carts to go to the driving range. He pointed out that it was only a short walk up the hill (about 500 yards). We waited on every tee and on some tees there were three groups waiting ahead of us. We avoided the extra two people so we were a threesome and we played as quickly as we could and ended with a six hour round. I would not recommend this course to anyone on a weekend.

Pace of play was agonizing. My foursome took five and a half hours to complete our round. I liked the setup with plenty of challenging fairways and fast sloping greens.

This was my second time playing this course and I love everything about it except in both visits the back nine was terrible with regard to pace of play. The front nine we got through in 1hr 45min but the back 9 took 2hrs just to get to hole 16 and we had to leave from there. Very disapointed because I really like the course.

Friends and I have been here before and had the same, painfully slow experience. I know they've had complaints before about 5somes and pace of play but this is the worse I've ever experienced and absolutely not go back.

Very clean course. Greens are kept and so are the fairways. Staff was very friendly and even offered to order my breakfast burrito. Driving range is small but don't need a big one when u have such a beautiful course. Carts are kept clean. Sand bunkers use fine sand and plenty of rakes.

No mention of course being airated. also gps was wrong! said flag was in back of green when it was actually in front!

First time playing this course...overall the course was in good shape and a good value. Only complaint was the pace of play...we had two five somes in front of us and it was slow...we actually skipped ahead two holes on the back to get going. I expect a 5 hour round on the weekend, but not at 9:30 on a Wednesday...

The greens were in good shape. Other than that, it was one of the worst golfing experiences I've ever had. We got stuck behind multiple fivesomes and waited on every shot on every hole. Our time was early in the morning, but because of all the groups of five, we teed off 30-40 minutes late. How can a course be open for an hour and already be 30 minutes behind? Not only do they allow fives, but they squeezed a twosome in behind us. That poor group waited longer all day than we did.

The course itself is really weird. Only two holes on the front nine were receptive to hitting a driver. Most the holes, even par fives, had irons off the tee. The fairways were poorly manicured and large clumps of grass led to weird lies all day. some of the holes had OB with the fairway sloping toward the OB and trees on the other side.The worst part of the course was all the adjoining holes that had people going in all directions. As I putted on one of the greens, I heard three different people yell "Fore" in about two minutes. Balls we landing near and around us all day and we were lucky not to have been hit.

I will never go to this course again.mwe paid $59 and it wasn't worth $25.

Course is always in great shape. A great mix of challenging and scorable holes. Gotta play smart golf here but can be rewarded for great shots.

We were very happy with the whole experience except that their super twilight rate is the same whether you walk or not. There should be a super twilight rate for walkers instead of being the same with the cart.

Played here on February 14 and even though the course was in good condition the pace of play was really slow. Ok round for the cost.

The course was very nice, well kept and maintained.
The staff was courteous and professional. However, the pace of play was a bit slow FYI, it took 3 hours and 15 minutes to at the front 9.

The course was in good shape but the day started off on the wrong foot with the staff!

The only issue was a tournament ahead of us that was slow. Other than that would play there again.

I play this course more than any other. The layout is fun and each hole is unique. The conditions here are always great, that you can count on. The problem seems that on weekends the course is over booked and more importantly not marshalled for pace of place. Our tee time was 10:50am and we barely finished losing daylight around 5:15pm, which is horrendously long. I never once saw a marshall enforcing pace of play, it was horrible. Play here M-Th early if you can, we play within 3 hours if we are the first to tee off.

Sure, the day after Christmas might be a favorite golf day for occasional golfers, but the facilities management should ensure they do not overcrowd the course.

It was more crowded than Walmart on Black Friday.

Started us an hour after our tee time and we barely finished the 13th before the sun went down. The issue was not simply slow play, there were carts everywhere.

Treated a friend to a round of golf for his bday. Play was slow as expected considering it was a long holiday weekend (day after Xmas). The course was in fantastic condition. It has been a while since the last time I visited this course and forgot how simple and nice of a course this is. Definitely be back soon.

The course was in nice condition. My only complaint is we booked our tee time for 837. The started never called us, even though we checked in a couple of times. Ended up teeing off at 940. The course was way over booked. Took almost 6 hours to finish. We expected it to be busy being the day after Christmas, but not this busy. The food was good, greens ran fast and true. I'd play here again, but on a week day only.
