Golfer Reviews
Great course and staff!
Have played this course quite a few and have enjoyed it every single time! Course is always in great condition, greens are fantastic, a bit tricky but in great shape! Always have had a great experience interacting with the staff at San Dimas
Canyon G.C.! Absolutely recommend this course!!
One hour drive.
Course was great shape. The layout was good. Was a good price with gps carts.
Still a nice course
This was my first time playing SAN Dimas in close to 20 years. The course is in great condition and challenging as always. The only down side to this course is the slow play.
Play Super Early
Played in a tournament 10am start on May 21 and wow big mistake but more on that later
Course Conditions: Fanatastic
Fairways: Lush very little bare spots a pleasure to hit from
Rough: Good and penal
Bunkers: The 1 bunker I was in was very good sand in there
Greens: Outstanding shape very smooth and putted very well and are super tough to read love that
So the conditions of the course I would tell anyone to play this course they are doing super well considering we are In a drought bravo to the greens keeper there
But pace of play is unacceptable shouldn't play a round in 6 hours and 45 minutes is outrageous and sitting there waiting on every shot is not golf folks but American golf runs this course and while they get an A+ condition wise they get a huge F in pace of play. Now I still recommend this course but only if you get a super early tee time but if you want to play anywhere from 9am on don't bother unless you like waiting on every single shot
Greens were a challenge
The greens were difficult to read and predict which makes golf a challenging game. Deer were present which I find extremely rare.
Great shape
Very green, fairways were cut and full. Greens in amazing shape. Rolled fast and true. Play early cause they can overbook and it plays slow
Home sweet home
Best bang for your buck! Great, challenging course with smooth greens.
Played in the afternoon and had zero issues with pace. No place like home!
Nice greens
The course is in good condition right now. However, as always, they tend to book too many tee times causing a slow pace of play.
San Dimas Canyon
Walked the Blues (6400/71.5/125) with RGM2525, Rob & David. The weather was really nice, sunny, breezy and in the 70's. The POP was not, slightly over 5H on a very busy weekday afternoon.
First time here, more positives than negatives overall. Five par 5's & five par 3's, which I like. Several of the par 5's are shorter & scoreable. Several of the par 3's are good tests and their distances are nicely spaced so you are hitting different clubs throughout. No frills, old school layout that has some fun holes. #16 is probably their signature hole, an excellent par 3 over water from an elevated tee.
The tees were okay, good coverage but not lush, mowed close. Not too many were chewed up and most were fairly level.
The fairways were mowed close and more thin than lush but had good coverage.
The "rough" was almost better to play out of than the fairway. Mowed very close, maybe 1", with good coverage, not penal at all.
The sand traps were decent. Nice fine sand.
The greens were medium speed but bumpy, still showing the effects of aeration 3+ weeks ago. They held approach shots well.
Hilly course, but still a nice course to walk, most tees were close to the last green. No drink cart, but did see ambassadors out patrolling several times. They were running a special that included breakfast and lunch, so the turn was packed with people ordering lunch, which slowed things down even more. Not an overly taxing layout, fun course that doesn't require alot of forced carries and good for players of all skill levels. Recommended = Yes.
Cancelled
Upon arriving to the course, I learned that there was a kids tournament in progress. I think that is why the green fee's were so cheap. They told me my tee time would be delayed about a half an hour. We stood and waited for a while and the one group on the first tee didn't move for 15 minutes. I understand it was slow because it was a kids tournament but it would have been nice to know that before I booked the tee time. They did cancel my tee time at the course and I wasn't charged for it but I was still charged for booking it.
Midday golf experience
The starts were pleasant and the ground staff nice but the kitchen counter personnel were not nice, rude would be the right description. Pace of play when we got to the back side was terrible not a Marshall in sight could have been pleasant but many group lagging behind. I really do like this course its just pace of play is consistently slow on the back side.
Great Sunday
The course was in great condition and the staff was beyond friendly. San dimas is a course I would play daily.
Never Again!!!!
Tried playing here in late December, but walked off the course after the 14th hole. 10:05am tee time, and it took 5 hours and 15 minutes to 14 holes. This is what you get with American Golf anymore. I won't play any of their courses. Its all about cramming as many people out there as possible. San Dims is a nice track, but it takes too darn long to play here anymore.
Never again
Every time I play here I keep hoping beyond hope that my experience will be different but it never is because it really is a fun layout with great greens. BUT that's where the good stuff ends. The pace of play kills any enjoyment that could be had. They were 45 minutes behind when we got there and we were 2 deep on every tee box (sometimes 3) all day long. And this is normal. It would have been a 6 hour round but we never even finished because of darkness. They overbook like crazy and allow 5-somesomes. Need I say more. We played here because my son was home from college and used to play a lot of his high school golf here so he wanted to revisit old memories. He was hugely disappointed. So, I can safely say I am done ever playing here again. There are to many other good courses out there that care about your overall experience. This one doesn't
Nice staff
I will say the reception is the best. She assign me to play second and no waiting.
I never see the staff is so nice to think about play's need.
Greens were tough and very fast
Loved the greens, rolled well and were extremely fast, a couple of the pin placements were a little to tough for the speed of the greens, But i still loved them. The course had some interesting holes. The traps were in great shape. They had a tournament earlier in the day that was a little larger than expected and were very slow, had a tee tine for 12:22, didn't tee off till 12:40. The staff were nice, and were apologetic for the delay. They gave us range balls to warm up. Even with the delay enjoyed the day and the course.
Average public course
Not recommended if you have been going to private courses (including the ones that used to be private)
