Challenging course. Good shape.

Have played both courses at this facility. Las Lagos is much more difficult. The course is in good shape. Hate paying such high green fees but hey its CA and someone has to make up for the low rate they give to residents. Wish they wouldn't cram so many people on the course. You can count on a 5 hour round for sure.

Early play with good pace

Played about a half hour after sunrise and the pace of play was good. Sometimes later in the day it can get backed up, but was good today.

Good course, extremely slow play

The course is kept up well but the staff is getting worse at overbooking and sending too many people onto the course. Round took 6 hours. If you have the time I’d say it’s worth a play for condition but be ready for slow play.

Good tract but poor pace of play

If you enjoy a five hour round of golf it is a perfect place to play golf. Really like the tract and the conditions are better than average over the golf courses I've played recently. The check in was "matter of factly" but the starter was excellent and helpful. I detest 5-somes so what was my choice was of course to play in one! Fortunately the foursome that I joined was very congenial and from a personal aspect had good time. Arrived at 1:05 for a 1:24 t-time and left the parking lot at 6:45 for home.

Need sand in sand traps

Some of the bunkers are hard as a rock.

Couldn’t see the sand without the soil in all course traps. That makes hard to get a good hit and not a fun.

The toilet is not a clean and got a bad smell.

It is too hard to fix the tee on the tee box.

As usual, it took more than five hours twenty minutes to finish the 18 holes.

Fun Round

This is an ice enough course. Pace of play was decent. 4.5 hours. About what expected. Course was in good shape. Cart girl was friendly and made multiple appearances throughout the round.

The one thing that always confuses me about this course though is the pro shop/starter. I don't play here often anymore, I moved from HB to Tustin eats ago being the main reason. But the starter here is always surly. They make it clear they'd that your presence annoys them and god forbid you ask a question. If you get an answer, it'll be a round about smart alleck answer. Also $36 to not share a cart with a stranger is laughable. It's $25 @ oak creek.

Having said that, once you get past the starter it's a nice enough course for a round of weekday golf.

Great Value for the Price!

The Los Lagos course was in good shape, but the greens were great! Good layout and fun to play. Best value in Orange County for the Price! Would

Play it Again!
