Misleading

They charge you $22 extra for cart fees when you get there.

The course is SUPER slow because they squeeze in their friends in-between t times.

It was a good first experience at this golf course. The only unexpected issues was that our group had five players!

I think the sand trap needs sand instead of hard soil.

Nice greens, pace was way to slow

Just wrapped up 18 holes on a Saturday and the round took over 5 1/2 hours, we were 3 groups deep on some of the holes. Greens were speedy today which was impressive.

Just felt bad for the people behind us not being able to finish.

Slow play

This place is gone downhill. They let fivesomes out. Staff was overwhelmed. Carts not available in the beginning. Book a teatime in advance and you never get out on time. Horribly managed.

Excruciatingly Slow Behind Multiple Fivesomes

First of all both courses at Costa Mesa are always in great condition and enjoyable to play

Yesterday was ridiculous. We had 3 fivesomes in front of us and I saw other fivesomes through the course.. we had 5 groups backed up on every par 3 on the front and it took 3.5 hours to play the front 9. We chose to quit after 11 holes. For reference we teed off at 1:18pm and walked off the 11th green at 5:42pm

Not once did we see a Marshall outside of the first tee.

I could see backups everywhere.. I’m still amazed that the course chose to put so many fives ones out around the same time. There should never be a 30 minute wait to hit a shot. Very disappointing to say the least.

6 Hour Round

I tried ignoring some of the reviews staying optimistic that maybe, just maybe, it was a bad day. No, it is a thing! That was the busiest golf course I have ever seen. Two courses, putting green, chipping green, and driving range all sold out on a Friday afternoon. That need a new scheduling system or new scheduler to manage pace of play. Fortunately the marshal came out and cleared out two five sum in front of us. Back nine moved fast but day was gone.

It is also one of the longest courses I’ve played with 5 par fives. Driver got a work out!

Best part was getting matched up with some good dudes and had fun even with ridiculous wait time.

If I could only attach a photo of third hole with 8 carts stacked up and waiting.
