Unprofessional

Pro shop workers were distressed because their card machine was broken. Told us to come back at the turn pretty rudely to “settle” our tee time payment. Pace of play was terrible, Marshall didn’t come around until the turn. Waste of a round & then they charged me for a full round

Won’t return.

3 hour front nine and 2hr 25 minute back nine! 2 problems, One, overbooked. No excuse for this. Second they don’t care. The only marshal we saw drove by our group and we said the group in front was terribly slow. He yelled back, “it’s Costa Mesa. They are all terrible golfers.” They were a full hole behind and he drove by them without saying anything. Again, no excuse for this, public course or not.

slow play

The management of tee times is poor.

For instance: I there was a twosome ahead of us but our tee time had 5 people. It took us 4.75 hours to complete the round on a Tuesday. And it's not because there were 5 of us. The people in front were backed up on almost every hole...

Could be so good but....

So I have played this course several times and love the course itself .

The experience sorta takes a cold shower at the starters window when checking in. I'm not sure why the person checking you in is so very miserable every time as if it's an interruption in their life to deal with you. Not friendly is an understatement .

Trying to get a breakfast sandwich at the snack bar can be an adventure as there's only one person that seems to be taking orders and cashiering bussing and serving ! Why I don't know . Pace of play is just miserable last round 5 hours and before that a record 6.5 hrs that I would have walked off of if I wasn't garnering a handicapped round. Enforcing Marshall is NON EXISTENT !!

Lovely course that should not take more than 4-4.5 hours to finish 18 holes .

I cancelled my latest reservation to play there after reading all the pace of play complaints .

NOTE TO OWNERS ; PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR REVIEWS AND MAKE THE RIGHT CHANGES IN PERSONAL AND CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS TO GAIN CUSTOMERS BACK . If you care

Course conditions good, but starter manor so bad.

I made a tee time reserved with golfnow on August 13rd, 2023.

I played this course sometime and I saw some group with 5 sum player, I'd like to make sure and called to proshop and asked them about 5 sum players.

They said, it'll be okay but get approval from director Kiyle when we come to course to play.

I requested 5 sum when I get there to play but he said , Kyle is off today and only 4 sum can play.

I drove an hour to this clubs with other 4 friends

and 1 of my friend couldn't play and back to LA.

I'm very disappointed regarding this course policy.

Most golf course play 4 and some course accept 5.

without any approval.

I don't like this course management.

Just make 4 sum a like other many course

Dont bother bringing your kid

came here on a sunday twilight with my 6 year old to have him watch his uncle and i play golf. starter said that no spectators were allowed and he charged me for my son to come watch. as soon as i get on the course at least a dozen guys brought there wife/significant other to drive the cart around while they played. unbelievable attitude in front of my kid who is trying to take up the game. btw don't bother to reach out to their pros via e-mail or the course on instagram as they dont ever respond. Glad there are better places for juniors than this place.

Agree 1000%.

Played on 8/8/23. While the design / layout of the course is fun and enjoyable, the pace of play is brutally painful. After playing just 6 holes in two hours, waiting on every single shot, finally gave up and left. This course is habitually slow.and has not improved over the years. Unfortunately due to this never ending problem, this course will no longer be on my list to play.
