Mesa Linda at Costa Mesa Golf & Country Club

My teetime was at 6AM. The fairways in good shape and the greens were excellent smooth and fast after Santa Anna wind.

Great course and value for money but the pace of place keeps getting worse. Front 9 took 3 hours, I will stop playing here because the rounds just take too long

All staff members in the proshop were friendly and professional, they have a full scale bar, restaurant and their own locker rooms. The clubhouse is in a separate building from the proshop, but both are walking distances apart. Golf carts are well maintained and clean. Tee boxes are elevated but not level. Greens were fun and the ball rolled well for me. Sand bunkers were entertaining to watch my group try to get out of them. Pace of play is something I wish more Marshall's were around to speed up play. We had 3 groups backed up on the 3rd hole. We finished 17 holes from 1:15 to 5:15pm. I will be back in wanted to play the 18th hole but it was too dark.

I would play here again, but be prepared for a long round. Staff were great and the cost was very reasonable. A solid so cal muni course.

We played Mesa Linda and it was incredibly slow for a Saturday. We came upon the Marshall at the snack shop and he was asleep in his cart to the point he was snoring. He obviously wasn’t doing his job. They need to be more on top of players instead to witness, this was an embarrassment for the course.

This course is lawless chaos. Backed up immediately off the first tee. The crazy part is they have a Marshall unlike other courses with terrible pace of play issues, but he just drove by twice and didn’t do anything about it. I will pay any of my friends $50 NOT to play here.

Had a 9:30 tee time at didn’t get off first tee until 10:10. On hole 3 a par three there were 4 groups of 5 in front of us. 3 hours to play 9 holes. Just left after 9 because it was so brutally slow.

9:06 tee time. Course is so poorly managed. Way too many bookings. When we arrived, we paid and were not told that they start times were significantly delayed. About 10 minutes before our start time, I went to check in with the Starter. He said that they were 30 minutes behind. Ultimately, we started our round 50 minutes late. 5 hours later we finished our round. So, basically a 6-hour round. Most of the players waiting said this was "normal". Hard to understand how the course manager(s) would not do something to correct the problem.

Fivesomes should not be allowed on the course on the weekends. They are way too slow and slow down play. We started at 12:30pm and left the course at 5pm only on hole 14.

Tee off time was 1:15pm at LosLagos After 25 minutes waiting we were able to first tee off.

We finished 9 holes at 5:15 pm.

Too much slow.

I love this course but the greens had recently been aerated so putting was pretty hilarious. I didn’t notice anything mentioning this and feel green fees should have been discounted a little for this.

But overall it was a good round. I love the two courses here.

Overall I was happy. The greens were punched 1 week prior, but in decent condition. Fairways had several bare spots.
