Course in bad shape, weird layout on some holes.

Multiple ground under repair spots on multiple fairways. Hole 10 green is the worst designed green I’ve ever played, it seems like a bad attempt at a two tiered green. The left 1/3rd is just a straight slope. Would not play again.

Nice course

The course is real nice, with good amenities. The staff are all very friendly and helpful.

The only thing I would like to see is the cart included in the price you pay for a round of golf, like almost every other course.

Worst value in town

Painfully slow pace at Sunday twilight. No Marshall to maintain pace or enforce basic etiquette. Bunkers full of rocks. Greens are 50/50. Some dead with rocks everywhere. Some clean and fast. Priced higher than well kept courses around town.

Course doesn't drain very well

Lots of wet spots on the fairways, but the greens rolled very true. Would definitely play the course again this summer. Friendly staff and restaurant had some great food and drinks.

Course in poor shape

I've played here several times and this was the first time the course was really in poor shape. Possibly from all the rain but doesn't look like it has been attended to. Otherwise I usually enjoy playing the course.

False hope

Guy at pro shop said the conditions were the best he’s seen in 12 years which is laughable. Used to play this course regularly and it’s currently in poor conditions. Not to mention lots of issues with the carts. Had to switch carts at 9 as ours wouldn’t move even though on the cart path. Second cart wasn’t much better

Fun course

Truly enjoyed playing there for the first time. Greens were fast, most 3 putts I've had in years. Some of the views are breathtaking, worth the drive from Chula Vista.

Nice tee boxes, very fast greens

Course is in good shape, it historically doesn’t drain well and can be very swampy in some areas. Most of the tee boxes were very nice, most greens were very nice, but extremely fast. Worth the money if you get a hot deal, otherwise can be pricey if you add a cart rental to normal tee time rates.

Fairways under water

It’s a real nice course, but at that time, half of the fairways were under water. You often could nur get to your ball without getting water in your shoes.

Without rain the days before, it would have been very nice.

Drying out, getting better

After the big storms the course is recovering well. The rough is up and this course has a history of not draining well, so lift clean and place is your best bet.

Wet and rough

The course was close to unplayable and the prison refused to give a discount. The cart path is shocking and needs to be fixed
