Totally water logged

Course was not really playable. Fairways had puddles everywhere. Wish I didn’t play. Who wants to pay for cart that can’t leave the path and trudge through mud with the wrong club and try to find their ball amongst the 1ft high rough scattered with plant debris?

Feel ripped off

Played on the 31st and was VERY disappointed with the condition of the course. Many of the fairways we unplayable due to standing water, paid 24.00 for a golf cart when it was cart path only and ruined a good pair of golf shoes. Golf shoes are designed to be water repellent not water proof and there was too much swampy water. I've played there lots of times, really enjoy the course but it should not be open for play until there is no standing water in the fairways.

It's a wet winter in San Diego - course is soaked

The rains stopped 10 to 14 days ago, but the course is saturated. There are palettes being used as bridges from the cart path to the fairway. There's casual water on many holes.

The greens were in good shape and the rough, not surprisingly, was growthy, as it's nearly impossible to mow.

Don't wear your good shoes. This was Jan 27 and more rain was expected Jan 29 and 30 and again later in the week. These wet conditions should persist into March at least.

Nice cuorse but waterlogged

I really like the layout. Many tricky holes.

Good value .

Unfortunately right now the back 9 is unplayable. So much boggy ground. You even lose balls in the middle of the fairway and the rough is long because they can't cut it , the grounds too soft to run the mower over I would imagine.

wet course

Course should be closed for a week, so much water and muck, you are lucky to hit the ball without a splatter of mud on yourself. Middle of the course in the fairways was worse than the rough, so soggy.

Soggy bottom boys

Not really playable at this time. Too much water on course.. should have closed temporarily. This course has drainage problems in normal conditions appears groundskeeper got overruled. It’ll be interesting to see what happens to course.conditions down the road. Ounce of prevention, pound of cure. . Anyway wear a beater pair of spikes leather. My partners wore tennis style and were soaked. Wait to play and before you do ask someone coming off 9 or 18 about conditions before you pay.

Good Value for Money

Green fees are very reasonable. Course is walkable. Front 9 are rather flat. Fairways and greens are in good condition. Pace was a bit slow but for the price I would mind. I found fairways to be wide enough. Course to be challenging enough and overall to be good enough for me to come back.

Perfect Day.

The course is in great shape. Greens are fast, so stay below the hole. Did not see a Marshal, and play was slow.1:00 tee time and only got 16 holes in by dark, Great bar and food.
