Great golf experience.

This is generally a user friendly course. The new carts are comfortable and beautiful. The only small problem is that the regulator is set so you cannot get very close to the putting green which makes it tough for the elderly player.

Overall in good shape

Overall the course is in good shape. The tee boxes were horrible no water dead and overused. The staff was very friendly and very helpful. They have new golf carts that are very nice but very confusing sometimes it lets you on the fairway and sometimes it doesn’t I guess the course wasn’t well marked for when you were supposed to stay on the cart path and when you weren’t.

SLOW PACE AND POOR FAIRWAYS

I played here after having payed earlier in January. The pace of play was VERY slow. 4 hours and 55 minutes to play 18 holes. The fairways are in poor shape. Grass, what little there is, is cut vary low. Also, I made a reservation on line for $46.00 but then was charged a $24.00 cart fee which I thought was excessive. Plus warm-up balls, totaled $76.00 to play a less than average golf course. On a positive note, the greens were in pretty good shape and putting fast.

Windy and rainey

Tough conditions windy and rainy. I have played it many times and like the course but it was winter conditions so there was a lot of ground under repair. I am hoping that things will be better soon. I am 75 so it is tough for me. when it is rainy.

Owner sucks

Starter and all staff great except owner who always changes pricing and argues with customers. He should not be able to collect fees

Let his employees do it

I know of several people who will never play there again because of him

A Rewarding 18 Holes in San Marcos

Really enjoyed this course. The front nine was being airated, so it's not in perfect condition and all the greens were sanded as they prepare them for another season. In spite of this, the course was in good condition, especially the back nine where the fairways had been completely reseeded and were greened up. The front nine were in the process and will be great in another month or so. The back nine showed how nice it will be when they are completed with the process. Lot's of challenging holes, some a little tight, so hit it straight. Elevation gains made the elevated tee's a joy. Some long par-4's required a solid Driver off the tee and then a 3-wood to reach the green. Look forward to playing there again. They also have a wonderful terrace for drinks plus local Craft Beers on tap and a great food selection after the round.
