Decent Course with nice views

This course was just ok for me. Although it was in nice shape and had nice views it was a bit too frustrating. The greens were very soggy and we played thru a few holes because it was too muddy. I can hold my own on the long holes and I frequently can get to the green in two shots on a par 4. But most of the long holes here were WAY too long. It took forever to get to the green and I had plenty of nice clean shots to get down there. Just too frustrating for me.

Great Value

The course is a really good value in the San Diego area; course was crowded but the pace of play was still good. We definitely play again!

Quagmire

My first impression as I saw the course was very plush and green then I stepped on the course and my impression changes a bit. The beauty of the course was directly related to the moisture content of the soil, a large percentage of the holes fairways were damp to quagmire to pooling water. Mind you I was part of a tournament and must admit the course had a couple tournaments (local members) at the same time which brought into play an overzealous course ambassador that was rude and obnoxious. Additionally, as we stood on one the tee boxes we had to wait for the grounds attendant to pull a hose across the tee box and begin watering the very box that we were standing in.

The course never really dried out, but was green. Some of my team mates enjoyed the course, so did I, let me clarify; the vista beautiful, bar and grill personnel outstanding, course difficulty decent, soil moisture content unsatisfactory, course ambassador customer service horrible, grounds attendant needs golf etiquette training.

Drain system trouble

I played this course when all the rains came, some of the holes were swamps, completely soaked, that was after a week of drying out, I went out on June 3 , got to the second hole, fairway was soaked, we havent had any rains. Over watering issue? Drainage issue? The staff is awesome, but he course has serious issues. The greens were good, as usual.

Great course at a great price!

I played this course for the first time yesterday and was blown away by it. From tee to green the course was in phenomenal shape with some really challenging holes. I cant believe i never payed this course before being i live in San Marcos, but i may of just found a new home course.

Great Value at St Mark

Perfect weather and course for a round at twilight. The course is in good shape from our recent rains and the greens are in excellent shape. The bar and grill has an nice variety of craft beers in draft and the staff is always friendly and courteous.

Good Value

Course was worth the cost. Club house and bar is going through renovations so that was an inconvenience. Overall a good experience, I'll be back.

Always check with the course for their green fees first!

My friend who did not use Golf Now got the same rate as we did from Golf Now from the course but without Golf Now's booking fees.

Last Spring Afternoon Golf Fix

Had a quiet Sunday PM available and the couch was not compelling to end the week, had to sneak in 9 for my golf fix. Plus I had my phone to watch the end of March Madness Final 4 selection. Easy check in (although pro-shop in under renovation), 2 large warm up greens, range and easy access to hole 1. All in all, i will be back, thick rough, greens a little bumpy but quick, and layout great. Fast pace, we didn't have to wait but maybe once.

Geens are true

Pace of play seemed slow on the front nine but picked up on the back. Lots of elevation changes in the back and several walkers dropped out. Fairways need some work but the large greens were in good shape. Not too much trouble on this wide open course. Enjoy.
