Outstanding Executive Golf Course
Since I am just a beginner, I like very much how inexpensive the fee is, plus how friendly the staff are each time I visit.
Nice Course for the Money
greens were soft, bunkers had real sand in them, fairways and surrounding area well vegetated and like a park even though houses are nearby,. Houses are not in play. No need to bring driver just irons are fine. Easy to walk with very short distances between holes. There is nice elevation changes so many shots were up or down hill. Course yardage might be off on some holes because I was long on a lot, Hole #1 has to be 15 yards shorter than the scorecard. My GPS device with 15,000 preprogrammed coursed did not work at this course.
Great small course
Nice green fairways and greens. I love that lace and will be back agin and again.
St Mark executive on the way up
great executive course to play really fast rate of play a great value
tee boxess
Please please we would play here more if the tee boxes had grass. I play exec courses all over socal and they all have nice tee boxes
Great day at St. Mark's!
Wonderful staff, beautiful day. Walkable, but we chose to ride... all other golfers on the course were super nice, friendly - good course if you're a beginner/intermediate looking to get comfortable.
This course is worth it
The course is good for beginning golf ears to learn how to play. It's a challenging but not too difficult. Overall a great experience
fast play wednesday
I played for $6.50 through the tee time deal here. The course was relatively empty and in good condition. Playing here during the week is a great place to work on irons as you can play more than one ball/ extra practice if no one is behind you
Nice executive course
Excellent course for quick game. Some greens could use some work. Overall well taken care.of.
Great exec course
A fine , par 58 executive course in good condition.
St. Mark's new owners
The new owners are terrific and have made such a difference! New carts, new golf paths, new sand traps and they are watering with well water. Hopefully they will fix the drainage problem at the 4th putting green. It is a disaster! Floods everything when it rains!
pleasant surprise
greens were in good shape.... tee boxes need some serious work. walked the course and enjoyed the round. for the $$ this is the best deal in north county. played in about 2 hours with minimal waiting. the 4 par 4's are a nice break from the short par 3's. the uphill 8th says 161 yards but plays more like 185. almost got hit twice on the 16th by the group teeing off on the par 4 18th.... at least they yelled fore! good for practicing your short irons and putting.
The best excecutive golf course in N. S.D. County
The course conditions have improved 100% as the new ownership is making great strides in the quality of play and the comfort of the golfer.
Always fun for practice
I always enjoy coming out to St. Marks exec. It's pretty well maintained and there is plenty of variety to keep your short game tuned up. I would have gave another star for course condition but the tee boxes were in pretty poor shape. I do understand it's hard to keep them up on a short course though. I would recommend this course to anyone who would like to get out for a little more than a pitch and putt, but does not have time for a full course. You even can get out your driver a couple of times if you like.
Needs a Marshal on course
St. Marks is an excellent executive golf course.
Fast greens, true sand traps. The only problem is they never have a marshall on course. Play can be very slow. They should also inform golfers of on going tournaments like yesterday. Normal play is about 2.5 hours. Yesterday almost 3.5 hours.
A great little course, excellent for beginners
This is a great little course, especially for beginners who don't need to spend $50 - $100 on a round while learning the game. All of the more experienced players are super friendly and helpful, with the exception of one annoying group ahead of us that slowed down the pace of play (they played as a six-some, so they took forever on the greens).
If you go out early, you can play 18, walking, in less than 3 hours, which is also nice. The greens can be very, very fast in the morning, especially just after they are cut. You want to stay below the holes to score well on this course. But, the greens are nice and big and there are only a very few places where an errant shot gets you in deep trouble.
Played it for my first time and then 4 more times this week
The course is super fun for an exec, and not as vanilla as the others around. Has fun challenges like doglegs, trees, elevated greens, water, fast and big breaking greens.
The staff is awesome and flexible... I'm always late and they take care of me.
It's so inexpensive I can play all the time
My new favorite course!
Nice
Nice course, but there are yardage information at the tee of each hole.
