You get what you pay for but this was worse
I didn’t expect 5 star experience but some basic amenities aren’t out of the question. Wanted a pull cart so I could walk. None left. How about hitting some balls on the range beforehand? Nope, no balls left.
Course conditions? Greens acceptable. The rest of it? Deplorable
Pace was horrific, sooooo slow. I finally gave up after hole 16 and drove to the exit.
Won’t return not worth the aggravations
Great course and staff
I am one of the regulars out there. I love to play and socialize with the staff and other golfers.
Worst golf course in the entire USA
Terrible conditions everywhere on this golf course.
Zero maintenance throughout the place
No rest rooms anywhere on the course
Fairways are dead , just dirt mostly
Greens half dead too ! No one ever repairs divits, holes everywhere.
Thank you for letting us know, and we apologize for the experience you had. We will use this as a learning experience on how we can improve.
Great course and staff
I am a regular out there. I show up 3-4 times a week. If I dont get on and play I will spend a couple hpurs just practicing and eating lunch at the bar. I love the staff. Makes it feel like home away from home. I am disabled and got into playing golf from John Klein. He is now a very good friend and backup to any golf questions. It would be nice if you guys had some best ball scramble tournaments :-) LOVE those.
Josh, we love having you as one of our regulars! Thanks so much for the kind words. Have a wonderful day!
Exceptional Staff
From the time I walked in to the pro shop I was impressed with the staff. They were extremely welcoming and friendly. Willie, the starter, was especially warm and friendly. I left my cell phone behind when I left. When I returned to find it, Willie did everything he could to find it. Eventually we were able to track it down on the course where Willie drove me out to pick it up. I am so grateful to him.
We appreciate the review. Thanks for taking the time. Hope you have an amazing day!
Terrible golf course
The fairways are in poor conditions. No one repairs the green divots. Sand traps were just dirt , no Sand there. One porta potty on the entire course.
Little to no maintenance though out the course. The pace of play was extremely slow. It took 5 hours and 30 minutes plus to play. They obviously over book the course.
We appreciate your feedback but are sorry to hear your experience wasn’t great. Your remarks will be shared with the team.
Fun, but backed up.
I enjoy playing Cottonwood, but this time the course was really backed up. One or two groups at every tee. Normally that is not the case here. We'll still return in the future.
Thanks for reviewing us. Your feedback is appreciated. Your comments will be passed along to the management team.
cottonwood
Getting better all the time, great people working there, fries the best in San Diego, greens excellent. Keep up the good work.
We appreciate the positive feedback. It means a lot. Hope to see you again in the near future!
Classic course
The staff friendliness is the best you could expect from a public course.
The course was in decent shape.
The value here can't be beat.
Thank you for the review. Hope to see you again in the near future!
Great value!
You want an onsite 5 star restaurant? Go somewhere else
You want a complete full Driving range? Go somewhere else.
You want a GPS on your golf cart? Go somewhere else.
You want to walk or ride a nice 18 hole challenging course and not pay $60, $70, $80 or more then play here. Great value for the money. We’ll be back soon!
That's wonderful to hear. Thanks so much for leaving us a review. Hope to see you again in the near future!
False picture on internet
Got to be a lot of either fake reviews or bought reviews Lets start with the picture you see on line from a golf course that's been closed for years the condition of this course is so bad form them to charge more then 30.00 with a cart to play here is criminal Very nice staff everyone always seems to be in a good mood
Thank you for letting us know, and we apologize for the experience you had. Unfortunately, we are unable to edit the photos on GolfPass.
New owner should be ashamed
I get it you bought the place to dig it up and build house's since that's not gonna happen how about fixing the place up a little maybe even reopen the lakes make the lake really nice and charge a premium to play it were in San Diego can you find an island hole ? anyway it's to bad they course is in this condition now I know why they call you the GRIM Ripper of golf courses
