Good conditions
Greens have yet to be recovered after punching a month ago. - NEED WATER.
Course was alright.
What golf course runs out of range balls? It really messed up my game and through me off. The course was in decent shape, the fairways were one of the nicest around. Pace of play is slower than molasses. The Marshalls on this course think they work at Torrey Pines or a PGA tour course. Don’t forget your receipt or the Marshall will hunt you down and think you’re an escaped convict although you paid for your green fees already. I don’t plan on coming back unless this is the only golf course with a tee time available.
Fabulous Course!!!
This course is just great!!! Pro shop is tiny. Good bar and great course maintenance. Will for sure be back.
Great, friendly local course!
We have been coming here for about a couple decades and have seen the many changes over time. We still miss the Lakes Course as an option to play. And we really miss Tim who was our favorite friendly Greeter for so many years.
But, we do not miss all the leaves that used to be everywhere on the ground! The new owner/manager has been doing a great job on keeping the course beautiful and more enjoyable. The tons of leaves are regularly cleaned up so the balls don’t get lost so easily. It was so frustrating. But now, the fairways and tree lines look clean and inviting. And we don’t go crazy looking for our balls! We appreciate the overall upgrading and care of the course. And the great deals available online. Keep it going.
Great option
Some fairways not grown in with grass. Greens recently sanded and aerated so putts were slow. Speed was acceptable. It was a little crowded. They provide a military discount so hurrah for that! Didn't take advantage of grill at the turn but recommended to call from #9 tee box to place an order. Long walk to #10 tee box from pro shop. Very pleasant inside and outside staff. Started keeps groups well spaced and fills in less than 4 players with singles. I would golf here again.
Best conditions in a long while
Actual grass in the fairways! Greens punch still not recovered after 2 weeks.
Another good day
I enjoy Cottonwood Ivanhoe for value and practice. Ofter seems that some golfers are uncouth. Probably because of the inexpensive cost.
Aerated. No warning
Lame that it was full price to play aerated. Should not have been as expensive as it was.
Good for the money
This is the cheapest course I will play. There is grass everywhere, the greens, when not punched, are good. The trees will force you to think and will penalize you if you don’t hit it straight. Certainly worth the $23.00 I paid when walking.
Course conditions ok but awful off-course amenities
The course was ok overall considering the greens had just been punched. Play pace was good, most fairways wide are pretty open; unfortunately the man restroom was disgusting, and the driving range was also in very poor condition. We managed to have a good time despite the struggles with the punched greens. I would recommend this course if you get a discounted rate only, otherwise, there are many better options in San Diego County in this price range.
Unfortunate
They neglected to tell us the greens were punched; Not only that, access to the inside was not allowed;(due to remodeling).I.e., clubhouse, restroom facilities…..with that being said, I would like to cancel my reservation for next Thursday, April 7, due to extremely warm conditions and the above- mentioned.
Suits Me Fine
A variety of holes for distance and playability. Greens are fair and fast and true. Fun track
Great value at an aging facility
Outstanding value for very nice course. Driving range is a joke. Other practice areas are above average. Photo of island green on website is of a hole that doesn’t even exist any more. No drink cart. Buildings are ancient and show it. It’s obvious they put their money into maintaining the course and not the facilities.
If you want an inexpensive but enjoyable golf round, this is it. Just ignore the amenities and you will love this course.
Good condition
Course is in good shape.
Great deal for the green fee!
Fun layout
