Challenging layout, poor conditioning

Fairways and tee boxes are in rough shape. They way over water the course, making the course way too soft. Would be better off if they let the fairway/greens bake out a bit.

The Vineyards

The Vineyards was a very enjoyable course to play.Unfortunately no Beverage cart on course. The only bummer was the foursome ahead of us was the slowest ever.but the surrounding views around the beautiful course was gorgeous. We also had a redtail hawk land within 25 feet of one of our tee boxes that was just beautiful. And of course perfect weather.

Solid Course and Overall Experience

Haven’t played here in years. Got a hot deal to do so this past Sunday and was pleased to see how it’s been holding up. Customer service is great, ambassador’s are friendly, and overall the course is great to play. There were a few hold ups but overall pace was good. Considering it’s Escondido some dry/rough patches are to be expected but not too bad overall.

Sand Traps hard as a rock

Course is in excellent condition other than the sand traps.

They were hard as a rock. Suggest they put some fluffy sand in.
