The Vineyard at Escondido

Starter not managing tee sheet properly, people jumping ahead of their tee time and let 6 people tee off at the same tee time slot. Pace of play is not managed, no Marshall around when groups are 2 holes behind. Round of golf was almost 6 hours, ridiculous.

The big thing I'm walking away with is how crowded the driving range was. Warming up with a small bucket before the round was nearly impossible as everyone in a range stall had a jumbo bucket of balls. Might be nice if the course reserved a few bays for warm-up versus those there on range time.

Beyond that, course in good shape, moved well, and pretty much a what you see is what you get course.

Usual Saturday morning 5 hour round. Conditions not so great all around. Wet patches, dirt patches, no rakes in the bunkers.

I hadn't played here in many years because I remember it being very slow pace of play. Sadly nothing has changed. Overbooked and slow.

2nd time coming tho this course, first time I didn’t get to finish all the holes, but this time I got an early tee time to make sure I do all 18. Without a doubt, this is a beautiful course to play. It’s both challenging and somewhat manageable depending on how your game is that day.

Great course, friendly staff and full bar.

Greens are in excellent condition and well manicured! Fairways are Fair and very playable. Look out for wind speeds and directions to pick-up in early afternoon.

there are many OB's (right mostly) throughout the course. A few "need to know" holes as you aren't sure where the green is. Fairways need the grass to grow in many areas. Greens were in good shape but mostly were sloped. Lots of distance between green to tee on many holes

Overbooked consistently. Groups congregating at first tee, dis organized with no starter for whom has the succeeded tee time. Marshalls on the move to assist with pace of play. However, the Marshalls began to whistle and yell at someone on a near by par 3 as I putting out. I don't care about my putt, but if someone whistled and yelled at me from their cart because I was retrieving my ball from a hazard, I'd be a bit taken back. No Cart girl to help the swing.

Fun course, be warned that it does have a lot of elevation change in the back 9 for those who choose to walk.

A good mix of straightforward and tricky holes to challenge you.
