Fun Exec course

Although a relatively short course, the hazards prove to make it harder than it looks. You can definently loose some balls there. Course was in very nice condition.

Only 'Con' in this review

Putting greens could use better grass and sod.
Ball has a tendency to bounce and change directions radically without a visible reason.

Your chance for a hole-in-one

This par 3 course in San Diego is moderately challenging with narrow or sloping fairways and soft greens. If you're off the mark, you'll lose your ball or two, but you'll find just as many when searching for yours. Unfortunately most of the tee boxes are worn, missing grass, and you have to become accustomed to hitting off a hard sandy surface. The price is right if it costs under $20 a round. The practice hard surface putting green does not mirror actual greens on the course and it's difficult to judge speed. I did enjoy the outing, however. I always do no matter the course I play.

Tough Exec Course

If you can shoot a good score here, you can score good at any course in San Diego. This course has some tight greens locked between marsh and canyon. The four par 4's on the course are an easy birdie if you hit a ball 280 plus. I almost holed out 2 of my approach shots for eagles. All in all this course is challenging for beginners and scratch golfers alike. Great course to fine tune your game.

This is a great executive course. It's not going to challenge a low handicap golfer, but it serves its purpose.

Went with a buddy to play a quick 18. The course was not very crowded which allowed us to play at a decent pace. Didn't find the course to be incredibly challenging, but the fairways are very narrow. It's a great course to practice your iron play on.

Great Executive course

Great course in pretty good condition. Narrow tee shots require accuracy on most holes. Never too busy and can easily be finished in a couple hours. Would play everyday if I could!

Great greens w/occassional tough pin placements

One of many great courses that gets overlooked b/c of location or toughness. Even though the holes are narrow, the courses greens & fairways were in upkept condition. A few t boxes could use attention but overall great value for condition.

A gem of an executive canyon course

This is a very nice canyon executive course. It eases you in with a couple of straight forward, shortish par 3's -- and then the fun begins with tricky greens and magnetic hazards - all in a wonderful setting - at an excellent price. A great workout for your short game.

Good for the price

Got a great deal on this course through Golfnow ($17 w/cart!) so decided to check it out. Staff let us out earlier than our scheduled t-time (noon, instead of 12:45) which was nice. Never had to wait for anyone and no one was behind us which was also nice! Course is pretty challenging for an executive type, short, but with pretty small, decent greens which weren't that easy to hit. Very friendly marshall as well!

A fun and challenging gem

Tecolote starts out and ends fairly easy but in between, prepare for some white knuckle fun. Great course to challenge your iron play. Tricky sloping greens and plenty of trouble if you can't control yo irons. Fairways aren't the greatest but I reward myself with a preferred lie in the fairway. Great way to spend three hours of your day.

Good bang for the buck

I played this course for the 1st time last Sunday morning. It was one of those mornings where there was ice on the grass. The greens were biting very well and were in very good condition. Even though the greens are a bit small, they are challlenging as they are rarely flat. Some tees are elevated and a couple are low making you think about club selection. I dont usually play executive courses but this is one I will definitely play again. Good practice for the short irons...I opted to leave the woods in the bag and use long irons instead, on the few holes over 200 yards.
