No Changes

Course hasn’t improved at all since I first played here I was excited at first because I just live down the road and it’s convenient for me to play a twilight If I felt like playing last minute but the last few times I’ve played the course just looks terrible carts are outdated and hard to turn the wheel definitely get what you pay for low price low quality course definitely DO NOT RECOMMEND! Just as bad if not worse than eagle crest

Shoot straight, bring extra balls

Fun course, challenging course, pretty scenery. Definitely being extra balls unless you’re a confident golfer. You will likely loose a few balls unless you can consistently shoot very straight. Overall pretty unique and fun course through the canyon.

Challenging and fun!

Tecolote has been a top favorite for me in San Diego county. It's a challenging, narrow, par-3 course that nearly confirms you'll be losing balls at some point within your time playing. I truly enjoy this course not only for the MUCH cheaper price of 18holes vs. most other San Diego courses, but for the kind and considerate players I've typically found while playing there. Pace of play is great, most of the time, and no matter what it's always a challenging course for me and I love it.

Wouldn’t recommend to anyone

Manager, Jonah, is just lazy and rude. Untrained staff at the front desk. Greens were okay, that was the only upside. Maintenance workers and random people in carts and cars were driving by. Backed up on every hole. Don’t bother if it’s going to cost you more than 15 to play.

Course Conditions Improving...

It's been sometime since I played at Tecolote Canyon and I am pleased to report some positive changes going on.

I noticed that several trees being cut back, many of the fairways are green as apposed to dirt, some new stairs to a few tee boxes, and it looks like they are maintaining what they have a little better as well as working to make improvements to the course.

Things to Address: #1 Fix or rebuild the Tee Boxes, Edge the Greens (crabgrass growing from first cut into the greens) Take care when replacing pin holes on greens (several replaced holes were much lower than the green)

Great course

You’ll have trouble shooting par here. Great layout but tee boxes need attention. Greens are immaculate!
