Greens were perfect!
Great time at Santa Barbara GC. Greens were perfect and pace of play awesome. Got done as 4 players under four hours and was actually waiting in a few holes, so could have gone faster. Easy location to get to and good price on GolfNow!
Nice muni course
Always enjoy playing this course. They are making improvements. A little impacted by drought but doing the best they can.
Bill,
Thank you for the nice review. We are trying our best to make Santa Barbara Golf Club the best it can be.
Santa Barbara Muni
Great Muni course! Suprisingly uncrouded for a Sunday round. Teed off at 12:00 done by 3:30 grounds are in good shape a couple of greens were punched but not all. Good value for $45 including cart. Golf Now saved us $18 for two players.
Glad you enjoyed it here. Hope to see you back again soon!
Not worth the money
When we arrived for our 11:23 tee time they were about 45 minutes behind schedule - we finally teed off at noon and it was very slow - most tee boxes had two groups waiting - one of the carts we had stopped running on the 10th hole (this is the 2nd time this has happened) - we had to stop at 4:00 with 5 holes left - not cheap place to play either - not sure of the alternatives in the area but would of been better to go to the beach.
Sorry about your experience here. We always try hard to make sure the pace of play is as fast as it can be. Your feedback has helped us improve. Thank you.
This is the best course for the money in Santa Barbara. They just got all new carts and they are very nice. I don't know where you live but anything less than $70.00 bucks with a cart is a bargain for weekend golf. Sorry you had a bad day.
Why'd you 'have' to stop at 4? I don't know of a single place where I can guaranty i'll finish 18 holes in just over 4 hours, let alone on a Saturday, teeing off in the middle of the day.
You Will Enjoy the Course
This is the Muni course in SB. It is maintained well for a public course. Moderately difficult, with some holes requiring you to hit from a downhill or sidehill lie. Overall, you should enjoy playing it.
Thank you for the kind words. Really glad you enjoyed the course!
Good but hilly
Hillier than expected - need to be somewhat fit to walk. Some blind shots. Good value, and good views. Pleasant experience. Would play again. Could be better maintained.
Thank you for the kind review!
Very challenging, Fast greens, great shape
First off I have to say that I was very impressed with the course condition. Greens were excellent but very fast, to fast for this amateur and part of the reason for our slow play.
We played early Friday morning with a twosome that did not play well. Lost balls, long setup for each shot etc... The short of it was the 3some behind us were waiting at each hole after #6. We let them play thru but was constantly pushed by the marshal.
Overall It was a good experience and would love to play again.
Glad you had such a great experience here. Have you been back since?
On Par ;-)
Hehe, look at the title.
Great course and we got a great deal.
Thank you! Hope there have been many more pars for you.
Short but challanging
Course is short, even from the tips, but offers very challanging greens and difficult fairway lies. Greens require some attention but overall very nice for a muni if you can tolerate some of the people who play there and dont have much golf etiquette.
Daniel,
Thanks for the kind review!
This course has great features when invest more
so many player beginner and they need practice range ball first
and many player don't know
need lean etiquette in the bunker and green repair
Nice Muni
This course is a nice Muni. Great value. Some people could play faster is the only concern.
Thank you for the great review!
Nice Course, Great Location
Santa Barbara Golf Club is a well maintained course offering very nice mountain and some ocean views. Greens are generally quick although currently more ball marks than usual on some greens. A few tricky holes that can inflate a score but most of the course is straight forward. The price is relatively high for a Muni course but by using Golf Now that price can come down considerably. There is value here/
Thank you for the kind review!
Beautiful Course
This was a beautiful course and so far the one that fit our skill level the best. Wide fairways and large greens. This course is immaculate and the staff were awesome. I would probably make this the club we joined but for the distance. Loved playing here and loved the beuty of the course.
Thank you for the glowing review Paul. Have you been back since?
Very friendly / Great Condition
Received a very friendly welcome in the pro shop.
Great deal on a nearly new set of rental clubs.
Course in excellent condition.
Not the most challenging but perfect for mid to high handicaps.
Glad to hear of your pleasant experience. Have we seen you since you posted this review?
Santa Barbara Golf Club is a nice muni course!
As far as muni courses, this is a nice place to play. The driving range isn't much more than a place to warm up. Sure, Santa Barbara has some top courses, but those come at a price! If your on a budget or just want something "low key" and not too challenging, I recommend Santa Barbara Golf Club.
The course was in great shape and it was a great day
This is a beautiful municipal course and the staff is always friendly. We had a great day and met a new friend.
Thank you for the great review. Greatly appreciated!
Challanging,nice course
Price quoted was for walking,the cart added an additional $34.
Very Playable course
Nicely maintained with well balanced holes that favor average to good golfers. The greens are fast overall. Nice for a City course
Thank you Jim for playing Santa Barbara Golf Club. Hope to see you out here again sometime.
Best cost performance in this area.
The Muni is great for the green fee vs. quality. The green is about 10.5 and excellent for municipal golf curse.
Thank you for the kind words and for playing Santa Barbara Golf Club. Have we seen you back since you left this review?
Great condition and beautiful views
This course was a great place to play. I will definitely play here again.
Glad to hear you had a great time. Will we see you back again?
Thank you! Glad to hear you had such a great time at Santa Barbara Golf Club. Hopefully you made some birdies birdie boy.
