Great value

The course is lots of fun for the price. It is surprisingly long which makes for a good challenge,, but it's also hard to lose balls with the wide fairways (and several yards of dirt to the sides).

If you are a high handicapper looking for a good value in the area, this is your best bet.

course was to be expected for money spent. Flat track but just way too many golfer holes. Bumby ride and greens could use some work

Do Not Waste Your Money

If I could negative stars I would. Terrible course conditions for $47 unless you like off-roading your golf cart on their “fairways”. This money isn’t going towards making the course any nicer. A younger crowd should never play here considering the older members do nothing but talk negatively in your back swing. Perfect place to demolish and built homes on.

Very inexpensive

It’s a bargain so it was fairly crowded. 4 hrs and 40 minutes. Front nine is in better shape .

Course needs work

The price was great. Ended up playing alone. Some of the fairways are terrible. The greens were bumpy at first but there was a greens keeper mowing them today. He was behind me so I let him "mow through." After that they rolled good. They have some bare spots but it looks like they are growing in. The fairway on hole number 10 was terrible. They have a ground squirrel infestation that has taken over that fairway.

Rip Off

This course was the only place left in SoCal with decent tee times last weekend. Now I know why. It is easily the worst maintained golf course I have ever played in my 35+ years of playing. While I had low expectations because of the available tee times, I was not ready for the massive take-over of gophers, narrow strips of patchy grass (fairways?), and the surrounding acres of raw hard dirt. The green fees were modest but grossly over-priced given the deplorable conditions. Won't be going back...

Sad Conditions

We played yesterday, looking forward to what used to be an "ok" course. We were appalled at fairway conditions. Hundreds of ground squirrels, gophers and moles have destroyed the course. Flooded areas and turned up soil on every hole and very inconsistent greens conditions made for a very frustrating day. Prices have gone up but the course isn't benefitting from any of that extra money.

One of the worst dumps ever. Castle Creek move aside!

Played this course today, what a complete dump this place is. I thought the worst place was Castle Creek in Escondido, but this place is definitely the runner up. Why? Worst layout, worst fairways, worst greens, holes everywhere. Basically is like a nuke came off in the middle of this golf course, so pretty apocalyptic. Worst of all, quite pricey for what they offer. You are better off playing at Red Hawk. Would I play this place again, only if I was a zombie.

What a dump

The course was awful, I’m pretty sure I lost a ball in the middle of the fairway to a ground squirrel hole. I’ve only been playing for 25 years, but this is definitely the worst kept course I’ve ever played. On one hole, there was a gallery of ground squirrels watching us tee off from the tee box. All I can say is wow.....I made it to the 11th and stopped there it was so bad.

The greens were hard as a rock with big brown spots, and there were big giant swamps in most fairways.

No fun.

Super Saver made it worth my time.

I had not played in a few weeks. I wanted to shake off the rust. Thanks to Super Saver I could go to the range or go here for almost the same price. No other reason to play here
