Reduce the height of the rough and remove the leaves please.
The rough needs to have one or more cuts before the deep rough begins and the leaves covering rough that is cut to 1.5"- 3' deep makes finding a ball 2' - 5' off the fairway nearly impossible to find. The pace of play is so slow because every player is wasting time looking for their shot...lol. The course is so good otherwise but for the love of golf please chill out the rough!
Pace of play was awful.
Played the Front 9 in 2:45 hours . Debated on Quitting… ended up playing the front again in 1:10! Will never play there again.
Nice
Nice and fair course . Greens were a bit rough ( recently punched ) and rough grass was too high . Normally a well groomed course . I play here twice a month because of the value .
Greens were awful.
Greens were very poorly conditioned.
Slow and bumpy.
Nice layout for a golf course
Extremely playable for high handicappers, yet challenging for low handicappers as well. One of the better courses I've played in the central coast. Looking forward to playing the course again.
Great staff and community
Lost my putter and don’t think I would ever see it again. But surely enough it was return to the pro shop and gladly gave it back to me.
First time playing.
Great course and layout. Pace of play suffered due to a group of 7 playing in front of us. We called the pro shop on the 12th hole and they did nothing about it.
Alisal Review
Course is in good shape but unfortunately restaurant closes at 2:00 so no refreshments available.
