Good Shape
With every course, I start with the greens. They were rolling well, but a tad slow for my liking…9.5 maybe.
The bunkers are a little better. Can somewhat play out of them. I understand the course is going to get a complete redesign and probably why a lots not going into the course at this time.
Overall, we play here 3 times a month, so come out and enjoy.

So slow
Please space out the start times, people are playing slow on having start time every 8-9 minutes isn’t working.
High rates for sub par course conditions on top of the slowest pace at any course I’ve played in San Diego is awful.
Used to be a great course with normal rates and good pace

Late tee time
As we booked the tee time for 1:24 we didn’t expect a full round. We got 14 holes in at the end of the day.
The layout was challenging but very doable for the average golfer. Lots of dry spots with no grass on the fairway but you definitely got the roll. Being from WA state we would rather have the latter.
Greens were damp so they weren’t super fast. The downhill putts weren’t do or die.
Pro shop gets high ratings for friendliness and service.
Range there so we could warm up was important

This is a dog park.
Absolutely the worst condition course i have very seen.
Not bad
Definitely not a bad course, pace of play is quite slow, but still had a good time.

Bunkers need lots of work
The bunkers and traps are terrible. They haven't been maintained. They are hard packed - might just as well be hitting off the cart path.

Great Greens - Fairways OK
The greens were in great shape as well as the tee boxes. The grass was a bit sparse and really short on the majority of the fairways. But the pace of play was excellent and the course layout is beautiful.
Needs a lot of maintenance
Pace of play was glacial. Saw the "ambassador" once the whole time. Fairways are like hitting off concrete. Only bright spot was the drink cart.
A day of golf
Haven’t played much in San Diego, but decided to play somewhere not too far from Mira Mesa so location was convenient. Course greens were good, tee boxes grass a bit long and interesting golf layout. Lots of dirt & bare areas on the course. On the weekdays, there doesn’t seem to be any marshals so pace of play was very, very slow so we weren’t able to finish 18 holes before dark even though started at 12:30pm.
