Lake house golf course is an excellent value
Lake House Golf Course formally known as Lake San Marcos golf course is a true hidden secret. Tucked behind San Marcos High School it is off the beaten path. The course is in overall excellent shape even with the recently punched greens. The restaurant and welcoming balcony are great spots to eat some snacks, enjoy a drink or two with friends. This course is a great value for the money. If you’ve not played here before, you would be well served to try it next time you are in North County
Great overall experience!
Love this course. Played it many times. Great experience from start to finish. The team is top notch and the course continues to improve and level up. The clubhouse and resturant are great as well. Love the course layout. The back 9 especially has some really great views in the course.
Good Day
It was a pleasant day. Walked it and enjoyed it.
Some bare patches on the fairways but generally okay. Somewhat muddy.
Overall the greens were good.
As a first time player I wished I had been warned when checking in about driving range he to the left of hole 1.
Enjoyable experience
Love this little course! Well maintained and laid out.
Many fairways needing work
Fairways on many holes were a bit beaten up. Greens were in fairly good condition and had recently been punched (about 3 weeks earlier. Some areas off the immediate fairway were overly wet. Pace of play was good.
Nice executive course
The only thing wrong with the courses is a few holes have large wet &muddy spots in front of the green..otherwise a great course.
Fun course
Fun course, a little bit soggy in some areas. For the $, it was an awesome value. Great weather!
Great course w/ great value.
Pleasantly surprised by the course and it's price. Well maintained, few physical issues that are not even worth detailing, great price. Above average practice areas. Course is laid out in and around a planned community w/ only a few adjacent fairways making it a little tight at times for those who might send a tee shot left or right. Some holes seem unrealistically long to make par but overall a good test of your club selection skills. Absolutely walkable with only a couple elevation changes that will give you a pretty fair leg workout. You need to give this course a try. Greens are pretty fast but smooth. Well worth the money and drive.
Great Course
First time playing this course! It was great. With how many people that were there I was surprised with the fast pace of play. 10/10 recommend!
Find local course
Great course for a no frills round of golf. Green fees are doable, the driving range is excellent and the staff is the best.
Great Course, Not So Great Members
The staff, range and course are awesome. Greens roll fast. But we had 2 run-ins with “members” that kinda tarnished the day. One called the marshall on us on the 2nd hole thinking we didn’t belong or have a tee time scheduled. The other was wildly rude at the turn because we were trying to keep pace of play. They put us behind by 15 minutes. Aside from these interactions, the place was nice. Not sure we’d play again though.
Worth the Drive
I came up from Spring Valley to play the course, and was not disappointed. LOVE the course. A few fairways had some dry spots but not enough to be an issue. The sand in the green-side traps is very thin, with hard pan underneath - do not use your high-bounce wedge. The greens are in great shape, consistently fast and some are very tricky to read the slope. I carts have geo-fencing limits that will stall or stop the cart to keep you out of areas they don't want you to go, but there are very few warnings on the cart display. End result is that you don't usually know where those "fences" are -- got pretty tired of that! All in all though, the course is well worth the price.
Find course at affordable pricing
Great course for all of those. Looking to play late in the day. Lots of teetimes at decent prices. The course is in good condition and holes are challenging.
Poor Condition
This course has been in terrible condition for far too long.
The rough is deep and wet. in many case its a swamp. There are muddy areas in the fairways and many holes have numerous bare dirt in front of the greens. there are also bare patches on some of the greens. Traps are often muddy dirt (no sand). Tee boxes are generally in poor shape with bare patches and little grass.
Pathways to the Tee Boxes are bare dirt (often muddy)
The green fees were raised a couple months age, ostensibly to allow better maintenance. So far I've seen no improvement and in fact conditions have gotten even worse.
I will not play this course again and don't recommend it to anyone.
