Fun, challenging course

Fairways in great shape. Tee boxes could be cleaned up a bit. Greens were fast and consistent.

Good value for the money. Back 9 was great. Will definitely be coming back

Many improvements

Course is in very good shape. Tee box grass could mowed shorter. Would be nice to have an ice machine for guests to use especially since there is no ice chest on the cart.

Fantastic Course

Traveled out to visit a friend and we decided to play this course. Since it was a weekday, they were not super busy, and we ended up chatting with staff and were a few minutes late to our tee time. Staff are nice and friendly, the course is highly maintained, and overall the experience was fantastic.

Nice course with a friendly staff.

I arrived early for my 12.20 pm tee time and was allowed to go off early as a single. Course is in good shape. Greens are very nice. After about six holes, I caught the two some in front of me and ended up joining them on the 11th hole when they caught the group ahead of them. We played at a leisurely yet good pace the rest of the round. Cart GPS appears to be accurate and was nice to reference. I found too many sand traps which were challenging to get out of. I paid with a Golfnow hot deal but was told by the group I joined that rates dropped in June. Ask the pro shop about rates other than those listed on Golfnow or the course website.

Glad to be back!

Thank you for listening to people and finally lowering your prices in the afternoon. Used to play here with my wife every week until the prices went too high. Keep them lowered in the afternoon and we will be there every week again.

Great conditions and pace of play

We were there on a Wednesday and not many other golfers were there. We played the pace we wanted. Course conditions were great. Greens were soft enough to stop a wedge and fast and smooth. I thought the layout was fun and challenging from the blue tees. I goofed up a couple shots on the blind tee shots. My only real complaint was the carts. They wouldn't let you within 75 yards of the green or tee boxes. It would complain if you went over 10 mph. I'd certainly play there again.

Highly recommendable course

This is the second time play here. The course conditions were good, and the pace of play was perfect. I enjoyed leisure nowhere like this. I will definitely plan to play again here when I travel San Diego area.
