Amazing course!
The course conditions are excellent shape, the back nine is the best challenge.
The staff is amazing both in the clubhouse and the pro shop.
They have a wonderful snack bar and a outstanding restaurant & bar.
The chef in the restaurant puts out amazing food...
"Roasted brussels sprouts and an amazing prime rib dip sandwich with truffle waffle fries"!
Way overpriced.
I’ve played several public courses that were in better shape overall.

Solid course
We had an early morning tee time, got through in 3:15.. and that was with some waiting on the tee.
Course conditions were alright, nothing glaringly bad. I’m not sure it’s worth the $99 - but if you can play for $50-60, I think it’s perfect.
Shorter course, but make sure you keep it straight…Driver didn’t see the light too often! Definitely check it the course.

Buyer Beware
If you like putting on greens that are layered with sand, this is the course for you. I was truly disappointed when I saw my approach shot to the 1st green produced a splash - and it wouldn’t be the only green that produced that effect. The greens had so much sand that they were actually a sandy color rather than green. Needless to say, the greens were virtually unplayable. It is unconscionable that there was no mention of a recent aerification on the booking website.
On the plus side, the bunkers I hit into had plenty of sand and were in decent shape despite the morning rain. Even so, I felt like I wasted my time (and money) playing this course due to the condition of the greens.
I suggest golfers wait at least another week (or two) before booking it.

Pala Mesa
Fun course to play. Keep your ball on the fairway, the rough is rougher than rough. Very difficult to find stray balls. It definitely needs a mow. The rough impedes the pace of play. Greens were fast and true. Fairways well maintained. Definitely 2 different 9 hole courses. Front is relatively flat, back has a little more character.
Hi, Dburley01. Thank you so much for your feedback. We are glad you had enjoyed your time at Pala Mesa Resort, and pride ourselves on delivering the best experience possible.
We hope to see you again soon!
Fun day of golf
This course is in good shape, has lots of challenge & a few quirky holes. It is set in a beautiful area but the freeway noise is intense on a couple of holes. Range mats are pretty worn but still functional. Disappointed to see the midway snack shack closed early so that we picked up a bag of chips at the restaurant so as not to lose our place on the course-- was hoping for a bit more quick options.
Pace was a bit slow due to a very slow group 3 ahead of us . Other players were friendly -- an enjoyable day, reasonable price.
Thanks so much for the great review, u000007117543. We look forward to welcoming you back to our course soon. Thanks for choosing Pala Mesa Resort.
