San Vicente Golf Resort

This feels like a retirement course/resort. The course is well-maintained for the most part. Green was pretty fast and hard. Some interesting holes with fun challenging bunker setups. Overall a good experience. Would have liked to see a beverage cart and possibly more facilities around the course, but that wasn't a major issue. Around 15/16 you drive off course and signage is a bit rough but we figured it out eventually.

Greens are spectacular roll true and fairly quick for a municipal course. Bunkers are soft and clean, Fairways are in decent shape, tee boxes are flat.

Pace of play pretty slow due to the large population of elderly golfers. Afternoons tend to get filled up with the local community walking out or driving out on the golf course. Staff is friendly, the restaurant is great.

Great day after raining so much lately. Finished in 4 hr 15 min. Great for a Sunday afernoon.

Course conditions very tough right now, fairways and fringe areas are dormant and greens are very fast so it makes for a very difficult round. The biggest issue I have with this course is their battle with Golf Now to sell tee times. If you book through Golf Now you are treated as as second class citizen. I had asked if we can move up our tee time due to rain in the forecast and there were open tee times. Pro shop said I had to cancel my tee time with GN, which was prepaid and non refundable, and pay them! The last time I played the course a guy in front of me in pro shop also had an issue with his GN tee time and they told him to call GN! To make matters worse, their online booking reservation system is terrible so until they figure out how to correctly book tee times I will not play this course again.

Course is dormant and obviously wet from all the weather this past week; however, the bunkering and green complexes were unbelievable. Felt like I was playing Royal Melbourne or Seminole

We weren’t able to finish our round, however from the minute we got there, the attitude of the staff was a turn off. We drove an hour to get there and pre-paid the green fees. We were doing them a favor, but pretty much the staff could care less that we were at their course. We had been there one other time at least a year ago. Either they had Bermuda on the fairways that has gone dormant, or they didn’t prepare their fairways with all of the great rain we have had. The fairways are thin, like dirt, with maybe slight fluff here and there. The greens are cut way too tight and have many divots throughout. Therefore, pin placements are literally ridiculous. No reason to drive that far, and pay the fees to golf there. Not worth a half of tank of gas. Read the other recent reviews. They are legitimate. There is no way that someone could give them a 5-star rating with the state of the course.

Live in Ohio. Our municipal courses are far superior to this overrated course. While the layout is beautiful. The groundskeeper needs to put some work into this course. Terrible pin positions on the green.

Save your money.

Had not played the course since it was redone. Used to play at least 3-4 times a year. Course hadn't really been in very good shape for many years, but it was always ok as the track is interesting and price point ok. There was a 3hr frost delay when we arrived for a 12 time (no notification provided of this, but was a Teeoff time). Regardless, we got out about on time. Thought the fairways were dormant Bermuda, but really basically dirt. Only could hit off it, because of so much recent rain. Greens were really thin - almost no grass. Like some other reviews, the greens following the redo are ridiculous. The undulations are poorly thought out and way over the top. Agree with those who said it is like a putt-putt course. With almost no grass (green), they were mostly unputtable. Some flags were in absurd positions given the undulations. Probably hard to justify returning and the current cost. Terrible redesign. Should have just spent the money on better water management and the old greens....

My son lives 2 minutes from the course and I have wanted to play it for the last 4 years. I live in Cleveland where numerous courses referring to our metro parks and public courses are far superior to San Vecente.

For the condition of the fairways , which were burned out on every fairway, the rates to play here are outrageous. If you like hitting every shot off the fairway on dirt, this is the place for you.

I did love the design of the course whoever put the pin placements on the greens doesn’t have a clue.

Many greens had the flags in a downhill position which were impossible to putt.

I played the course once…….a total disappointment. I won’t be back.

Your brochure of the course looks fantastic, too bad the course doesn’t look like the brochure.

I did have fun playing golf with my son.

Great condition ,every bunker perfect, greens unbelievable, almost too fast, great french fries, a true resort golf course.

If you like fairways full of weeds and overpaying for green fees, this is your place. $90 to play is such a joke, it’s maybe worth $20. This place is kind of a dump to be honest. The Marshall is rude and unprofessional. I will never golf here again. So many other courses that aren’t an hour away from San Diego that are worth the money. I’m not quite sure how this place has such good reviews. Not worth it. Golfer beware.
