Love this executive course
I love this executive of course very challenging while maintain greens are also challenging. The scenery is beautiful people that I played with are always very friendly. Would definitely recommend to friends and to replay if it’s not busy a good value I haven’t played the par 3 18 holes but it looks amazing.
Going Downhill
Round of golf took nearly 4 hours on a short course. Pace of play was terrible. Course conditions were BAD especially the tee boxes. Somehow they have managed to ruin all of the tees = rock hard, and 60% dirt. Other parts of the course have standing water. My regular golf group will not be coming back here to play for a while.
St Patrick’s Day Tournament
Very disappointing experience. The pro shop let six public foursomes play in the middle of a shotgun tournament. Wish that the golf experience was more of a priority over packing the course and bowing down to the almighty dollar.
Fun little course
Totally enjoyed the course, the only recommendation I would have is to trim back some of the branch’s that obscure the flight path to the green. Only the ones just outside the tee box, leave the rest, we enjoyed the challenge. I’ll be back many times to come.
Welk Fountains Course... Fun
Such a great executive course. Hit every iron in the bag at least once. Think I only pulled the same club off the tee once or twice on the par 3s. One the par 4s you can hit 3w or just about any iron from 4-7 off the tee and still have a perfect wedge in. Staff was phenomenal. Course layout and conditions were 4.5-5 out of 5.
Valentines Day Golf
Staff was extremely friendly.. I was thanked for booking my tee time and paying online. That’s never happened before!! Starter was very friendly and had us start before our scheduled tee time.
Course was a good shape, especially the greens. Even though this is an executive course don’t be fooled - it is challenging. Even my husband, who has golfed first 55 years, had difficulties on some holes. The greens were really fast and had our four some baffled at times on properly reading the greens. We had a great time though and will be back!
Not Impressed with starter
T-time for 2 at 7:03, arrived at 6:45. Starter started a foursome with three carts, who had the same t-time followed by a threesome. We were eventually started at 7:20. A little communication and general politeness would have gone a long way. Groups were nice enough to let us play through, but it could have been managed better. Other than the start golf was great and the course was in great shape.
Beautiful par 4 course
Being a less than average player, this is an exceptional course for me and my friend. The course is so beautifully groomed that even poor shots lay in great places. We played quickly and waited only a while for the people in front. It’s so pleasant on the course that a small wait is nothing! I’m looking forward to playing there again.
Not bad, a little overpriced though!
Grass was exceptional, tee boxes fairways and greens! The course is challenging and very fun, you get to use most clubs in your bag, not much driver action however. Greens a challenge as well, very well well maintained! 35 dollar hot deal almost worth it, not quite!
Pristine
I haven't played at Welk's for several years, I forgot how perfect it is maintained. The fairways, the greens all in top shape. Best in SD County.
Great course. Excellent shape.
This is a hidden gem. Always in great shape and a mix of challenging and rewarding layouts. Sits somewhere between and executive and a long and large course. Great value.
Great Golf for a Low Price
This is a great course to work on your short game. Challenging and fun. Beautiful scenery.
Don’t play here
I didn’t get to play because they didn’t have a tee time.... but you still charged me to book the tee time. This has happened to me before.
Short but lots of fun!
Just spent a week at the resort and played the course 3 times with my fiancee. I was a little skeptical at first being an "executive" course but it turned out to be a very pleasant surprise.
We had been given free golf for the week based on listening to a resort presentation on time share opportunities upon check in. We went out twice after 3 pm and found that we were one a only a few people playing the course then, open to play at our pace. The third time was earlier in the day and it was very slow. We both had a lot of fun each time and my fiancee found it to be a great length course for her play. The layout, while shorter is very well done and the greens were in perfect condition. Being California and dry, don't expect a lush fairway, but they are fair.
I would recommend and we will be back for another visit.
Play on!
Great hidden gem of a course.
Upon arriving at the course nested within the mountains East of the I-15 I found myself happy to see this course was set up for mainly iron play with the longest par four being just over three hundred yards. We both were us to long courses, so this was awesome to challenge our short game! We'll be playing this course again, soon>>>>>>.
Really nice, enjoyable course
Get out and play the Fountain Course, you will enjoy it !
Sincerely,
Craig
Champagne Play at a Beer rate
For the money, it was good. The greens were in ok shape, could use some work. If your looking to have a low score, this is the place to play. Lots of par 3's and 4's. a par 5 would have been nice. I would play it again and would recommend it to others.
Always a good day
Fountains course is a bit shorter than some but a great layout, elevation changes and beautiful green fairways.
Great people inside the shop and in the field. Never fails to be a fun time.
