This course is always a pleasure!
For an executive course, LW Fountains Course has some beautiful, challenging and imaginative holes. Arguably the best exec course in the county and usually pristine, however a number of the greens had some sort of fungus issue going on making them very rough to putt on. I am sure they will eventually take care of this though. I would still recommend the course.
Very interesting & Challanging
Because it's built on a hill it makes for some interesting & carefull club selection. Uphill = more club & of course downhill = less. It has a bit of everything found on regulation courses & I enjoyed it thoroughly.
Greens in nice condition, fairways need work.
Overall great course for the money.
Pleasurable afternoon
Course was in good shape, staff was very friendly. Play somewhat slow due to some older players. They graciously allowed us to pass by. Course allows the use of all clubs.
Good Course
Fun executive course. Nice elevation changes and some really cool looking holes. Some longer par3's and nice par 4's. Used most of the clubs in my bag. I plan on playing again very soon.
The Fountains are Fabulous
We love playing the Fountains. The course is beautiful and challenging.
A great place to go.
Harder than one might think due to the topography challenge that I find makes it much more interesting. Longest hole is about 300 yards and that is long enough for me.
Great executive course
I enjoy playing this course as it doesn't have any par 5's for me to stress over! It is a rolling course so the terrain can be a challenge for people who miss the fairways occasionally! It was a pleasure to return to as I had played it a few years ago when I was learning how to play golf so it was nice to see how I had improved!
the staff is friendly and professional
the course has a variety of shots to be played which makes up for the lack of length. the greens are fair but challenging. fun course to play.
Crowded with long waits.
Very crowded with long waits on every hole. No course marshal. People giving instructions to very slow novice players. Novice players should be playing the Oaks Course while play on the Fountains needs to be monitored to establish consistent flow.
This was a really fun course. Not to big, not too little.
This course is a little larger than most executive pitch and put courses. However, it is easily played in 3 hours or a little more depending on pace. I enjoyed the scenery, and I thought the course was very well maintained. I would definitely golf here again.
Good short game practice
Short little par three course with most holes being less than 100 yards. Only used my small irons. Great way to practice your short game. Green grass, orange leaves on the ground, blue sky, great San Diego winter day. Greens were well maintained and some are pretty challenging. I played this course 2 days in a row and will be back again to work on my putting. Hopefully they move the pin location around next time. Not worth your time if you are an advanced player, great for beginners like me.
This course is perfect for golfers looking to test their skills or improve their game
Trying to return to golf after a 20 year absence. Have been playing short executive golf courses. Decided upon this course as a next step because it has 8 par fours and 10 par threes. Playing from the back tees was quite a challenge and motivates me to continue to work on my game. I recommend playing this course to anyone looking to test every aspect of their game.
Waste of time and money
Worse than a minature putt course made by the blind. Misleading website. Horrible greens. Bad course layout and hard to find. Go hit rocks with a stick in the backyard and you'll be better off
Really Short
This was a really short wide open executive course with little elevation and limited features. Average hole length is under a hundred yards and not much of a challenge, but it is well maintained. This would be a great course for a younger golfer or a new beginner. Otherwise I feel that there are other courses in the area that are a better value.
Short course, fun when you have a variety of golf abilities in your group, but that generally makes the pace of play quite slow.
Course was in good shape, just enough challenges to work most of the clubs in your bag.
For an executive course it's challenging. Nicely kept up.
No players assistants to keep slow players moving along. We got stuck behind some beginners otherwise we would have finished in 3 hrs instead of 4.5.
Play somewhere else
this course caters to the residents and views the golfnow customers as second rate. I left the course after 4 holes, 3 of which were par 3- all this took at least 1 hour 20 min- several groups backed up at the tee. No notification on Golfnow about a tournament
Great Executive for a Great Price
This is a great executive course for a great price. The staff is friendly and course is nice and long for an executive. You can still use the driver on a few holes.
Nice short game practice course
Played here four times now and I'll be back. It's a great value.
Greens have fully recovered since aeration last month.
They do allow carts but course is very short with some hills so walking it is very pleasant.
There are power lines on four holes. I just ignore them and I have yet to hit one.
Good Par 3 course. Definitely need skills on the short game.
Nice PAr 3. Will come back. Morning tee times chilly until about 10am.
