The Vineyard at Escondido

Like I said, best tee boxes ever. Every single one was perfect. They are level, cut to the appropriate height and feel fantastic under your feet. The fairways where in great shape. Some of the greens had a lot of ball marks but not all. The ones that didn’t have many divots where in awesome condition. They rolled true and pin placements where good. This course can either reward you for great shots or punish you for bad shots. If you landed on the middle of the fairway you always had a level shot with perfect length grass. If you land off or near the edges of the fairway the ball will be either above or below your feet. Nice long holes, good rate of play at 7:45 am tee off. I would have to say this is one of my favorite courses for the money. It’s true my hard to beat the value on this course when you use online booking apps. I wish it wasn’t 50 minutes away. I would play this course 2 times a week if it was my local course. Good job to the staff at the vineyard, also the breakfast burrito I had was awesome. I’m very pleased and look forward to returning.

Greens were being plugged and sanded. This was not listed on Golf Now or on main website (only if you tried booking on their site). The course is very pretty and challenging, while not being overly long. Big pet peeve (and one that slowed play) - NO YARDAGE MARKERS ANYWHERE!!!! You'd expect cart yardage displays at a nice course like this - Nope. Markers on sprinklers or boxes - Nope. 100, 150, 200 markers - if there were any, not apparent. You just expect more from a nice course.
Would recommend other courses before this (maybe different if greens had been in better shape)

Booked via GolfNow app.
Online rate was $48. Did not mention that greens had been punched & sanded.
However, upon arrival, pro shop staff gave us all a reduced rate ($36) They were very friendly and it was a good jester due to the conditions of the greens.
Pace of play was ok... 18 holes in 4 hours.
Also included a 15% discount in restaurant after our round
What a deal !!! We got the hotdog, chips & beer special.

Good course. Difficult front nine, a lot of water to deal with. But as I warmed up, I enjoyed the challenge. The back nine was challenging as well but a little easier.

Greens are hard to read but the course is excellent! Nice driving range too!

The greens were excellent. Fairways and boxes were spotty, will think twice before going again.

Under 4hr round...course in good shape, other than a few bunkers.

It’s about a 30 ish minute drive from me so I don’t make it out that often, but when I do it usually does not disappoint. This was my first time out in moooonths and my first time back in about a year or so. Everyone was friendly, tried getting out an hour early but there was no space and I could see why. The greens were in awesome shape, rolling nicely. Everything else seemed to be okay except the bunkers. I was able to snap a deal time so I was really happy about the cost with a cart. I was thinking it would be a 4.5-5hr round but we ended up finishing at exactly 3hrs and 45 minutes. I usually play solo, and seem to run into other solo players of all ages and experience. Always a pleasant time at the vineyard.

I used to play this course often but have not been there in a couple of years It is a good layout but needs help the fairway's are just ok the bunkers need some sand the greens wont hold anything.
But they have installed Trackman or something similar not sure which one cause the only open mats did not have them installed.
If you can get out there for 50-60 I guess it;s not so bad but not worth anything more
