Awesome

Enjoyed everything about the course. Greens were a little slow but that’s to be expected at this time of year. Excellent staff, great GolfNow rate and we were joined by 2 fellow Canuks.

Fun

1st visit and glad we did. Paired up with a local golfer and played in 4h exactly.

Quirky track, in and out of houses but no hole the same. Keep it straight and you will be fine.

Ruined by other golfers

We play D.D everytime we come to the valley and this was the 1st time we have been left disappointed.

Staff good
Golfers in front terrible, even said we hit into them and that we should play through if we’re going to hurt them! Still shocked at the total scenario and they then proceeded to play very very very slow.

Course wasn’t pristine and the greens a little rough but we still like the course and will continue to play it.

Pretty good

Coming from Canada, we like a friendly course in good shape. Even in the height of summer, course was good.

The welcome at bag drop was 'Meh'
Driving range was fine
Welcome in the pro shop was 'Meh'
Putting green speed was slow
Course is great and challenging
Carts are great
Pace of play was good
Layout is good
After the rnd, service was Terrible

Last game of our Canadian winter getaway and we needed to kill a few hours. We decided to pick here due to a few of the group only being new to golf.

The course is close to the airport and easy to find. We spent $50 +/- and that included lunch (Which was actually quite good).

This is a positive review, value for money and some really decent holes. Not manicured in anyway.

Bring Balls

1st time playing this course and it won't be the last. Very nice to the eye, well taken care off and not easy.

Upon arriving, check in was easy and the starter found us on the range to get us going. There were lots of people playing and we waited on EVERY shot.

There is lots of water (Bring lots of balls) that you don't see to the naked eye, some great long drives that caught water but golf isn't supposed to be easy!!

Greens were a little slow, little pot marked but over all....A+

Real good value

1st rnd of the year after a Canadian winter and we decided to choose San Marcos after some good reviews.

We had a great welcome, staff were friendly and we had a great lunch before teeing off. 'Driving Range' is with whiffle golf balls.....we were not that impressed without a full warm up.

Pace of play was slow, the course was mainly seniors and they were enjoying their afternoon. The course offers some really nicely shaped holes and they make you think. Most of the greens had the same pace and they were well guarded with bunkers.

1st time

Played my 1st rnd of the year and decided to play on a Sunday in hot weather!

Played South/North via GolfNow and was worth the $$$$

Check In is easy, carts are decent and practice range is fine.

Short course at just over 6000 yards (Blue) but lots of dog legs and elevation changes, not an easy track.

Greens are in good state, slower that I was expecting but true. Fairways are good and tee boxes fine.

Mostly senior folk playing, slow round, the back was as a single, could have let me play through but etiquette not evident.
