Industry Hills Golf Club at Pacific Palms Resort - Eisenhower Course

Our T Time was at 1:30pm. We figured finishing before sundown would've been fine. Not quite. Pace of play on a Sunday afternoon is VERY SLOW. By the time we hit the turn, we were 30mins behind pace. In addition, they start watering their tee boxes at 4pm. Bring a pancho or expect to get wet. When you ask the club about turning the water off or setting it for a different schedule, they advise they have no control over when its watered. Naturally, this extended the pace of play.

Course was very nice! Greens were consistent. Only negative thing was the bunkers had lots of rocks and some big ones at that. But would 100% recommend and I would play again.

The course is quite challenging and in good shape. It was too hot to be out on the course for just under 5 hours. We informed the starter at the turn that the group in front of us was playing very slow. We then called a clubhouse with the same complaint. The marshall finally showed up on the 15th hole.

It was an early morning weekday round, so the pace of play was as expected - no issues. I think we might have waited a combined 5 minutes on 2 different greens, so nothing to complain about.

The course was in great shape. The greens were a bit challenging and nicely kept. This was my second time on Ike and the layout is great. It's a challenging course where you need to hit it pretty straight and, luckily, I was in the fairway on most holes. It was my wife's first time there and she enjoyed it also.

Nice round. We'll be back for sure.

Started at 10:10 on a Thursday morning, took 4.5 hours, so mediocre pace. Most staff were friendly. But one guy read me the riot act for parking on the barren dirt next to the cart path, instead of on the cart path itself, at a high-traffic intersection that maintenance workers were using in all directions. Relax, dude, I'm just trying to help get out of people's way.

The biggest mystery with this course is why they won't shell out a few hundred bucks for color-coded flags -- you know, red for front, white for middle, blue for back, like almost every other course in the U.S. A lot of shots are semi-blind to the green, so it sure would be nice to know roughly where the pin is. I'm not all that accurate, but even a mid-handicapper like me cares whether he's trying to hit it 140 or 160. Why make the distances a secret? It makes no sense. That's why I'm dinging a star for "course conditions."

The layout and maintenance are very good, and it's a tough but fair test. I just wish they'd put in a little more effort into making the experience enjoyable.
