Great experience.

Played two days in a row and the course was in great shape. Fairways and greens well maintained. Course is tough, especially reading the greens, but it’s fair and the staff is great. CC type experience.

Will be back whenever I’m in San Diego.

Great course

One of the best course in San Diego area. It was very hot day and marshals were going around with cold water and cold towels for the golfers, thank you. The course is in perfect shape and beautiful scenery. Only downside was pro shop charging $5.00 bag fee per golfer, I don’t remember paying the bag fee before.

Not CASH friendly.

I guess they can’t trust their staff to either be able to count money or not steal it. Not a fan of credit card only establishments.

Good golf experience

Had an issue with my booking online and the staff was most helpful and friendly. Customer service was great
Course is difficult but still fun. Fairways and greens were both in real good shape. I would recommend it
