The Ocean North at Pelican Hill Golf Club

Most I ever paid for a round, forecaddie included. It was worth it and lived up to expectation. Truly enjoyed the views and layout. Not for beginners. Caddie helped read greens but also told you where to put your drive. One disappointment was hitting off mats to warm up. For full price we should have been able to use grass range.

The Pelican is always my favorite course in the area. The greens are in final stage of recovery from punched - they are a bit slower than normal. The pace is also a little slower - nearly a 5 hour round. However, great weather and playing partners made up a fun round.

This is a weird one because I love the course but experience a rude marshal.
I went out as a single and was paired up with another guy and two ladies. They struggled a bit, but we’re not particularly slow. Around the ninth hole, the marshal Came by and his loud gas powered cart and told us to pick it up. Fine. We had just waited on the previous hole. He proceeded to follow us for the next four holes telling us we were going to slow after each shot.. It was very disturbing. Finally on the 15th hole, he made us skip a hole. We got to the 16th hole and the Group ahead had just teed off. So now we were waiting. I was five over to that and wanted to submit my score. I called the pro shop and no one did anything. Very unfortunate!

I have played both south and north now.
I wasn’t that personally impressed by south course as visually it’s a 3 star compared to the north is outstanding every hole with the views. And that’s why everyone comes here. Otherwise it’s a solid course at any other facility. I always pay hot deal. If I payed premium price $450 or so , I would have been disappointed on south. But not north it’s well worth it. Again layout conditions views are all amazing. Worth a high price . My home course is Torrey Pines and I was impressed by the north

The pace of play was terrible. Our round was over 5 hours due to a slow group in front of us that backed up all remaining groups on the course. We only saw a players assistant on the third hole and the group in front had a forecaddy who did not move the group along. We finally had to say something to the group after the 9th hole. They picked the pace up for two holes then got behind by a hole and a half. Inexcusable for a course charging a $400 fee. We were unable to finish our round. It was unfortunate as the course layout is excellent. The course also shut down very early, which precluded us from enjoying the facilities. I would not recommend the course.

Caught a 3:15 tee time giving us enough time for 11 holes before it got dark. Pace of play was a little slow but the course is absolutely amazing, also caught a bonus sunset.

Hard to beat the views here. Clearly you are paying a premium, but conditions were what you would expect, as was pace of play (cart path only due to previous rain, but moved pretty well - this has been an issue in the past). If you are ok spending the money, well worth it.

Course is in good overall conditions BUT the greens were no fun … please give them some water… unbelievable fast, putting was nearly not possible

But it is a great venue, amazing views, loved to play there

Anyone level of golfer will enjoy this golf experience. Lower handicap players will be drooling to comeback again!

Liked this course, good layout and in great shape.
