Shorecliffs Golf Club

Have played here many times prior to renovation starting.
Long way to go so definitely a challenge to get around .
It should be a fun course when done.
Some customers got nice carts but ours was all torn up and dirty.

When I first started playing golf 25 or more years ago I played a lot at Shrorecliffs. It was always easy to get a tee time and the price was right. As the years went by I moved on to other courses and kind of forgot about Shorecliffs. The club I currently belong to was closed yesterday so I searched around and got a tee time . I'm very happy I decided to look into Shorecliffs again! They are in the closing phase of a major renovation of not only the course but the facilities available. The condition of the course is as good as many of the higher priced courses in the area and it will just get better as the plantings and grass grow and mature. I intend to play here more often in the future and look forward to the new clubhouse and the completion of the renewal of the grounds.

The layout here is funky now but will work when construction is completed.

It's been about 2 years since I visited this goat track. Since then, they've torn down the range and sold the land to build senior housing and have used the money to invest in the course. Color me impressed with all the improvement they've done. The fairways have nice coverage, most of the greens were in excellent condition. The tee boxes need the most work. The layout is a little funky and some holes are way harder than they should be. Fairways are very narrow and this course favors accuracy over distance. Lots of landscaping has been done to make it prettier than it was. Last time I played here I said "never again!"...This time I said "can't wait to do it again!"

Be prepared that this isn't the old Shorecliffs. The course is under a major upgrade so your GPS watch may not sync with the righty hole. They do have new carts finally. The staff are new and are eager to help. They mean it when they say you will be taken off the course if you bring in alcohol. They Marshall's are helpful with course navigation and pace of play. Take plenty of balls and be prepared to lose them. We played there twice in the past two weeks so this is my observation over those two times-just sayin..

It's amazing they've been working on this course for years now doesn't seem like they're making any progress

We always love Shorecliffs Golf course. Perfect weather close to the beach with some awesome views! There's a bit of construction going on now but it's a great course at a very affordable price.

Course is getting better and better with improvements on various holes.

I am the type of player that cannot walk up to course and play without practicing first. it just does not work for me. driving range putting green etc. I think the future looks good except for that ugly buliding right in front of you, and only a couple of nets to practice? I have been play this course since 1964 when I was a junior member. I wish you well.

Used to play this course all the time. New ownership has made this place unbearable. Be prepared to have your bags searched and your group harassed by the marshals and nosey cart girl. Honestly felt like we were golfing at a prison! Oh and the course is an absolute dog track, same construction going on since 2016!

I'll come back after all the construction is finished .

Used to be a fun place to golf. My high school group and I like to play there 3-4 times a year. This morning (Sat 6/11) after checking in and paying an employee asked if we had any outside alcohol in our coolers. We said no. They asked to inspect our coolers. Our friends ahead of us said ok and they tried to confiscate their five beers. They agreed to take their alcohol back to the car. They asked to inspect my cooler and I politely said no.

At the second tee box a guy with a walkie -talkie came up on us and confronted us. He said we was going to have security take us off the course. He said he wasn't going to tolerate golfers mistreating his employees. I told him (he said he was the General Manager) that I was very polite when I didn't give permission to search my cooler.

He took a step toward me and took his sunglasses off (oh no!) and said he wasn't going to allow people to break the rules of the golf course and being in outside alcohol. I explained that I bought five shots of Fireball last time for $40 and was drinking those and could show him the receipt on my phone. After acting like a tough guy we parted ways.

There are 30 other public golf courses in Orange County. Don't play Shorecliffs. You won't be treated with the respect you

The course is undergoing major renovations that In time will result in a fun, interesting track. For now it’s wonky, with some holes closed and others halved into two. Machinery noise is seemingly everywhere on the course. Still, it is a good value considering the outrageous cost of green fees elsewhere. And the staff is as usual really friendly.
