The golf course was just average. Don't wander into the ruff as there are rattle snakes.
The golf carts are in filthy horrible shape. Even with Covid the golf carts have not been washed in months.

Fun course

Pace of play was pretty good even playing as a threesome with a 5some ahead of us. We played in under 4 hours. A couple of hole required the ability to move ball left to right, or right to left to end up with good second shot. It was really fun even for a hacker like me.

Great Hidden course

My Brother and I were looking to play the old Fallbrook Country Club course ,which we played with our Dad when we were young, but found out it was turned into a vineyard! The Golf Club of California is in the same general area and is now our replacement for that lost hidden gem. The course is in really good shape, challenging for all levels and the price is lower than most coastal golf courses. Of course because of CoVid the amenities are limited but they did have cart service and we had some lunch at the indoor restaurant. I would give it 4.5 stars but that wasn't on the list.

Looking better

Last played GCoC a few years back during a drought and only can remember the green spray painted fairways. Thankfully that is behind as the course is looking good. More importantly, and a small detail, is that the sand in the bunkers is fresh. Can't say that of some other courses in this category. Funniest thing is that they say "no chipping on greens" yet there is a bunker in the middle of the 7th green....how are you supposed to get over that without 3 putting? Only thing that would be nice is if they'd put some water stations out on the course.

Poor choice

I want my money back. It was so backed up from the get go. Apparently there was a tournament right before. They should have refunded us. We paid 178 dollars for 9 holes at 4 hours. Never again
