Enagic Golf Club at Eastlake

Played East Lake again last Sunday. The course is a mix of easier and more challenging holes. Greens were in pretty good shape, fairways could stand some improvements. Pace of play on Sunday was really slow. It took our Threesome five hours to play 18 and no break whatsoever between nines.

Nice course layout & great staff interactions. Pace of play was abysmal on a Saturday. 5 hours to play 15 holes, then had to pull out to make to other commitments. Played here once before & enjoyed. Not sure why we piled up on every hole.

This course always has fantastic greens, a challenging layout and friendly staff. The only issue is the pace of play. Did not see one Marshall put the home day, had a group in front of us completely hammered by hole 4. Made for a 6 hour round.

The two groups in front of us played extremely slow. The Marshall came by several times, and we even told him about the slow play, but he never talk to the two groups. Very disappointing, especially since he watched them playing slow and didn’t address it.

Very unhappy with the new owner and the attitude he conveys to players. The old Eastlake was a friendly course with nice staff. The new attitude that is conveyed to the public is less than friendly. I made a reservation thru golfnow for a 12:00 tine. I arrived early to hit some range balls and found the course empty. The starter informed me we could start early if we wanted. However after checking with the proshop we were told that because we booked our round thru golfnow we would have to wait until noon to tee off. The starter was apologetic and told me it came from the proshop.

Played Enagic yesterday on Good Friday (3/29/2024).

Range: Balls are decent. Hitting surface is a continuous piece of artificial turf.

Practice Area: There are two putting greens, one large circle and the other a longer rectangular shape (closed). The chipping area is relatively small, a bunker and small green.

Course: For the most part, the entire course was in good shape. Greens were firm and consistent. It would be helpful if golfers repaired their own divots. There are some bare spots around the course that should be marked ground under repair. I find the course to be a challenging setup depending on what tee box you choose to play from.

Staff: Always nice, friendly, and willing to assist.

Pace of Play: Was atrocious?!?! Started at 11:45 and finished five & a half hours later. Waited on every single hole. The other twosome left after finishing the Par 5 14th hole. They didn’t expect to be this slow and had dinner plans. Not sure why, but Enagic also roped off a section of the landing area on EVERY hole requiring golfers to walk to their balls and/or drive their carts around. Makes sense to protect the course from damage when it’s wet or raining, but the course was dry and no rain forecasted till Saturday (roped areas have been there all week). In closing, you can only blame some of the slowness due to poor golfers, but this was obviously a case of overbooking. Nothing ruins a good round worst than slow play.

We didn't finish to slow 4 hrs 13 holes over book 2 groups wait on every tee box

The greens were a little bit sandy other that great course

the course looks beautiful. The fairway and greens are very well kept and maintained. hey do enforce the collar shirt rule, EVEN on the range.
The marshal is constantly rushing you, which makes it less enjoyable. The fairways are nice, but narrow. If you hit your ball out of the fairway, good luck finding it. The grass is too tall and we lost balls that were hit near the fairway. I think this attributes to some slow play. People waste a lot of time looking for a ball that should be easy to find. There are some holes that have a wide field of play. The carts are nice. They have GPS and course information on them, and the ability to Bluetooth. However, we have found that the break lock does not work on most of the carts, so park the cart with tires tuned to the curb. You can find similar courses, for a cheaper cost.

Not a bad course green were good but the fairways could have been in better shape.

Great bangs for your buck !
The course is in great condition if you want to play in San Diego area this is the time with all the rain they have everything is green the fairway are well kept and the greens are rolling well and they do taking care of it well manicured fairway as well
Friendly staffs I get to meet the general manager of the course he even out there with the shovel in his hand working away ( Neil Finch ) that show me that this course is well organized and well run ( like a shepherd taking care of his sheep
Thank you guys we appreciate you !

Course was in good condition and rough was up with recent rain. Greens were consistent and well maintained. $99 is a bit steep for price, ideally $70 would be a better price point. Some areas of fairways are roped off but if smart enough you can park it close enough for a short walk.

My only complaint is the amount of roped off areas.

The courses is in good condition, except for the greens the greens are pretty beat up. For $100 or more I feel like the green should be in better condition but the course is ok and it’s so so for the money they are asking to play this place
