One of the few courses in the area where the pictures on golf now are worse than the actual conditions at the course. Awesome 9 hole with water and elevation change. Slight knock was that we paid for a round plus a bucket of balls but the range was closed due to rain this past weekend. We were able to get out to start a round a bit earlier which was nice. Overall, a great time.

Due to the inclement weather the golf course would not allow for carts. However, we had already bought a pre-paid time that included a cart on Golf Now. The argument here is less with Santa Anita but more with golfnow, as there seems to be no mechanism to receive credit back for a service which, rightly so, the golf course could not render with the massive downpour.

Three of us met up with a friend who lives nearby to play a round here yesterday. We booked a deal through under par and, by the time it was all said and done, got 36 holes of golf in.

I must be honest and day I was a bit nervous as to what the conditions of the course were. There were a lot of negative reviews here and many of them in my opinion are unjustified. It's one thing to complain about not having flush fairways in a tropical climate, but to complain about dry fairways and spots of dirt in the foothills of North SD county in the middle of summer is uncalled for. There's a "mud rule" for a reason, and once you were within 50 yards of the green the conditions were great. The photo above is what a typical fairway looks like and, as a municipal golfer who 's approach shots range from respectable to complete shanks, I have no complaints.

Also, big shout out to the staff here who were absolutely awesome. 2 gallons of water, a couple Dr. Peppers, and 9 lost golf balls later, it was a great time.

Made it down to play a round with a friend who lives nearby the course. Great deal with Under Par and great conditions from 50 yards and in on every hole. There were definitely parts of the fairway that have seen better days, but nothing a quick "mud rule" can't fix. For the price this place is solid and we had lots of fun. If you want to nitpick and complain about why the fairways aren't flush in the middle of the summer in North SD county then that's on you.

Also, great staff, great service, and if we ever come back down we will be back.
