Easy muni course.. firm greens

I like the layout though it's fairly short 6000 yards from the white, 6500 from the blues. The greens are very firm. Many of my high wedge shots bounced off the green and didn't leave much of a repairable divet. Should of played a higher spin ball. Sand was in good shape.

We played behind a twosome that was very slow on the front 9. We had 2 beginners in our group ( good course for beginners by the way), the group in front of us picked up the pace and made us look like we were playing slow. The ambassadors were on us telling us to speed up even though we finished at 4 hours 28 minutes. Slightly annoying but the experience was fine for the price. Greens could be better but what do you expect from a mini course.

Tee boxes need work

Nice greens, good layout. My only complaint is the tee boxes. Grass was pretty long and the boxes are crowned. The greens were fast but beat up. Apparently no one owned divot tools there the day I played.

For 55$ I'd hope for a little better conditions. For sure I wouldn't pay the advertised weekend rate to play that course. Good customer service there for sure.

Nice greens, good value

Moderately difficult course. Greens were in good shape and challenging. Lots of undulations on this course. Didn't eat or drink there so no comment on that part.

Great value. Greens were great

Although hot this time of year, our group enjoyed the course. Some of the bunkers were dirt instead of sand, but the greens were in great shape. Some of the fairways were a little dry but expected at this time of year.

Challenging course

Great golf course! Challenging to a mid handicapper. If you shoot over 100's I don't recommend playing here. Greens were nice and fast, fairways were green and tee boxes were nice. Barring the east county heat, the course was fun to play. Sand traps were slightly in need of service, bunkers near the greens were both fluffy and hard it would be nice if they were consistent.

Ivanhoe- Decent Greens but a bit expensive for what you get

Course was suprisingly green for summertime, Tee boxes needed mowed and were a bit longer than most courses, Greens were pretty nice rolling but not fast ( I would guess 11-12 on the stimp meter) . Lots of leaves on the ground made it difficult to find balls in the rough close to the fairways. Sand looked very firm (wasn't in it thankfully). Course played fast and wasn't overly crowded, if we didn't stop to get hotdogs and chips it would of been 3.5 hours. Carts worked just fine. No GPS in them though.

Nice greens! Challenging course

The course was in great shape. All the bunkers had soft fluffy sand except a few that were a little wet, but not muddy by any means. The fairways looked good, but not perfect. The practice facilities there are top notch, one of the better practice areas I think. The carts were adequate, but GPS would of been nice. The course is not well marked. The flags also were not always apparent to what part of the green they were on.

Great course

What a great course this was. We played when it was aeriated about 2 weeks prior, but the greens played true even though a little slow. The course looked great for being in the desert, nothing was burned up and the ground was soft. The course is definetely not a beginner course. Course was hilly, no many flat spots on the ground. I will say this, it was rather expensive. We got the rate at 50% off, and still the little things like a soda and some beef jerky was about 12$. The service was definetely top notch and the facilities were great. I would play more often if it was a little more inexpensive. The pace was very slow but we were never rushed. So if you are looking for a 4 hour round this is not the place.
