The greens are almost normal. Much much better than a few weeks sgo.
It was so quiet & the green fee was so reasonable. Enjoyed very much.

Improving

The course is in a lot better condition. The greens were all open & a lot better.
The fairway was green & in a better condition.
Was happy to play in a fast & quiet course, esp. for the money.

Improved

The greens got much much better than about a couple months ago. The fairway got better too. It was obvious they were working on the greens repair.

Too bad greens.

I haven't played this course for about a year, so I could compare from last year to this date. The fairway is greener, more grasses, was very quiet. But more than half of the greens are awful. I guess it's fungus.
What we kept wondering was how come they are repairing the cartpath not the greens. The first priority
is to upturn the greens and put fresh healthy greens.
I feel sorry for the new owner.

Bad design of the course

I enjoyed the views (up and down) and had fun.
But felt so bad about riding the cart for so long.
From one hole to the next, or from the fairway to the green, you have to ride miles.
Every body in our group commented that it's such a bad bad design. Such a waste of energy (cart)!!!!

Dear junechun,

I apologize for the seemingly extra long cart ride. Our course was designed around environmentally protected areas - there are several protected critters surrounding the course and it had to be designed around their home. We appreciate the fact that you enjoyed the views and hope you decide to come back! Thanks for the 4 stars!

Best regards,

Nice surroundings

The mountains and course was beautiful, except a couple of holes were very noisy by the traffic on highway 15.

Nature surroundings beautiful

Every time I go there, I am surprised at the trees, mountains, wilderness around the course.
I would like to go there just to get away except in the summer it's too hot.,

cool weather

With ocean breeze the course was a lot cooler than
the inland courses. The course lay out is interesting,
several narrow fairways with cliffs and bushes.
Very good for the price.

Good enough for executive course.

The front nine was really bad, a lot of bare spots, but the
back 9 was a lot nicer, pretty. If it's a little close, I would go there every Sat, when I practice on executive course.

I was disappointed.

Years ago, I remember the course being so pretty.
But now the front nine has a lot of bare spots (dirt), but back
9 was kept a lot better, and nice. It's a beautiful course.

Lots of trees and clear water creeks running.

The management is great. If it's slow, they let you tee off
even if your tee time is yet another 30 min.

Beautiful scenery

If you like mountain views, this is the course, so serene.
If it's a little closer from my place, I would like to go there
every week. The staffs were nice too. Very good for the money.

No incentive for manager to welcome more players

My husband stopped playing because of his back problem, but would like to come out with me and walk. He and I take turn to walk, so we walk about 9 hole each. And the manager asked me to pay $10.00 for my husband accompanying me. I told him that we could have another
rider in our cart because only one of me and my husband ride taking turn. He said the spectators have to pay $10.- no matter what. No more Oceanside course for me.
