What Happened to E Ranch ...

Grew up in Encinitas - E Ranch was always my local track playing it over 100 times. Before Covid , Easy Ranch was an enjoyable experience. Great staff and always a pleasure playing and supporting a local course.

Absolute horrendous experience after Covid. What used to be a course based off service and values has quickly turned into a money hungry business attempting to grab extra dollars anyway they can.

This business should be about taking care of its customers. When you take care of the customers , I will go out of my way to play your course. Friends and family in town? I'll take them to E Ranch. Taking care of customers will allways increase revenue.

The staff is aggressive and rude. They will up-sell everything they can to you. I don't know if its JC Course or Management at E Ranch, but the entire process is miserable.

It puts a bad name for Encinitas and a worse name for those who live here. Shame on this track for somewhere where i will no longer take my friends and go out of my way not to play. Sad to see honestly.

They will overbook, charge you extra for a cart, balls, and ask you to sign up 5 times for their JC Program. The have risen the rates consecutive times. The pace of play will be slow, and the worst part is - Nobody cares.

Love the track , sad to see it downward spiral from management taking a great thing and putting a bad name to it.

Wow- harsh review mid 2020 in midst of a pandemic killing people and closing businesses. Seems to be the time when one would cut the golf course some slack. Tough to get kids to show up for work let alone have operations humming along perfectly.
See how they do AFTER the pandemic, when things are more normal.

Don’t waste your time

Played 100 rounds in 2019 , this was our first for 2020 and what a terrible experience it was. Played 1/11/2020

Huge Delay. Our tee time was at 10:19 and we didn’t tee off until 11:05. Pace was horrendous Marshal and the starter we’re about as useful as non-alcoholic beer.

Don’t waste your time here. Operations and management is terrible. They are beyond unorganized in every way. Go play admiral baker -trust me.

Couldn't agree more. What a dump. Course was in poor shape. Bunkers were the worst I've ever played. Not sure if it was sand or dirt! Practice range is deplorable. If I didn't have to go back next month for a 2-day tournament I'd make the last round I played on the Willow Glen course MY LAST ROUND EVER at this poorly named "Golf Resort".
