Great Tract

We were happy to be able to play this course. It’s a great 18 hole tract in great condition. Clean carts and facilities. Greens were exceptionally undulating which is to be expected for a mountain course. The only negatives - the members playing the course were less than friendly and the pace of play after the first 6 holes was s-l-o-w with several golfers in groups in front of us taking 2 shots per drive.

Look Elsewhere - Horrible Condition

Normally, I try to find the positive in everything. After all, a bad day at the course is better than a good day at the office. But...this course is not in playable condition. We chose this course based on the reviews we read and those reviews were not correct.
I’ll start with the positives. The course is a great and very challenging layout. Water comes into play on many holes and shot management is really needed. The pro shop staff, the starters/rangers, and the bartender who fixed our lunchtime turn food (a foot long hotdog and 2 waters) were very friendly and sincere. After a slow start (50 minutes for 3 holes) we did move along and finished all 18 in 4 hours and 15 minutes (thank you rangers).
The only negative was the condition of the course. It’s heartbreaking. They have a beautiful course and the owners have obviously bled it dry. Most of the fairways had more weeds than grass. The bunkers are collapsing (or have collapsed) and some are just mud pits. Many of the bunkers have grass and weeds growing throughout them. Many of the tee box areas were just sand or weeds. Several of the greens had gouges in them. It was sad. I asked the bartender if maybe the course was recently sold or had a new management company and was told no - the same family had owned it for awhile.
For golfers, skip this course. The condition isn’t worth even a practice round. And for the owners, shame on you for letting a beautiful layout get into this condition. And for goodness sakes, go out there and empty your trash cans. Ugh!!!
FYI - I do have photos of the mess but they wouldn’t upload.

Really Liked The Course BUT The Staff and The Pace Of Play Really Ruined It For Me.

I have always wanted to play at Mission Inn Resort and I jumped at the chance to try it out. Check-in was okay. The pro shop staff seemed to be on auto-pilot and not really welcoming or outgoing. We hit some balls and then headed for the 1st tee. There was no starter and right from the start, we could see that it looked a little "bunched up". Little did we know that the game was going to go from a little slow to totally unacceptable. The bottom line is this. My 18 hole round was close to 5 1/2 hours. On a par 5 on the back, there were 6 groups; one on the green, one in the middle, one teeing off, and three groups waiting. It is NO fun to hit the ball and wait 10+ minutes to hit it again. People were hitting into the groups in front of them from frustration. What really upset me was the attitude of the staff. They shrugged it off and stated there was nothing they could do. One even walked away from me. All the staff had to do was send someone out to apologize and maybe offer a small token: a golf ball...a discount off another round...even just a sincere apology. UGH! I wouldn't waste my time returning.

We apologize for your negative experience. We strive for a 4 1/2 pace, however this is not always achievable with some more social golf outings. We hope you return.
