Great way to spend Mother's day
The staff was extremely pleasant , the weather was perfect & the course was in great shape. Only downside was a couple of the fairways had major work being done but we warned ahead of playing so no big deal there. Will be returning in the near future.

very nice course, just 3 holes under construction so we lose a lot of fun, hopefully they can finish the construction in next couple month.
Amazing experience. Greens were perfect! Views are outstanding. Challenging but VERY playable. ?Used every club in my bag. Highly recommend to others.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and rate us 5-stars. Visit again soon!

Cancellation policy is too strict
My wife and I get ill on the day (Mar 12th). Our TEE time was 13:10 PM. In the morning, I tried to cancel the booking, but failed. I made a phone call several times dire tly to the golf proshop, but failed to talk to the sraff working there.
We are very much disappointed to see that you charged full money.
Greetings,
We apologize for this experience as booking tee times through Golf Now has a stricter cancellation policy than booking directly with us. Additionally, booking directly with us allows for more flexibility and typically a better rate. We understand if you choose not to visit us again, but we do invite you to return at a heavily discounted rate. Simply connect with me, Jackie, if this is something you're interested in. Once again, we apologize for this experience and hope you and your wife are feeling better.

Twilight’s the value tee time
Happened to find a hot deal tee time just an hour before. The course conditions were great and the staff was also super nice. Once I get to know the course layout, it’ll be very interesting course to play as it is not long but there were a lot of hidden obstacles.
Underwhelming
Ridiculously overpriced for an unmemorable course. Anything good about the course has to be tempered with the fact that it’s simply too expensive for what you get.
Ranger came by 2 or 3 times to tell us we were half a hole behind even though nobody came close to being behind us. 4:20 right on pace on the card.
One ocean hole. Guess that’s what you’re paying for. Won’t be back, too many better courses around for less than $200.
Staff was nice though, and was put with a good group of people.
Worth it !
From staff to course was impressed by all ! Great and difficult greens! Not very long , but the greens are the teeth of the course! Great views of the ocean and the vibe of Dana Point was spectacular. Hope this helps!
Thank you so much for taking the time to rate and review your visit with us. We hope you have a chance to visit us again soon!

Bare Dirt & Divots Everywhere
The course is in terrible condition. We were told it was because they did not overseed this year?? Love this course, but right now huge bare dirt spots and literally hundreds of divots near the greens. I recommend you go elsewhere until conditions improve.
Thank you so rating us 5-stars!

We appreciate you rating us 5-stars! Though it seems you rated us twice (see reviews). We obviously like this one more than the 4-star review ;)
We hope you can visit us again & enjoy a 5-star experience!

A forgiving beauty
We played on a chilly overcast day but really didn't notice it as the greens were well kept and fairways layer out nicely before you. I'll bet on a usual SoCal type day it would have been awesome playing along the pacific.
The only knick would be that we got behind a scramble tournament which reminded us that it was very chilly (stood around a bit). But still a great course and I will definitely play again...soon!
Glad you were able to join us for a round! We hope you can return next spring/summer to catch us on a beautiful warm coastal day!
Thanks again,
Eric Lohman, PGA GM
Thank you, Bob for taking the time to rate your experience. We will be completing the project within the next month so you'll have to come back and see the finished project!
