Surprisingly Good

Have played Dad Miller many times and it's usually as you'd expect for an old municipal course. But this was the first time in a long time that I can remember the course being in this good of shape. The greens are some of the best in the OC. Slightly slow and fluffy, but receptive and rolls true. Fairways have nice coverage and tee boxes in good condition. 15th hole is being modified so a little bit of change there, but overall great conditions at the Dad right now.

Fun course to play but pace was awful. Need to have a starter/marshall to help regulate course.

Like many other reviews the close fairways cause some balls onto the next fairway but we can’t complain as we did some ourselves! Great location and staff and nicely kept.

Decent course

Great course. Very forgiving cause the fairways are all close to each other.
Green were okay. Pace was very slow. (Players get a chance to play their ball from another fairway which delays the game cause they have to wait for other to clear as well - and this causes slower pace of play) could be solved spacing out tee times more wide.

Good course but they never have carts

Had an afternoon tee time booked, but when we get there the staff says they don't have carts available and most likely will not have carts available to us until after the front 9. Then, they gave us 1 cart right before we tee'd off and the cart died on hole 6 so we had to walk the rest of the way. The course conditions are pretty solid for the price, but the cart issues overshadow this. Pace of play is not bad, but you may get stuck behind the occasional slow 4some. Don't think I'll be back as it sounds like the cart issue is a regular thing and they still haven't figured out a fix for it. With our tee time, we should have been able to finish 18, but we only finished 16 holes since we had to walk.

Good expierence

Had some issues with carts, but they try to accommodate us as much as they could. after two changes We finally got a cart that lasted the rest of the round. They have been waiting on a fleet of cars to show up and doing the best they possibly can with what they have.

Good Course, but needs more karts.

The course was beautiful and the condition of the grass and overall course was great. However, I had to stop and go back to get my kart replaced because it was out of battery. On top of that, we had to wait 30 minutes after our tee time because they were charging the karts. We could finish playing and I gave up after going back to get my kart replaced. Overall, good course, but dont go past 1 pm unless you plan on walking it.
