Just OK

Haven’t played here in a few years but recalled decent value based on course layout, rates, etc. Disappointed this time around to say the least. Course layout is still great but course conditions far from desired based on a Troon managed course. Greens inconsistent, fairways with a lot of hard pan… definitely not worth the current rates. Hopefully conditions will return with a little more time and tlc.

What happened?

You know you're in trouble after you pay your $130 and the starter begins to tell you about all of the closed Fairways. I used to play this course many years ago when it was in good condition. Not sure what has happened, greens were horrible, t boxes all but two were a mess. Can't even talk about what they are calling Fairways. Great course if they charge $65. Since you want to charge triple digits I'll inform everyone I know your course is trash.

Should’ve told me when I booked that you were over seeding and punching the greens

Paid a lot of money for a golf course in horrible playing condition

Overpriced for the conditions

Not cheap. Normally the course is around $180 on the weekends which is too expensive for that course. I get that the prices for greens fees have risen since Covid came about and everyone is playing. The fairways and greens were just punched and it was cartpath only for $122. Disappointing. There are certainly better courses to play for the money.

Horrible

Usually love this course….today’s green fee was $99. Guy says we just punched Monday.

That wasn’t the only thing:

1. All tees were forward
2. All tee boxes were a muddy mess
3. Course fairways were flooded
4. Fairways hadn’t been cut in two weeks

Super disappointed that golf now didn’t put up any warning when booking

Ripoff Now

The course was not in good shape when I played it. I have been playing it for lots of years but have never seen it like this. Tee boxes, fairways yuck.
Plus, they have basically doubled their prices in the past year.

A GREAT Day!

Hopefully discourse many times, now that we have moved out to the desert whenever I come back to orange county I try to sneak out and play around. Today the course was in great shape and had a great time. Would recommend Course to anyone looking for a fun round of golf

Fairways brown and muddy

We played the 1st tee off of the morning. The sprinklers were stopping in front of us. Shoes were going half inch in the ground, in the middle of the fairways, which were brown and muddy. They should give a discount for the early morning round if the conditions are that terrible.
