Great day for Golf

Great day to play golf at Admiral Baker the greens were in great shape the fairways some needed some work but overall the course is in great condition the staff is very friendly and helpful they could use the Marshall to keep foursomes in the right order there was quite a gap in front of us and cause us to go over 4 hours for our round otherwise a pretty good pace.

Course was in descent shape. Some signs of damage from heavy rain over winter. Not serious golf but a lot of fun and different challenges.

This course is a fun place to play. Easy to walk and forgiving for the less experienced. Not a lot of hazards and just enough of a challenge to make it fun.

Rains

Popular course improved by recent weather. With limited sun some barren patches exist on some fairways but winter rules could be used. Still a wonderful course.

short course with bumpy greens

Baker South is a short course with small greens. It's not punishing to play. The staff is good, the course is run well. The conditions are better than average except the greens will still recovering from aeriation. Two weeks from now, it should be very good. A good day of golf on a busy Sunday and we still finished in less the 4.5 hours even with a partying five some in front of us. We had a nice time and will be back.

They must fix a few fairways to deserve more stars

Most of the course is in OK condition, but there are a few fairways that, unfortunately, throughout the years have remained without being fixed, such as No. 1, 9, and others. They have huge dry areas where the dirt is hard and you better give yourself a free drop behind them for they are impossible to play it as it lies.
They really have to work on those faults.

Convenient and value for money.

Nice people, great bar room food etc. nice views from patio.
Good value for the money. Not difficult course but certainly good enough to knock the rust off.

Great tune up

I'll be playing in tournament later this week and can get a feel of shots I may need. The greens were a little slow and I left several putts just a little short. Always a good time playing this course. The staff and starter are a delight to work with. Overall with all the rain we have had the course is in very good shape.

Great tune up

Played the South in 3 hrs 20 minutes. Not to crowded because of threat of rain. Had slight drizzle on the 17th but nothing more. Always a great time at either of these courses and the guys/gals in pro shop are always easy to work with. With all the recent weather SD has had the course is in amazing shape. See you next time.

Course is great for beginners

Nothing too special about the South course itself, the design is average the conditions vary throughout the year and the greens could be great one month and mediocre the next. But overall the clubhouse and practice facilities are very nice, and the more advanced golfer can play the much nicer and longer North Course.

Great course

Admiral Baker provides a great golf experience at a convenient location. The staff were very friendly and helpful which made getting on the course easy and with no delays. They were very organized on a busy day. Overall, this was one of the best courses I’ve played in San Diego.

I will be playing here much more often.

Beginners playing South Course

I feel like this course is open enough for beginners but has enough hazards to keep the golfer honest. The staff was very friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed.
