Played Maderas last weekend and it was in a great shape despite the fairways and rough being dormant. The ball sat up nicely, the greens were fast and smooth, tee boxes where immaculate and bunkers well maintained. Tough layout although. Visually interesting but tough. The greens are very difficult to read and seem to always break in two different directions on every putt. In the fairway it was rare to find a level lie and when you miss them, forget about your ball. There is ESA all over the place and the bunkers come into play on every tee shot and approach. It does not matter what tees you play, you got to bring game. It was my first time playing Maderas and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Besides the course the service was excellent and the clubhouse is beautiful. I particularly enjoyed the secluded remote atmosphere. I will be back soon.

Beautiful golf course. Conditions are great right now. Surrounding vegetation is a lush as I’ve seen it. Hole 9 is one of the best tee shots in the county. Make sure you tee off from the back to get the full effect. Jump on the twilight rate or look for discount. Green fees are a bit too much. I’d still treat myself about once or twice a year but knock $15 off the weekend rate, and I’m there once a month. Great course.

We were NOT extremely pleased with the conditions. Courteous staff and lots of effort on the course to get it back in shape. I didn’t expect much before playing based on the previous postings but I enjoyed the layout and at least they weren’t punching the greens like everyone else. I give Westridge another shot around the holidays. Hopefully it will be in better condition.

It is what it is. Short course, crowded, with some interesting holes. It’s not a course I’d bring my father-in-law from Ohio to. Fairways were being aerated and the rest of the course was in so-so shape. A local track.

And why would you say it resembles a muni??? Do you play muni’s because Coyote Hills is far from a muni. I played the course last week and granted they are doing some needed maintenance around the green complexes but in general the course was in very good shape. I want to know the munis you play so I can play them too.

The Pelican Hill golf course are my favorite in OC. The green fee is steep…too steep...but the experience memorable. I played twilight today on the North although the twosome we joined played the South yesterday and said the South was in better shape. The North was in great shape though so I wasn’t disappointed. Greens were immaculate…Service was good…Layout was awesome…Good times.
