I booked this tee time the night before play on an online discount golf site. I booked the 6:07AM time for $45. I wasn't sure what time sunrise was but was fairly sure I had the 1st tee time. My partner and I arrived at 5:45 and the only ones at the course were the maintance crew. At 6am the proshop attendant arrived and opened the shop at around 6:10. The sun broke the horizon about that time and we were on our way. One of the nines (mission) was flooded from the rains the day prior. So we were routed to the Friars/Presidio combination. Obviously the pace of play for us was awesome, finished in 3 1/2 hours. I was impressed with the condition of the course since the day before they received a couple of inches of rain. The fairways and greens had drained very well and were in good shape. No real noticeable green damage from ball marks and fairways were full and firm. The rough was fairly short and not much of a disadvantage. Bunkers were a little heavy but not hard. The only bad thing about the day was that the river that runs through the course was overflowing and causeing a lot of the fairway drains to back up and flood. This caused a ton of casual water. My brother in law lost two balls in a fairway lake of casual water. Aside from that I had an enjoyable time and the staff was very friendly. We didn't eat or drink anything at the course so no info or rating on the food or drink. If I had to pay full price, I would have been disappointed, but for the price I paid I was happy.
