Few days late on the review. Played Sunday, Feb 15. Tee time 9am. $53 civilian walking rate, well worth it. POP was excellent at 4hrs. Waited a little bit on the front 9 but then blazed through the back. What a fun course, it was only my second time playing it.

Few days late on the review. Played Sunday, Feb 15. Tee time 9am. $53 civilian walking rate, well worth it. POP was excellent at 4hrs. Waited a little bit on the front 9 but then blazed through the back. What a fun course, it was only my second time playing it.

White tee boxes were in great shape. Nicely mown and very level. No complaints other than they were a little hard packed underneath and I tee the ball low, so broke quite a few tees.

Fairways in great shape. Perfect roll and cushion. Visually they're awesome, as well, as they are a perfect lighter shade of green than the rough and they were mown perfectly to show a great crisply mown contrast against the darker color rough. They get pinched in many landing areas so very narrow, some are only about 15-20 yds wide.

Found one bunker greenside and it was great. No problems.

Rough was lush and thick. Ball tended to sit down and definitely made you grip firm and hit down on the ball as best as possible.

Greens were great. Held shots very well and putted true with a fast pace especially when the dew dried. They got quick and were a blast to putt.

Customer service was just fine. The guy at the main gate was awesome. Proshop was no frills. And the starter was hilarious. Beverage cart was out and about and the lady in the snack bar was a kick!!!! All and all, just a great day. Perfect weather with 3 great friends. Highly recommend.

Sadly, Tecolote Canyon ceased operation as of Feb 15 2025 due to city construction work on a 5 mile length of sewer line that runs through the center of the course. Construction is expected to be finished sometime this summer.

City officials are promising to keep the property a golf course but seeing is believing

Late review after a round last Friday, about 7:30 am tee off. Walked from the blue tees with two riders and another walker. Not a quick round but the back nine was faster than the front and we finished in less than 4.5 hours. Snack bar was open when we made the turn.

The course was still wet in places from the rain last Tuesday but much better than when I played in Jan... » More

Late review after a round last Friday, about 7:30 am tee off. Walked from the blue tees with two riders and another walker. Not a quick round but the back nine was faster than the front and we finished in less than 4.5 hours. Snack bar was open when we made the turn.

The course was still wet in places from the rain last Tuesday but much better than when I played in January. For whatever reason there was still a moisture problem from the restroom building next to the 13th tee extending into the fairway, including a buildup of water on the cart path. The fairways were good if a little shaggy for this time of year. The sand traps were lousy, wet mud for the most part. The greens were pretty quick and held shots well. There were some difficult putts out there considering the speed and slope.

The course is playable but playing longer than usual. I would give it a few days to dry out but worth the play considering the cost.

Played 2-15-26 afternoon as a twosome for $35 walking finishing in a little over 4 1/2 hours with no waiting on the first six holes and then waiting for every shot through 18. Tee boxes were thin and bare in some spots and having to search for a level stance on most of them. Fairways were okay with some good coverage mixed in with some thin and bare areas, decent roll out and j... » More

Played 2-15-26 afternoon as a twosome for $35 walking finishing in a little over 4 1/2 hours with no waiting on the first six holes and then waiting for every shot through 18. Tee boxes were thin and bare in some spots and having to search for a level stance on most of them. Fairways were okay with some good coverage mixed in with some thin and bare areas, decent roll out and just okay lies. Rough was not much longer than the fairways and in about the same shape. Bunkers for the most part were not in good condition, some with little sand and hard surfaces, and others with some sand but a lot of small pebbles mixed in, and occasionally some decent sized rocks. Although the greens looked okay they didn't play very well. Slow and bumpy with a lot of unrepaired and poorly repaired pitch marks. Hard to keep a putt on line. I don't play here that often anymore, and every time I come back the course conditions are very disappointing.

Out last Friday the 13th with a foursome, all riding and playing the whites. Not really a walking course for most people and not sure it's even an option. Last time I played here was about a year ago and about 25 yrs before that. Conditions on the day were solid all around. Last time, the greens were unexpectedly punched and sanded while this time around they were fine — runnin... » More

Out last Friday the 13th with a foursome, all riding and playing the whites. Not really a walking course for most people and not sure it's even an option. Last time I played here was about a year ago and about 25 yrs before that. Conditions on the day were solid all around. Last time, the greens were unexpectedly punched and sanded while this time around they were fine — running the quick side of medium and pretty clean.

Minor quips: the cart was a bit sluggish and the range has a touch of sidehill to it. Otherwise, perfect weather, some great views, the pace was good, drink cart came around numerous times. An interesting layout that can require specific placement and course knowledge to best maneuver some of the doglegs.
