Played this morning 7:30 single, two guys walking in front of me that waived me through by the 5th hole. Had the rest of the course to my self, Beautiful day on the central coast. I have played here several times since it has opened and I have to say that the conditions right now are incredible. This course is coming in very well, greens are always gonna be hard and fast but thats ok with the links style golf here. The fairways are very lush and the native grass and rough are making this course look and feel like your in Scotland. Cant say how happy I am to see the conditions here improve each month. I would recommend playing fairly early to avoid the wind that whips up around here. Nice staff, all around very good.

Come to the area each summer and try to play here each time. Showed up on the afternoon of 7-17, $35 and got right on. I usually play firecliff but decided to try mountain view, wow what a great round. course has always been in great condition even during the hot summer, with the usual slower greens that make you trust yourself to just hit it firm most of the time. Its a great layout, not overly difficult, but very fun. Played 18 in just over two hours and never saw anyone else on the course. I wish i was playing with someone cause I finally broke 80 with two bogeys and a double on the last three holes for a 79. If I lived here, which someday I may retire to this area, this would be my home course for sure. I cant say enough good things about both 18's.

Played early AM so I could get to the A's game by noon. First time here so was not sure what to expect. Upon arival, as a single, pro shop gentleman advised that two foursomes just went out in front of me and asked if I wanted to start on 10. Course conditions are perfect, very lush from tee to green, not a brown spot in sight. Finished the back nine in about 1.5 hours due to no one, and I mean no one around. Only saw one twosome on the front and finished the round in under 3 hrs. It is a fairly short course , par 63 but its still challenging and very fun. Only gripe was the greens were very slow, but very true. Had a great time here, will be back when I visit the mother in law again. she's not that bad plus she can cook so it might not be that long.

Definitely one of the finest courses from LA to SF, Great customer service, all around great track that takes strategy and guts to score.

Played twi-light on 11-30 on a clear crisp and windy day. Course is good, greens were a bit pocked but rolled true, faster than previous visits. Fairways were in great shape, tee box's good, as always this course is overall very good. Staff very friendly and food at the snack bar is really good.

After reading the reviews and hearing about this course I have been wanting to play it for a long time. I drove the three hours to get away on 9/11 and checked in as a single. The starter said there was a threesome on the tee and I could join them. paid $35 to walk, what a steal and met the guys. Thanks to their local course knowledge and friendly words of advice, I really enjoyed the round. I like the layout very much, its fair and long from the blues and greens were tough but in great condition. Not sure how the conditions have been during the summer but I found the course to be good. Thanks to the fellas I played with for making my day enjoyable on a rather somber date in history.

One word, Rockhardgreens. Very fast with lots of slope. course is doing great, pace of play was good on a fairly crowded afternoon. Try to avoid the natural mounds off the fairway and greenside, most are heavy rough with verticle lips.. big trouble. Had a good front nine with almost two hole in ones on #8 and one on the back on #11. Both hit the pin on the bounce, birdied 8 and three putted for bogey on #11.

Had not played here in some time and was very pleased. This course was not one of my Fav's but after this round, I will be back. Very pleased to see the conditions so good from tee to green. Not a long course but lots of elevation and slope that causes errant tee shots to roll way out into nasty stuff. Food was great, staff was cool, and the price is wonderful. Very happy to see this county course come around and begin to mature into a fun layout.

Played with a group today after getting a free round coupon via e-mail. That was the best thing about this course,, free golf. If I would have paid anything over $20 i would feel ripped off. Fairways were being tore up by some mulching type mower, still difficult to determine the fairways from the rough. Only good thing about this poor county course was the greens. sand was bad, dead dirt patches all over, thios course is bad. Now I can see why they are offering so many deals via internet

I played 0n 6-28 with a rate of $30 after 2pm. From the time we got to the club house we were treated great. Excellent customer service all around. Marriot desert springs needs to take a lesson from these guys and gals. Its a wonderful course, one of my favorites anywhere with great conditions. This course looks intimidating with all the bunkers and water but as long as you keep it relatively straight, you can score good. The word is that they are building a Westin Hotel next to the course.

Had to get away from the desert springs resort fiasco and play somewhere decent. Course is very fair and has many false fronts and bunkers. Very fun to play, greens were good for this time of the year and overall conditions were excellent.

Much like the last reviewer we arrived on 6-25 with a large group scheduled to play four days of golf. We were told that the Palms course was closed till 7-20 and all play would be on the Valley. First off I have been coming here for 6 yrs and have always enjoyed playing the Palms much more and when told that we would be stuck on the Valley for the week, that sucked. The greens were awfull, fairways tore up, tee boxes not level on several holes, by far the worst condition i have ever seen here. Add on 5 1/2 hour rounds due to all the play going on one course and it all adds up to this being my last summer golf fest here.
