course is getting better. all the tee boxes are closed off, looks like they are overseeding but it seems like the finally leveled them out. tees are moved all the way up as of 10-23-07. some greens still need some work but i have noticed a vast improvement over 3 weeks. as usual staff is not the nicest around.

The greens are in poor shape... the worst greens I've played 20 years. Beyond very "slow and bumpy"! I thought it's time to punch and sand the greens (it's that time of year) but then someone mentio... Continue »

The greens are in poor shape... the worst greens I've played 20 years. Beyond very "slow and bumpy"! I thought it's time to punch and sand the greens (it's that time of year) but then someone mentioned that they did this a few weeks ago and he thought the greens were good... for Los Amigos! I know this is an inexpensive course but the greens are so bad that I feel like I've been ripped off. My opinion... go somewhere else, even if it cost more.

OK. Now I get it. Greens in poor. Wait poor is too kind. Greens are in horrendous condition. You want 4x4 off roading go to the OVC between Barstow and Vegas not a bloody golf course. You want f... Continue »

OK. Now I get it. Greens in poor. Wait poor is too kind. Greens are in horrendous condition. You want 4x4 off roading go to the OVC between Barstow and Vegas not a bloody golf course. You want fungus eating up a green? I mean really poor playing conditions. I can normally deal with a halfway decent course if their greens were in decent condition. Not the case here. This is an embarassment. I thought the greenskeeper has done fabulous things with regard to moving cart paths and green updates, but this fungus takes the cake. Not only would I never play here again. I am going to permanently remove this course from my favorites list. The greenskeeper should be embarrased. Not worth the time, frustration, effort and patience it takes to play golf if you are going to pay $41 to ride. They should bloody pay me to play.

Greens on the front nine are absolutely horrible!

Very dissapointed in the condition of the course. I just played here a couple of months ago, and was suprised how quickly the place went downhill. For a County course, you don't expect perfection, but the condition of the greens, sand traps and some of the tee boxes were just horrible. ALL the greens had fungus problems, some of them severe. On some of our putts, the balls "4X4"'d over the fungus for a bumpy ride to the hole. The traps had more mud than sand. The only saving grace is the fairways and the ease of getting on. You can always walk on here pretty quickly on a weekend. Also, management for some reason drained the lake. I don't think I'll be back soon since there are much better courses in the area for the same $$$.

Course played SLOW at first but after first 9 we started to move at a pretty good pace. Finished in 4 3/4 hours. Not bad for this busy course. Sand traps were terrible. Only about an inch or two of s... Continue »

Course played SLOW at first but after first 9 we started to move at a pretty good pace. Finished in 4 3/4 hours. Not bad for this busy course. Sand traps were terrible. Only about an inch or two of sand covering hard mud. Fairways were pretty good considering grass is dormant at this time of year. Tee boxes were not always flat but you can deal with it. Greens however rolled pretty true. An enjoyable game.

Played with two good friends on 7/3, a fair and challenging muni course, although once the greens dried out from the dew and watering, they were of good qualityand suprisingly tough. seems like they are trying to improve this course, alot of work going on, and they are emptying at least a couple of the lakes. Shot placement is key to lower scores on this course with so many doglegs. Pin placement was tough, never seemed to be on any level part of the green, even the friends I played with, who play here alot were supprised at how tough they were.

OK OK, for those of you that know me, I play here on a pretty regular basis. I know sometimes they run late with groups that set tee times. But for the single, twosome or threesome looking to get out fast well this is the place I always end up b/c they are very accommodating. Sure its smaller group friendly but that is how I play. Now for the course info. I know Johnny will wonder why I have such glowing reviews for a course that is typically a cow pasture but the greenskeeper here has done some pretty amazing things. Greens are in tip top shape. Not hard considering the time of the year but if you see what he is doing around the greens you will agree that these conditions will continue to only get better. Greens roll true. Some bounciness on back 9 but front 9 greens were amazingly quick for this muni where I typically have to use a full swing to get the ball to move a few feet. In other words, I would rate the greens very smooth, quicker than it looks and very receptive. Just fix your divots b/c everyone else here seems to do their part in maintaining the greens. Fairways a little burned out but I have noticed that even the trouble spots have been marked for maintenance. Tee boxes need a little more work but are relatively flat with a good rotation of the tees. Ponds are drying out for some reason, must be lack of rain or they may be just fixing up the place. Course played amazing fast but for some reason it felt a lot longer than it was. Thumbs up to the staff there. Course may be short but it offers a lot of character and shot selection. Rough is thicker and more prominent. Errant shots are not rewarded since rough is very sticky. Great little mature course with loads of character.
