My favorite course by far.(considering I've only played Knollwood and here) Hole 17 is a great hole. Lots of variation between holes. Unless you hit consistently and know your distance, I suggest taking 2 clubs with you at the tee box.

Played with *kviser* and our two lady co-worker teammates Saturday, April 5. The sanding on the greens was excessive, so I quit putting by the 6th, so as to not ruin my mental putting image (I gotta perform on Monday @ Spanish Hills in a tournament!)

The course was in decent shape. We had our teammates, for an upcoming work-group tournament, out for a practice round. This was their first time on the course, where as *kviser* and myself have played this short Executive for many years, off and on. We did notice that FINALLY the 17th Hole green access bridge has been REPLACED! Yea!!!!

The couse facility was busy that day, with a DEMO Day going on, so when we finished, we took the opportunity to swing the new drivers & 3-woods. ANYTIME you get to practice on the range off the GRASS is wonderful (usually you hit off mats --- I hate mats).

Played on saturday, nice layout for an Exec course.. First group out so we finished just under 4hours.. Kinda fun to hit driver then a 9 iron or wedge into the green.. Place was in decent shape and for $31 so it was a bargain.. Greens were surprisingly quick for this course..

Played Saturday the 15th. First group out and took us a little under 4 hours to finish. Tee boxes were in good condition. Fairways were okay and wide. I found myself in alot of traps this round, so they were great, trust me. Greens were great. A couple of challenging hole placements. Overall place was great.

Played both the Vista (executive par 61, 4366 yds.) and the Chica (par 3) on 01/05/08, e-mail special rate of $14, cart incl. Hey, we weren't going to play at this overpriced, under-maintained, goose... Continue »

Played both the Vista (executive par 61, 4366 yds.) and the Chica (par 3) on 01/05/08, e-mail special rate of $14, cart incl. Hey, we weren't going to play at this overpriced, under-maintained, goose infested muni-style course. However, the "rainy day special" of 14 bones made it too hard to resist. As it turns out, the place was not that bad, especially since it had rained pretty hard overnight. Had to use cart because the 6 bridges that cross the creek running through the course were flooded. There was a line of trash and debris within 25 feet of the creek in many areas. Some fairways were flooded. Water overflowed the lake on #7 and ran through the course until it found the creek near #2 green. It was cart path only. Sand traps were flooded. Now for the good. Greens fast and smooth. Also very soft and receptive. Pace of play was good, most likely due to the weather keeping people at bay. If I could recommend anything, it would be to place 6 new, larger bridges, lose the geese, overseed fairways and edge the greens.

We also got to play the Chica course for free. These greens could be a lot nicer. They are small,bentgrass greens with interesting slopes and undulations set amid native oaks in a small, canyon setting. However, nobody fixes ball marks here and there are lots of bare areas. This has the potential to be a great place to work on your short game.

Normally, they charge a lot to play these courses. With that in mind, some of what they take in should go back into course maintenance.

We played on Sunday, 11/25 with a midmorning tee time. It took us about 4 hours to play 18 holes. It was a lot quieter than normal due to the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

It seems the course has recovered well from overseeding from a month ago. Carts were not "cart path only". The fairways were in fair condition. Although some of the fairways were dry and wet in spots.

The greens were in good conditon. There were several unrepaired ball marks on the greens. I noticed when we putted that the balls bounced around a little bit.

This course has a lot of variety to play here. There are uphill and downhill tee shots as well as the island green on the 17th hole. Even though it is an executive course, it can be challenging to play here.

Played on 10/19/07. The tee boxes and fairways are being reseeded and it was cart path only. Tees were moved all the way forward (almost on the downslope) and overly sanded. Several greens had some... Continue »

Played on 10/19/07. The tee boxes and fairways are being reseeded and it was cart path only. Tees were moved all the way forward (almost on the downslope) and overly sanded. Several greens had some idiot damage. Hey, ball marks are one thing, but an angry swing on a defenseless green is ridiculous. Other than that, it wasn't that bad. Being an executive course, the price could be a little lower.

Played Sunday (07/29/2007) at 2:30 p.m. Starter shouldn't have
let anyone out because there was a TOURNAMENT for the kids.
Needless to say, it was SUPER SLOW IN EVERY HOLE. Many groups,
including us have to leave with so many holes left to play. Beside
that, the course was way over rated; should be approx. 5.5 at most.
There are so many bare, brown area at the fairway and all the
greens are being sanded. Perhaps, We may play after a few months.

Played here on Memorial day with a tee time just before 12 noon. Pace of play was a little slow being a holiday. It took us just over 4 hours to play. This is not an easy course to play. Water comes into play on several holes. It's a fun course to play. There are several holes where you hit up and some where you hit down. The 17th hole island green is always a challenge to play. The course is in great condition. I noticed that some of the tee boxes were punched. Green fees on the weekend is a little high for an exec course but we frequently get e-mail specials for this course which helps a lot. This is one of my favorite courses to play.
