5/31 100 tee time using deal time from teeoff $26 coolish afternoon with 415 POP usually waiting a bit but as a 3some following mostly 4somes it was not too bad. Fairways continue to have good areas with some thin patches. rough about 2 inches and not that penal although I found 1 lie next to a sprinkler that was about 6 inches deep and no way to justify relief.
Tees are not good with 2-3 exceptions. Bunkers have sand and unused rakes.
Greens are really good with healthy cover receiving well stuck approaches and rolling smoothly at medium fast speeds. If you focus just on the golf course itself it has better than average muni conditions but with all the construction and made up holes I can see how it would be rather off putting for some players. The club house waiting to be torn down and the closed driving range and now the torn up practice area looks like a set from the walking dead.
Staff is still very friendly and welcoming.

5/24 using teeoff deal time $27 with discount, nice 3 1/2 POP on a warm slightly breezy 1 pm tee time. The visuals are not very good as the course is in the middle of a destruction zone with the club house closed stripped and waiting to be torn down, the range is closed and the practice area is torn up but the putting green is still available probably until the CH comes down. Around the course itself a lot of dirt is being moved with what appears to be a rather confusing plan as some of what was done is being done over. The course conditions are way better than the overall look.
Most fairways have substantial areas of good cover with some being exceptional. Granted there are some thin areas and some animal damage or poorly healed areas from pipe replacement. some areas have been re-sodded but appear to have been left to die. Typically the closer to the fairway center the better lies. The rough is varied as well from thick grabby to thin and whispy and often beyond the rough there are some bare areas or waste land not necessarily a penalty area'
Tees need work. Bunkers now have rakes and 6 of the 7 I found had good groomed sand with only 1 being thin and hard packed.
The greens are really healthy mostly smooth with still a little top dressing evident. Not mowed really closely as they are being careful to allow more growth and protect against impending heat. Rolling about medium medium fast with as little grain to factor in.
Easy check in friendly staff.

Late to the party played 4/1 and 4/5 1245 tee time using teeoff deal time with discount code $25 and easy 345 POP. The course still has multiple construction projects with lot of dirt being moved and to add to the entertainment there is also a Caltrans effort using some major heavy equipment alog nthe rote between holes 3 and 4. Irrigation lines are being replaced on a sequential basis and currently #4 is closed. A new tee box is being created on what is currently #9(1st hole on east side of freeway thru the tunnel) and an area has been created for employee parking as the current parking lot has 2 large modular structures 1 for the proshop and 1 for restroom facilities as the current club house is being demolished 4/9.
Fairways are varied in condition 4 of them have really good cover another 4 have some bood areas and some not so much and the rest are mostly winter thin. Overall lies were quite playable. Rough was generally short and in places skimpy and a few thicker longer areas on some slopes and around some greens. Most bunkers have ample sand and now rakes which for the most part were unused. Tees are generally in poor condition.
Greens rolled well at medium fast speeds, mostly smooth but with occasional imperfections like healing ball marks or old holes.
Staff friendly and welcoming as usual.

Looking to play some where "different" and Shorecliffs certainly meets that criteria. I play here every few years, mostly because it is not that far from home, is inexpensive, and the staff is always friendly and I can generally get out without to much difficulty.

The recent review by Gary pretty much sums it up. Course has never been great, but seems to have slipped a bit condition wise. Even the greens, which usually are the best part of this course, were not as good as times past. Fairways were a mix of thin, decent and uncut areas. Rough was the same way, bare/thin/thick.

I never know what to expect when I play here, as every time they seem to change things. If you're looking to play a confusing golf course, Shorecliffs is the place to go.

3/22 1245 tee off deal time $26 with a 4 hr POP with a little waiting early then some struggles of our own slowed us down and with no one behind us fell into a very comfortable relaxed pace. There are still many projects underway so the course looks torn up around the edges. Fairways are a mix of dormant cover mostly firm and more on the thin side with some patches of nice grass. Rough is generally short except for some areas where there is a lot of watering going on. Tees tended to be hard and many uneven. From the view outside of the bunkers there seemed to be ample groomed sand.
Greens were fir medium fast and not as smooth as remembered. Had not played here for a couple of months and overall the course seems to have slipped a little as more resources are being directed toward the over haul and that along with winter conditions makes it seem rather tattered.
Friendly welcoming staff, DR with mats. Newer carts but no GPS.

11/4 1245 tee time using teeoff deal time with discount $22 POP just under 4. Current conditions are marginal. There is so much construction/re-design going on that many areas have a devastated look. There has been a lot of brush and tree removal, some of which helps keep the ball in play but some like along 1, 6, 7, 8 has removed the growth to the point that it looks quite rugged and reveals a muddy stream as well as showing the adjoining fairways. Some of the work was done to remove non native species but it really looks stark for now.
Fairways are in late summer condition, some are quite good while others have thin areas. Tees generally poor and bunkers have been groomed but are covid stressed. Rough cut down for now.
Greens are slowly recovering but still about n2 weeks away from being good.
Staff friendly and welcoming as usual.

10/9 teeoff deal time $29 POP just under 4 but felt slower as we a 2some followed a 4some with 1 very deliberate player that also did a lot of backtracking to get his club on the green and fiddled with getting his clubs into the cart--just looked bad but as stated pace was not that bad--group could have let us through as the course was clear ahead.
Fairways remain in good shape overall, some thin areas and some with nixed grasses but lies were good 95% of the time. Rough cut down to about an inch. Tees thin and many slanted. Bunkers in prime covid shape, recently groomed but well traveled.
Greens quick but showing some effect from the heat, with pitch marks some thin areas and some spots having been repaired.

9/ 16 using teeoff deal time $31 POP 410 fairly busy 1100 time following a 5some and a slowish 4some. Fairways are still ok overall with some brownish areas and still pretty good cover. Rough about 2 inches mostly thick enough to make it interesting. Bunkers mostly groomed with covid conditions and varying sand quality. Tees thin many slanted to some degree.
Greens are again the highlight for the course mostly healthy mostly smooth rolling medium fast. Some pins in places I have never seen before often nears the periphery and often tucked behind bunkers for front placements.
Course is still a major construction mode so aesthetics are not so good. Still a fun tricky layout with accuracy a premium.

8/18 really nice POP 315--fairways getting enough water and provide good lies but not as much roll out. Rough long and thick enough to really slow the ball but not overly penal to hit from. Tees have some issues some not level and overall mostly thin with some divot damage on the 3s. Bunkers groomed but covid restrictions leave traffic signs as the day goes on.
Greens are in heat damage prevention mode getting water and being cut a little longer for now resulting in more grain and a medium speed. Also on the softer side so very receptive.
Course is under going renovation and reconstruction so the aesthetics are an issue and with the current plan to keep 18 holes in play there are some holes that have been repurposed so to speak.
Conditions are not bad but don't expect that up scale look. Staff is still friendly and new carts are a plus.
