Started early and the course was wet. The fairways drained very well and were in great condition. The greens were generally smooth and fast as they dried. Some spots in the greens stayed wet due to inadequate drainage but not wet enough to negatively effect play. Even wet the greens were firm. Sand was in great condition and played consistently throughout. Always a fun course to play.

The tee boxes, fairways, and rough are in excellent shape. The bunkers are fiiled with crushed marble. The greens had some bumps due to ball marks but other than that they role smooth. I have played s... Continue »

The tee boxes, fairways, and rough are in excellent shape. The bunkers are fiiled with crushed marble. The greens had some bumps due to ball marks but other than that they role smooth. I have played several of the $100-$150 golf courses in Orange County and Talega has the best layout. The fairways are reasonably wide but there are plenty of fairway bunkers. It is an enjoyable round of golf.

Always a fun layout, w/ long, testy par 3s and inviting par 4s and 5s. Greens have seen better days, but still good, w/ lots of undulations. Fairways are excellent, plush. GPS was quite precise w/ ... Continue »

Always a fun layout, w/ long, testy par 3s and inviting par 4s and 5s. Greens have seen better days, but still good, w/ lots of undulations. Fairways are excellent, plush. GPS was quite precise w/ yardage to pin as well as front and back of green.

The staff was friendly and attentive. The pace of play is reasonably fast as well. I got every penny's worth. Always a joy to play on such a beautiful course w/ great layout, pace of play, service, and conditions.

Gotta say we have seen this wonderful facility in better shape,, practice green is outstanding,but the on course greens are not as fast nor as smooth nor as good looking, pins were placed in pro TV type positions today, Thursday, we didnt mind but seemed strange,a couple were maybe 5 feet from edge, Very nice place but for the $$ should be almost perfect,, not today,, just guessing but maybe a lot of memberships have been sold, now no reason to keep it up to prior standards,,,

ONE OF THE BEST LAYOUTS I'VE EVER PLAYED. THE PAR 3'S WERE GREAT. STRANGE HOW SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FACILITY HAS NO RANGE, PROBABLY BUILT MORE HOMES INSTEAD. $92 ON WEEKDAYS A LITTLE HIGH, BUT HAD 2 FOR 1 ... Continue »

Overseeding still in progress, so fairways are soppy wet. "Cart paths only restriction" nullifies the excellent GPS (which were timely w/ helpful tips, but the ads were a bit annoying) on carts. Greens have lots of undulations and are recovering quickly from aeratio. We barely noticed any potmarks on most greens. Greens were firm and most ballmarks were repaired. Good putts will hold their lines, but the ubiquitous undulation and multi-tiered greens add another level of challenge to scoring on this course.

Layout is aesthetically and architecturally pleasing, as the succession of holes winds thru the burgeoning housing developments of San Clemente hillsides. One of the prettiest courses in OC. Every hole seemed different, but especially pleasing was that every seemingly blind shot had a corresponding landmark to help the golfer aim. I used almost every club in my bag. Loved the layout (from the 600+ yd par 5 to the par 3 w/ cascading waters to the drivable par 4 w/ perilous risk/reward), hated the soppy wet overseeding conditions. Will definitely be back once the course recovers. It's obvious that powers that be really care about this new facility and take good care of it. Last bit of annoyance is the lack of driving range.
