Play this course alot (Creek Card holder, which is a great deal). Paid $45 (overseed special). Conditions were okay; we were rightfully warned. Cart path only til the 25th. Everything was very wet. Lots of standing water in fairways and on greens. #7, the hole was full of water. Greens had recently been vericut; in two weeks, whole course will be in great shape. Wait to go out. Starting Friday, 11/18 it's back to full price. Don't pay it. Wait til first of December when conditions will be better.

Course was in the middle of shaving the fairways for reseeding and still was in great condition. Compared to the price of other OC courses, Tijeras is a good bang for the buck. Sunday Happy hour was... Continue »

After reading some of the posted comments, I was pleasantly surprised by the playing conditions this weekend. Greens were in good shape, fairways a bit thin but playable. Back nine is one of the best in Orange County. Worth the green fee in my opinion.

I don't have a whole lot to add - the comments just prior to mine pretty much sum it up. Although perhaps I can add some more recent info on the condition of the greens: They evidently have healed up quite nicely. I thought they were just fine - held all shots well, putting was true and medium-fast. No complaints there. There were some pretty tight lies on some of the fairways - the fairways need some work and need to fill-in a bit. As for the rude staff....I'll be d%mn ed - people are not exaggerating!! Actually - John, the actual first-tee starter who sounded like he was from Texas was on-the-ball and a really nice guy - a real pleasure! But the rest of the pro-shop staff and marshalls acted like they had burrs under their saddles and pool-cues up their butts!! Lighten up, dudes! The bartender, Cheryl, was really cool, too! Nice lady! Overall the course was about a 6.5 out of 10.0 - Friday morning 9:30 A.M. start time - took 5.0 hours. Need more marshalls on the course - especially on the back side. Too many duffers looking all over for their lost balls! I must agree, the back side is as different as night is from day from the front! I lost more golf balls yesterday than I have in six months - and I'm not bragging, I just don't usually lose balls. Sheesh! I'm a 12.3 index - and I shot a smooth 40-48 (adjusted) = 88 - the back-side ate my freaking LUNCH!

Very pretty course. Not worth the $95.00 or the drive from Pasadena again - but - it I had a free pass - I might go again.

It's a good course that's in bad shape right now. The greens were just cross cut and need some time to heal. Still a very challenging course.

I've played this course a few times and must say the staff is tremenously rude. The course does get a lot of play so maybe they can be a tad rude. News flash, the course is not that great aside from picturesque back nine. The conditions vary from hole to hole and week to week. At it's best it's an 8 out of 10. Usually it's about a 6 to 7 out of 10. Expect very long rounds, lots of duffers and a rude staff. Want a similar course, try Coyote Hills. You'll get country club treatment.

First time at Tijeras Creek. Greens were in horrible shape...Wish they would have mentioned they were very recently aeriated.
Course itself provided an interesting challenge, but as a occasional slicer, the houses on the first 9 holes can play with your nerves.

This course is beautiful to play and is reall give you the run for your money. Remember to bring few more ball, especial for the back 9.
Will love to play there again.
