I see a lot of negative feedback for this course, but I feel it is unwarranted. For the price, I think this course if very fair. A short course that rewards smart course managment. Greens are still recovering from being punched and another 2 weeks will do some wonders. Otherwise, everything else was in good shape except the sand, which is always bad. Still one of the better values in OC.

it is worthy to play cheap green fee!!

Tee boxes have been rebuilt with better sod and leveling. Much better. Fairways show typical cold season domant turf, but very playable. Less than half of the sand traps have sand...calichi in the others. Play on Tuesday 1-16-07 was 30mins behind. 4 hours and 45mins. Mens Club
has tee on first Wedneday of the month. This coase is still a jewel.

Played on 1/1. Greens were great, very fast. The fairways and tee boxes were bare in spots. The sand traps were dirt, not sand. Tough course if you have never played. Lots of doglegs and elevatio... Continue »

Played on Friday morning after the rain. The course was in so-so shape but there were a lot of bare spots. The rain did help to soften up the greens quite a bit but they were still fast. The course is fun to play with a lot of dogleg's and elevation changes...mainly going uphill.

I like the course is challenge especialy if you haven't play,if you play beforeit can be fun,but play your shoots carefully.

First time playing here and, after reading the reviews, was a little skeptical. However, I enjoyed this course. Is it a 5 star course, not at all... but for $59, by OC standards, this place is good. Tee boxes were lush, albeit unlevel on a few holes given the hilly terrain. The fairways were cut tight and no severe bare spots around. Rough was decent, although quite a few tree roots can be seen. Greens were recently punched and are coming around nicely. As for the bunkers, some were in good shape, some were like concrete. Whereas on one hole I could get a great splash out of the sand, the other would just stopped my club cold. The other interesting feature (which has been well do c&me nted) is the HUGE doglegs on this course. Being overly confident I tried to cut the corners (which cost me 2 sleeves of balls might I add) but I would not recommend it. Layups are the way to go if you are confident with your lower irons. Most doglegs are 180-210 yrds out and uphill. Furthermore, if you try to cut the corner, you have to carry 275-300 yrds or so as most are over another, taller hill. Also, the long 254 yrd par 3, downhill, plays the distance stated as it is into the wind. My favorite hole is #18, par 5, hitting from an elevated tee (probably 250 ft up or so) into a tree lined fairways with a rear crosswind left pushing balls into a hillside if you don't hit a straight ball or have too much draw. No joke, GPS measures, my cousin drove the ball 373 yrds on this hole (thank god his short game sucks or I would have owed him lunch). All in all, a decent course I would recommend for a quick, less expensive round.

Quick take on the course conditions. Tee boxes in fair shape, fairways in good shape and greens in very good shape with few divot marks. Only one truly unfair hole in my opinion is the par 4 ninth. ... Continue »

Quick take on the course conditions. Tee boxes in fair shape, fairways in good shape and greens in very good shape with few divot marks. Only one truly unfair hole in my opinion is the par 4 ninth. The tee box was in line with the trees on the right side of the fairway. Not good for an 18 handicaper like me.

Hadn't played here since June 2000. The course is not one of my favorites (I like to walk and this one in the heat can be a little too much for these old bones to handle) Generally the course was in nice shape, although the greens were recently punched and were too slow and bumpy for my taste. You know, this is not a hard course, but seems everytime I play here I struggle, but I'll be back, oh, in about another 6 years.
