Played 5/31 @ 2:00. Finished @ 7:00 (long round). Course is in good shape. Greens are pretty good right now for Balboa. I hope they continue to improve on the conditions. Rough is challenging to say the least. I didn't hit many fairways which took it toll on my score. I'll definately be back some for some more punishment. I own the course one. Its worth the money right now.

Played Saturday May 24. Course is in pretty good shape right now. The fairways are lush, the rough is penalizing (thick but fair) and the greens ran fairly well. Having played Balbloa numerous times over the years, these conditions are certainly some of the best I have seen there. It was very windy on Saturday and this made the course more challenging than usual. For 6200 yards from the tips this is a very difficult course, it puts a huge premium on straight driving. $35 resident rate is still one of the best deals in SD.

Played on 4-17, teed off at 3:30 was in the clubhouse by 6:45. Great price for residents $17, greens were just punched and to much sand was screened on the greens. Difficult course, with easy pin placement, just wish the upkeep was a little better.

Played on Tues 12/18 @ 9am. Having played here 3 mths before, I was surprised at just how in poor shape some parts of the course were. Tee box near the turn was essentially hardened mud. A few spots on fairways again very muddy. Sand was a bit wet in one of the bunkers. On a positive side, greens were soft and medium speed and while we were behind a foursome, our twosome finished under 4 hrs. I appreciate it is a well-used muni, but overall a mediocre experience.

Had a 12:30 tee time, but didn't get out until almost 1:00 because of players waiting for carts. Expected a long round, and got it - just over 5 hours. The course overall was in pretty good shape. ... Continue »

Had a 12:30 tee time, but didn't get out until almost 1:00 because of players waiting for carts. Expected a long round, and got it - just over 5 hours. The course overall was in pretty good shape. The fairways were smooth and the rough was long in some places but not brutal. The greens were a mess though thanks to people not repairing their ball marks and had to play to a few alternate greens that were very dry. I've seen it better and I've seen it worse, but about what you expect from a heavily-played muni course.

Played 9/2 @ 2:30. The only things good about the course right now is the greens and the views. Course is burned out. Many dirt spots in the fairways & rough. Some of the rough was ridiculously th... Continue »

Played 9/2 @ 2:30. The only things good about the course right now is the greens and the views. Course is burned out. Many dirt spots in the fairways & rough. Some of the rough was ridiculously thick. Soggy as hell in front of greens. Greens aren't really that good but better than usual (still bumpy in spots).

Played 8/26 @ 2:30. Course is in O.K. shape. The greens have gotten a little better. They need to work on the rough (dirt) and certain spots in the fairways but worth $17.

Played twilight on 8/12. Course is in pretty good shape. The City/Am is over w/ so the course conditions will probably start declining. Greens were pretty good for a Muni. Fairways were in decent shape. Tee boxes have never been that great nor will they be. Well worth the $17 I paid.

Played twilight @ 2:14. Course is getting ready for the City/Am. Hole #2 was a temp because a pipe broke in the morning and flooded the real green. Anywho, course is in O.K. condition. Greens are a little better than last time I played. Rough is really thick in some spots. Tees are nothing to brag about. Just your average Muni conditions w/ an above average layout.
