Played on 01/25/08. Hard to tell the difference between the fairway and the rough from the tee...fairways are not green. The greens were in nice shape however. This was my first time in a long time playing this course, but I was not impressed...maybe it is a winter thing, but I will not rush to play this course again. You can play nicer courses for the same money (i.e. The Vineyard)

This is an UPDATED Review, played on Monday Jan. 14th 2008: This course was in the line of FIRE during the month of October 2007. There are areas around the golf course which were burned, did NOT see any structures or homes lost in the fires. :) To see a TOUR of the course, go to: http://www.EagleCrestGC.com/courseinfo/crsTour.php Very tight & narrow golf course located in Escondido (North of San Diego). This is a MUST play golf course, beautiful scenery, very playable but a challenge for the ladies too. There are certain holes which you need to negotiate properly otherwise you'll end up in the water hazards. Took a long time to play our round, a little over 5 hours for a Monday! The greens were punched 4 months ago & are in excellent condition, very smooth with some speed! The fairways are passable, more like hitting from low rough conditions, hard to tell where the fairway starts & the rough begins. The driving range length is very short, recommend hitting irons ONLY! Very nice LARGE practice putting green & chipping area. There are NO yardage books or GPS systems BUT ALL of the sprinklers are well marked with yardage distances. Brought along my Golf Logix to calculate yardages, very accurate. The sand bunkers are hard (Recent rains did not soften the texture), like hitting out of compacted DIRT. :( The course has recently marked many areas "ground under repair" which I attribute to the recent heavy rains. I expect this course to be in better condition in the next 2 months!

played 8-11=07. love the layout, tight fairways at times. but basically wide open. long iron hitters can take adv of some par 4's. greens fair. fairways fine, rough short. good price. greenskeeper did great job here. greens were terrible 6 months ago. lots better now. pace was fast. had great time. will be back.

Good Course. Playable for all levels. Fairways need some work, but very playable.

I had been warned to stay away. (won't disclose the source) the greens are very nice .... smooth and reasonably quick, The fairways are not great, very "patchy) but playable, might want to consider some "winter rules" on parts of the fairway. Bunkers, rough decent. I like this track which probably influences my perspective, plus played on a 2 for 1 coupon, so made for a pleasant checap day of course. It's not bad, just be prepared for some poor lies in the fairways.

The course layout is nice but the fairway/rough is not distinguishable. The rough is way too thin that does not penalize bad tee shots. Greens are smooth and roll true. I would only play if I get disc... Continue »
