played the blacks on friday 4/12 on a golf now 26.00 hot deal, weather high 60's with 10 to 15 mph wind.first let me say it has been over a year since I have played up here in Ramona (about a 40 min drive) and if not for Rubyclub's last review I might not have gone...so just to be clear all the reviews I had read from other sourses said don't waste your money,no grass in the fairways,greens are like putting on dirt, well I am here to say its not true...the greens were very good(yes occasionaly small bald spots near the outer edges of 2 or 3 greens)fairways were lush,some large of trees have been cut down,bunkers were great, service was very good(grumpy had the day off)maintance is still working hard.As of today they tell me they have not recieved a time line when they will close to overhaul the course.as for the two things I think that were under par...all the black tee boxes had been punched and sanded and were not very leval at all, and my other concern is how the course treats single golfers(yes I was the only purchased tee time at 12..but they make no attempt to group with a three some that tee off 1152 or a single at 1212 so be forwarned if you need to play with others you might want to bring your own!
lastly sometimes you have to see a course to guage someone elses review..play it now and make own judgement before it closes.
