Course may have been nice at one time but is now in poor shape. Tried to hit a warm up bucket but no balls in dispensing machine, received a refund but no apology at the desk. Greens the poorest I've played in CA, same for the fairways. Traps in such poor shape some didn't have rakes. Never again.

For a round of golf on a nice layout with some distance and ok greens this is an ok place.
Fairways are just about gone, bunkers are almost pure dirt. But if you want a place to hit away this is it. If you are a low handicap this is not your place. If you want a place to pracitce some long drives and fairway woods (might have to fudge fairway lie) this place gives you some room to mess up. For what you pay this place is ok with most of my friends. Hey where else are you going to have a 500 yd hole into a 20 mile wind with no houses to hit for less than $20?
