They have put a lot of work into the course in the past few years and have improved it greatly. I have taken and recommended this course to a few of my friends. I am retired military and play it every Friday.

Played in a tournament at this course. Very enjoyable experience! The track was difficult. The course conditions were fantastic. The tournament was very well run by the staff, with plenty of food and beverages available. Can't beat military prices on the refreshments!

Great strides have been made to improve this track AND IT SHOWS. The greens will blow your mind; fast and true. Fairways have been narrowed by growing in the rough. This course is a real challenge and still can kick my butt even though I am retired Marine and have played it for years. A lot of character, birds and animals. It's an awesome track.

I like this course ! Tough enough that I would not try the back tees.

A very challanging layout with lots of trees to contend with. Good elevation changes. Excellent greens and good fairways. Most of the bunkers are in excellent shape. I will play this one again and again.

Pretty standard layout. Postage stamp grees, but the course ran true to what do you typically get for 40 bucks on a weekend in Socal.

If they could get the greens to roll better, this would be one of the best courses in the area.

Best course in the North San Diego County. Greens are great. Longer than most. Distance from the white is blue at most courses. Just remodeled all the bunkers. Beautiful job. Not many courses in Southern Cal, you can play and not have any homes on the course. I've played course that I've paid twice as much to play and they weren't half as good.
