For 15 bucks, it could have been a goat pasture. Instead it was a well maintained muni, with a nice competent staff. It is on an island in Coronado and it started out misting. The unusual weather may have accounted for a quick pace of play-about 3 and a half hours for a foursome. You have a fair amount of bad golfers out there, but they know to keep up the pace and pick up to not hold anyone up. I played it Monday and Wednesday. I am on vacation, by myself and it was an easy place to pick up a game.
Would travel: 10-20 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Average course for the area
