Being on this course and you end up forgetting that you are in the middel of Irvine. Some of the rough is just that; ROUGH! Get too far off the fairways and you could lose a small child in that stuff!! That said; NO houses, no street noise, awesome scenery! This place is one of the nicest courses I've played, anywhere, (and I've played a few!) If there is a drawback, it's the price, but my guess is that this is one of the main reasons this course stays in such great condition. The groundkeepers obviously work very hard to keep this course in A-1 shape.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level, Best course in the area, Fair priced based on quality and competitive area pricing
Condition of Course, Difficulty, Layout, Ambiance, No Houses on Course, Staff
