Beautiful old course with super pure conditions. Greens will kill your score here if your speed is off. Very cool clubhouse with friendly staff. Handful of very picturesque holes. Plays incredibly different going towards and away from the clubhouse with the coastal wind.

I played here in the winter - probably a mistake given the main draw to the course is the landscaping. Solid resort track but would only go back in-season.

Challenging Dye track in a beautiful private neighborhood. Friendly staff, solid practice areas. Food is subpar but there’s a great view of the course from the restaurant.

The toughest course I’ve played, but the greens were spectacular. Gil Hanse crushed it on this design, it was similar to some other Hanse courses I’ve played : Fields Ranch East, Rustic Canyon, Colonial CC. If you miss your approach shot you’re staring at double bogey.

Really fun for what it is. Super short. Really meant for beginners but actually makes you hit some shots on some holes. For the price you really cant beat it

Course conditions are a work in progress but solid overall. Tricky greens and lots of amazing views. Tucked inside a private neighborhood with friendly people and laid back environment.

Great course in great condition. Amazing greens. Pace was perfect, no waiting. Practice areas are pretty terrible, mats only range with hard yellow balls and one tiny putting and chipping green.
