“The layout has many holes that will stick with you, namely the 8th, 9th, 10th, 15th, 16th, and 17th. Conditioning is usually top-notch after recently (2016) re-sodding the rough with Bermuda. The course is more difficult than at first glance. Recent U.S. Open Sectional qualifiers have had scoring averages over par. Close to the ocean, but no views of the water as the course sits down in the canyons. There are numerous holes with OB left and right as they wind through the canyons - some of the holes have homes in play. Try not to ding the Ferraris in the parking lot!"

“Ambiance of this country club is very stuffy, and not too friendly. Was definitely not a place I wanted to stay after for the 19TH hole or to grab some lunch"
