The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
A 1921 William P. Bell layout that sits quietly in a Chula Vista neighborhood and is talked about almost entirely for its greens, which regulars compare to the slickest surfaces they have putted. The rest is an old-school, tree-lined, tightly packed routing with deep-faced bunkers and very little water.
Consistently praised
- Greens reviewers regularly call among the best and fastest in the state.
- An old-school tree-lined character with eucalyptus framing nearly every hole.
Worth knowing
- The layout itself is compact and undramatic; the appeal is the putting surfaces, not the views.
Golfers recommend
- Lag putt aggressively; downhill putts get away fast.
- Take an extra club into greens guarded by the deep-faced traps.
