The word on the course.
How golfers talk about it, summarized from public reviews. Their opinions, not our scoring.
Three nines by Ted Robinson Sr. and Jr. winding through Mission Valley with ponds, mature trees and the San Diego trolley crossing the property. Golfers like the creative use of a tight urban site and the very walkable terrain, but split on whether the experience matches the premium asking price.
Consistently praised
- Flat, easy-to-walk layout with three distinct nines that mix up the round.
- Pond and tree-lined holes feel surprisingly scenic for an urban hotel-circle site.
Worth knowing
- Reviewers commonly say the layout is fine but average for the rate, with better options at similar prices.
Golfers recommend
- Walk it if you can; the routing is built for it.
- Pair the Mission and Friars nines for the more talked-about combo.
