7/16/26- Scholl Canyon 8:00AM. Parking lot packed, range was full, and the tennis academy was booming. The course was not that full, but still a little slow for the morning. Scholl Canyon is very dry right now and the fairways are browning. The greens are in really good shape and are holding nicely. The sand needs some love, and the tee boxes are at times not level. For $40 to ride and much less to walk, this course has some great views, and some challenging holes. I always enjoy playing here, and wish I lived a little closer.

If you are looking for a quick 18 with some super short par 3's and short par 4's this is it!

Starter Nick put me on :20min early not long after the mens club cleared. This was welcomed as I figured the heat was near. Had'nt been here in possibly a year and really didn't know what to epect, no recent reviews. First 3 holes I carded par, then skipped the 4th hole asit was playing as a short par 3 due to tee box(s) repairs etc. The 3 some just finishing let me play thru o... » More

Starter Nick put me on :20min early not long after the mens club cleared. This was welcomed as I figured the heat was near. Had'nt been here in possibly a year and really didn't know what to epect, no recent reviews. First 3 holes I carded par, then skipped the 4th hole asit was playing as a short par 3 due to tee box(s) repairs etc. The 3 some just finishing let me play thru only soon to run into the last of the mens club. Pace of play now was effecting my game, ego back in box. Conditions are good. Some thin areas in landing zones but playable, greens soft rolling better than fair but I see a mixture of grasses on the dance floor. Rough, well it can be thick! Sand all nice white quartz and plays very fair. Tee boxes are not as healthy as you might expect. Nice cart path system with pit stops along the way, water hazards, waterfalls, and probably 6 different tunnels you pass thru traveling between tees. Carts have the best GPS system (geo fencing enforced) fitted w/side mounted cooler ice provided at starter desk. Great pro shop and staff, very nice bar/resturant and very nice outdoor patio with elevated view of #9 tee and green. I hesitate to report anything too negative here but if I touch on this subject maybe the "Mens Club" will notice. I never leave my cart 30-40 yards in front of the green area chip/pitch-up walk up everybody putt out then strut back down to cart and drive off! S..T, all 4 guys riding single in nice custom carts do this constantly! Drive around to the side parallel to pin walk down like everybody else to your ball do your business and be ready to putt out! Just stinks of selfish arrogoant behavior, fortunately the draft Modelo helped wash that memory away. By the time I got bact to the parking lot my truck thermometer read 108 ! For me probably wait till Fall to settle in and the heat to calm down before returning. Almost forgot the Ivy has a decent covered driving range and near by small practice green. Cost me $70.00 for 18/single cart and small bucket. Enjoy.

Played yesterday on their Wednesday all day $34 w cart promo. And add in that it was National Hot Dog day even better.

Tee boxes clean and level.

Wide fairways with good lies and decent rollout all round.

Played yesterday on their Wednesday all day $34 w cart promo. And add in that it was National Hot Dog day even better.

Tee boxes clean and level.

Wide fairways with good lies and decent rollout all round.

Rough was dry so it was playable but with wide fairways easy to stay out of. Besides you have wine fields, water and some OB to deal with if you really get wild.

Traps were all in good shape and I was fortunate to not be any.

Greens are good size, undulating and hold shots well and release as well. No issues with chipping and putting all round.

Great mixture of 3's 4's and 5's to challenge you for 18 holes.

Other than being a bit warm the course is in a beautiful location with great views of Napa valley W to Marin and N to Santa Rosa.

Had some beer and some great hot dogs with many various toppings to end the day.

With the forecast of 90+ degree temperatures, San Clemente was the logical choice. Coupled with the most recent review, was excited to get back out here. As expected, the course is in really nice condition right now, particularly the greens. Truth is, nothing to complain about - course is overall in great shape.

With the forecast of 90+ degree temperatures, San Clemente was the logical choice. Coupled with the most recent review, was excited to get back out here. As expected, the course is in really nice condition right now, particularly the greens. Truth is, nothing to complain about - course is overall in great shape. The only downside is how much the rates have increased since the last time I played here, but it's 2026 and South Orange County, so should be grateful it was as reasonable as it was. Compared to everywhere else, it's a bargain.

Played here to wait out the traffic before the ride home. Almost had buyer's remorse. All fivesomes and we were on a 3-hour pace for 9 holes. Luckily things picked up and it was only 2:40 Ish.

Solid locals course all around. Tees, fairways, greens all good. Wasn't in any bunkers but they looked playable if a little thin. Ended up very impressed with this course. It's a full nine-hole par 36 layout with some tough holes (448 par 4) and some easier ones. $15 to walk this one seems like a steal another $12 to ride, but very walkable. Played with 4 locals who play here all the time and had a lot of fun. I think the restaurant just recently opened for business. Well worth it if you don't have time for a full 18
