This course is a mile from work and I just needed to play a round. For $15 I figured whatever it’s the same as a bucket. Well it should not be classified as a course. Mostly dirt with patches of grass. However the greens were not that bad. Seems to be the only thing they can keep alive. Not recommended unless you are really jonezing for a round and are close by.

Played Coyote Hills on 11/5. Fun layout and good customer service. First time getting to use the all-in Senior deal which is nice.

Conditions leave me shaking my head though. Greens are pretty good, a little shaggy but still roll pretty well. But with the shaggy, footprints are a problem.

I hate the fairways. Yes, it has grass on it, but they are hard as rocks. It is like hitting off the worst possible range mats. And I still hit 16 GIRs, but maybe only because I practice on awful range mats a lot.

Tee boxes are pretty bad. Just not enough grass at all. Looks like they have done some recent maintenance, so maybe it will improve.

Sand traps look very nice, but I was in 2, and both times there was about 1/2" of nice sand and then it bottomed out

I'll give it a slight recommendation. Fun course to play, but enough issues to make me hesitate.

Played this morning. Great to have early light to begin playing early. Course is in nice shape at the moment after green aeration and tee box aeration. Both of them are just fine. The greens are nice and firm and speedy but will accept nice high shots just fine. Fairways are nice and clean and give good roll out and lies. Bunker work has improved the playability of the traps an... » More

The greens are nice and firm and speedy but will accept nice high shots just fine. Fairways are nice and clean and give good roll out and lies. Bunker work has improved the playability of the traps and they all have new sand in them now. But we still need more players to rake them? Great customer service at all levels. Just wish they would open the resaurant on Mondays/Tuesdays for more than just beverage service and premade sandwiches.

Out walking the blues with my buddy Steve 11/4/24 for his last round before he heads back to the Midwest. Some of the friendliest staff in socal at Olivas. We had windy conditions up to 2 clubs for most of the day which is almost the norm here in the afternoon.

Out walking the blues with my buddy Steve 11/4/24 for his last round before he heads back to the Midwest. Some of the friendliest staff in socal at Olivas. We had windy conditions up to 2 clubs for most of the day which is almost the norm here in the afternoon. Our POP behind the senior men's club was around 4 hrs 20 minutes catching them on hole 6 and waiting on them most of the day. The course for the 1st week in November was in good shape with tighter padded lush fairways with more roll to them7.5/10, level and nicely lush tee boxes 7.5/10, mostly lush fairway rough 7.5/10 and greens about a month coming out of maintenance that rolled decent but we're not as smooth as they usually are rated 7/10. Was in 3 greenside bunkers that were in beautiful shape with nice beach sand. Rated 8/10.

Lakes still full of water, beautiful maintained course that is transitioning into winter golf. Fantastic layout. Huge undulating greens where pin placements can be brutal. Highly recommended!

Can't believe it has almost been a year since I last played Goat Hill. Every time I play here I am blown away by how much things continue to improve. Nice carts with GPS, expended pro shop, all the holes marked well, to lessen the confusion as to where to go. They punched greens in mid-October, and they rolled very true and had decent pace, quicker than expected. Just everythin... » More

Can't believe it has almost been a year since I last played Goat Hill. Every time I play here I am blown away by how much things continue to improve. Nice carts with GPS, expended pro shop, all the holes marked well, to lessen the confusion as to where to go. They punched greens in mid-October, and they rolled very true and had decent pace, quicker than expected. Just everything about this place is an upgrade from just a year ago. But of course, this comes with a price. It is no longer cheap to play here, but at least you can take solace knowing the money is being placed back into the golf course. If you have never played, I strongly recommend it.
