I played here this last Saturday, using a Teeoff.com voucher. I think I paid about $40, including cart and range balls. Weather wise, it was on the cool and breezy side. Lots of sun and about 60 degrees with a steady 15 mph breeze. The course had aerated greens as of April 17, so it's been more than a couple of weeks. The greens have not yet healed completely but are very close. They told us it was cart path only because they were trying to get the turf to come back. Our group included a couple of locals and we did not really adhere to the cart path only request. I did not see a big deal here, as there were no areas that were overly wet.

Pace of play was about 3.5 hours.

Greens rolled good enough. Because they weren't healed from the aerification, it was slightly bumpy at times. The speed was good; fast but not too fast. Maybe rolling at about a 10.

Fairways were good. Not a lot of problems with tight lies or bare ground; however, they could establish a thicker turf with some more irrigation. We were told that they did chemically treat the turf for weeds, so don't lick your balls.

Rough was deep in some spots. I noticed some areas of clover which made it hard to find a ball because of all the white flowers. The further you got from the fairways the worse the conditions. It could be deep rough, weeds, or dirt. Outside of that you are in the desert.

Tees were all level and fairly nice. There was adequate coverage of turf, not too many divots and mostly easy to place a tee.

Bunkers were just okay. Some had small rocks, many were wet and looked hard, but for the most part they did play okay. I was in a couple and I had little problem getting out.

Overall, for the price, I was happy. The pace of play was great and I got out for around $40. I know they do have decent food, but I opted to head back home after the round. I would go back for the low price. If there were no discount, my choice in the area would be Rancho Vista.
