I probably heard too many good things about this in the past from others and ended up disappointed. It is not a bad course, but not very memorable besides a couple holes. The fairways are good in parts and thin in parts. Rough is very different among spots. Near the hole it is very tall and thick, like Torrey Pines, but around the fairway, it can be very thin and bare in spots. Bunkers are ok. Tee boxes are ok as well, but sometimes have to tee it up 2 or 3 times as there are holes in the tee boxes. Greens are ok, and would be better, but many people do not repair their own marks. In fact, there are lots of unfixed divots and unraked bunkers around the course. You can't fault the course, as that is their clients fault. I would never pay the rack rate of 3 digits for this course, as there are so many others I would go for first, and a few local muni's that I'd rather play. Even the 2 for 1 deal was pushing if for me. I won't be back here. It did not live up to the height.

Played in the early evening on Wednesday, 7/29/09 on a clear, sunny day with only light breezes. Course was in very good shape, drier that I’m used to here, so greens were a little firmer and fairways had more bounce than I expected. Greens were in very good condition, holding shots and rolling smoothly at medium-fast speed. Fairways were dry and lies were a little tight. Rough around the greens was fairly deep and tricky to escape from – you didn’t have to be far off the green to be in trouble. Some tee boxes were obviously uneven. Play wasn’t as quick as I hoped – got behind a slow twosome of junior girls, finished 15 holes in 3 hours. Cart GPS just basic distances and not always helpful. No cart girl or ranger at this time of day. Morning fees here are too high, but super twilight rate of $50 is a good deal for this quality and challenge. Recommended.

I played in a scramble tournament we had a great time. The course was in great condition. The tee boxes were in good shape. The fairways were green with a couple of brown spots. The greens were rolling nicely. Overall, it was a great track and I'd play it again for sure.

Played on a 2-for-1, AND they are running a complimentary same day replay right now so be sure to ask when finishing 18. Conditions were ok, not spectacular if paying full rate, but solid. Pace of play was great, though, finishing 27 holes (on replay) with 20 min lunch break in just over 6 hours. I have always been torn about this course, but it does make for a fun round. I just wish they would lower the weekend rate to the $100-$110 range.

Strawberry Farm has its attitude problem. They don't seem to care about the business. I was hopping that would change after the ownership change. But not much! Their twilight or super twilight always later than other courses. And they try to sell this membership program to make golfer believe how good the deal is but actually a rip-off. last two times I played there, green condition did not match the green fee at all! Course layout is actually good, hole #10 worth picture taking. But too bad with such poor management and attitude problem, I don't think my group will play there any more!

Finish 18 holes in 4 hours and 10 min. today.

I don't know why I spend $160 to play here !
The green fee only worth $20..............
Never play here again !!!!!!
Maybe that's the reason nobady play here now.

Played early this morning due to a tournament that was scheduled a little later in the morning. The overall condition of the course was good. Pitchmarks on the greens were a bit of an issue; it almost seemed like no one was fixing their marks, something that I would expect from a place that charges $100+ to play there. Carts were rarely allowed anywhere but the cart path which was annoying because you couldn't get an accurate yardage to the green.

Overall the course is nice, however it's definitely not worth paying over $80 to play and most certainly is no where near worth paying their weekend rates ($160). If you absolutely have to spend that kind of money than you would be better off driving 4 miles down the street to Oak Creek.

P.S. The waterfall by the 18th green looks very cool from afar, the odor however was terrible. I found myself trying to hold my breath for as long as I could anywhere around the green.

I played today, Saturday for $80 w/ membership.
When I played a few weekes ago Tuesday, they said that entire course is kept from taking cart in the fairway on Mon. & Tue. only.
However, even on Saturday, only a few holes allow to go in the fairway w/ cart.
I rather walk than drive my cart only to the cartpath.

Another nonsense is that they allow 5 some out...
Gosh, paying $100 green fee, I will never want to follow 5 some ahead of me.
That is just not acceptable.

Except above complaints, the condition of green, fairway was good.

I can name 10 muni course under $60 dollars that were in better condition and lay out then this place. Fairways were peppered with un-repaired divots. Plus, a lot of dry areas. I also don't like courses with a lot of par 3 1/2's (320 - 330 yards par 4) which they had at least 4. Add to the "experience", the pace was also extremely slow, the 4some in front of us was a hole behind. We got done in over 5 hours. I played here about 8 years ago when they first opened, and thought it was overpriced. Apparently nothing has changed.
