This was the home course of Richard Nixon while he was President. It is narrow, and the greens are small, so you need straight and accurate shots if you hope to shoot a low score. This facility is planning to develop a resort hotel and time-share properties in the future. Joe Williams served as superintendent when he designed the course in the 1960's.

Bad looking course, Sep 25, 2005

reviewer: Harry from San Diego

There are so many eyesores on this course that it really detracts from the enjoyment of playing there. They ought to take a look around and fix this place up.

General management's a disaster, Sep 23, 2005

reviewer: Unfortunate Nearby Resident from San Clemente, CA

We're one of the residents that unfortunately lives alongside this sad-ass course. Its management has no concept of what the term "good neighbor" might mean. The GM, Phil Vigil, maintains a number of eyesores that bother residents and no doubt the golfers as well. Simply put, it's an ugly course from many angles. Vigil promises to eliminate the problems, but that's all he does, promises. When you try to complain he just blows you off or won't even answer your phone calls. What a jerk! Also, he takes no responsibility whatsoever for any of the damage or injury his customers might accidently inflict upon upon people riding or walking past or living adjacent to their property. He leaves it to the golfers and their victims to argue out their differences, so expect to get into a beef with some local lunatic if you do anything out of the ordinary. That'll ruin your golf outing, I guarantee you! The parent company of this course is Pacific Golf Enterprises, which also owns a couple of other venues in Southern California, so be forewarned and beware! You'd be better off taking your business anywhere else but here
