Boulder Oaks Golf Club - Escondido

A lot more bad to say than good here. I really wanted to like this course coming in and was mentally prepared for the conditions to be mediocre but it’s just disappointing. If you’re a decent golfer and want to try and play a average round you take even semi serious then don’t come here. If you’re new to golf then I wouldn’t recommend coming here either. It’s in too bad of shape to have any chance at being a normal round and way too narrow with so many blind shots that don’t have the maintenance to accommodate a new golfers game. If you’re landing in the ideal spots every time you can occasionally find decent grass to play off of. Some random greens are in great shape but most are pretty beat up. Traps look like they exist but are just weeds, overgrown grass and hard dirt. So many houses and tee boxes are too close and have no netting or protection making it pretty dangerous.Everything is overgrown. Some benches have bushes covering them. Cart paths have overgrown shrubs blocking the path. Mixed dirt and cement that isn’t groomed can cause a pretty jarring ride and catch you by surprise.I played weekday morning so it was very open and fast. Didn’t have the wait times mentioned in other reviews. If it did I wouldn’t have been able to wait it out for this course.Many people mention the price as a plus which is true but you can pay just a little more at a number of courses close by that will give you a much more enjoyable round, beginner or experienced.

Tee time was 8am and it was 10:49 and we are still on the 8th tee box waiting to tee off, on pace for over a 6.5 hour round. So we decided to call it a day and leave. Starter asked why we 're done and when we told him the pace we were on he said yea that 's the way it is everywhere, I 've been in the industry since I was 16. As he said that there was already a line at the first hole 4 groups deep. Bad look when the starter has no issue with your round being over 6.5 hours. Course conditions aren 't great which is expected based on the price so no issue there, greens are better than fairways. I will never be back based on the starters comments alone.

Maybe it's 100% on me to not go on a Friday afternoon when it rained pretty hard Monday through Wednesday, but at the same time, I wish they would have at least informed people who are booking, or just straight up not let people play at all, considering most of the holes were completely unmaintained.Hit a perfect shot a couple hundred yards down the middle of the fairway? Well too bad, your ball is completely lost in a thicket of clovers and weeds a foot or two tall. Lost 8 balls that were all on or close to the fairway, and had a horrible time. Most likely never going back. I think they should give everyone playing today a refund.

Do not play at this course. I drove 45 minutes to play here only to find out they space their teetimes out by eight minutes. The course is covered in dirt and crabgrass. They had no one as a starter. They were backed up an hour and a half for each teatime. Zero stars if I could. We didn’t even play the round. We ask for a refund and left immediately after waiting 30 minutes at the first tee box with another 4 groups ahead of us.

This golf course is the worst place I've ever played. The course design is very dangerous, so the ball flies a lot from the next hole, and there are too many blind courses to see. In addition, the cart path is not properly equipped, there is no rough, and it is all weeds. There is no grass on the fairway and it is bare and ground. It was the worst golf course I wanted to quit golf.
