Geese fight

After the rain, the course was in terrible shape. Appears there are not enough maintenance people to adequately take care of the course. Male geese are protecting their nesting egg-laying mates. They actually attacked the cart by dive-bombing it and then came dangerously close chasing the cadrt while hissing and showing their sharp teeth. Scary stuff.

I like the diversity of this golf course!

I find it hard to score great on this course even though I’m not the greatest player in the world. It’s some cool and challenging par 3 holes and some par 4’s, but I like coming back and I’m doing my best ;-)
The course it’s very walkable and usually takes about 3 1/2 hours to play this par 61 course.
I will be back!

Needs Work

This place has been going downhill for years. Keeps getting worse all the time. Tee boxes are always beat up or hard as a rock. Sand traps are rocks, not sand. Dry and mud spots all over, no consistency in the fairways and rough. Greens way to slow. Bathrooms on front nine closed (again). Bar closed, pro shop closed, snack bar closed at 4pm. Just a dump really.

Good Bang for the Buck

Even though it’s a parr 61 course it offers great challenging holes. Unfortunately we were backed up by two groups ahead of us, so the pace of play was not to our liking. Course needs a little TLC but other than that experience was great

Greens need work

The speed of the greens was inconsistent, which made them difficult to putt.

Usual round at Vista. Fair conditions all around. Get out there mid week and you can get it in pretty quickly. Not a lot of public options in the area. Glad this is an option.

REALLY need COURSE Marshall

I would have given this course a 5-star rating all the way around and recommended the course to others EXCEPT for the pace of play. This course should NOT take 5-hours to play. Two groups ahead of us was a 5-some. The group ahead of us was a 5-some who somehow picked up two kids under ten at the turn. They let the kids drive the cart AND hit balls AND putt. One guy kept leaving his clubs at every hole which kept us from hitting because he had to keep coming back up the fairway. Two guys in the group could barely play and received “coaching” even on the green. Five strokes out of the sand trap is ridiculous. A Marshal could have shut this down.

In all fairness, the course landscaping, greens, concrete work, tee boxes, and fairways have improved GREATLY. Get a Marshall out there!
