Slooooow Play…
Course condition is ok. The issue is always the same. It’s simply not managed well at all. Zero efforts to instill pace of play expectations. Constantly waiting on every shot…. Ridiculous. It’s always the same out there…

Great condition and beauty for a muni course.
Not going to blow your socks off, but very high quality for the price you pay if you go at the right time.

Great course, only got to play 9- lost daylight.
Tee off should have only sold a 9 hole for this- I bought 18 holes, only got to play 9. My mistake in the end, but would have been smart to just sell 9 holes rather than 18 at a rate.

First time playing the course on our last overnight stay in Santa Barbara. Greens were immaculate and fast (10-11 on stimpmeter). Fairways were in very good shape as were the bunkers. Several holes were challenging with steep hills and valleys and uneven lies. Scenery was very nice of the hills. Very enjoyable round of golf, would play again for sure.

Overpriced
Paid $60 for 9 holes. Greens were in solid condition. But way overpriced for a public course.
