Maderas Golf Club

About
Maderas Golf Club is one of San Diego's most popular courses. Although it is less than an hour from Torrey Pines, it has a stunning landscape and challenging design that rivals that of the famed seaside course. Maderas may not have the ocean views, but its beautiful landscape provides just as much scenery. Nestled inland amongst rolling hills, the golf course weaves through rocky cliffs and outcroppings. There are mature trees throughout as well as a meandering creek and over forty acres of native wildflowers. There are three sparkling lakes and five waterfalls that come into play on the course. The demanding layout features difficult greens that are large and lightning fast. Several tricky uphill and downhill lies can be found throughout Maderas Golf Club thanks to the hilly terrain.

Maderas
Played the Blues (73.6/137/6670) using Forelinx. Matched up with Jeff, first out playing at a leisurely pace of 4 1/2 hours after a frost delay of 90 minutes. The weather warmed up and was very pleasant by the end of the round.
2nd time playing here, liked the layout, design and conditions even more than the first visit, when I thought things were outstanding.
Hilly course with several tees a good distance from the last green, this would be a very challenging to walk. You cannot get off the beaten path on this layout or your ball is gone and you are adding penalty strokes. However, most fairway landing areas are generous in size, not a super tight course.
The tees were lush overall, just a few par 3's needed divot attention.
The fairways were excellent and played nice.
The rough had good coverage and could be penal.
The traps were immaculate and played well.
The greens are large, undulating and many have tiers. You could easily have a 100+ foot putt on multiple greens on this course. They putted medium fast, smooth and were firm. VERY nice!
The layout, design, difficulty and especially the conditions were all well above average. Many very high end homes are high up on hills looking down on the course, the scenery and the views were both stimulating.
The customer service was excellent, especially Daniel, an Assistant Pro in the Pro Shop. Excellent practice facility that is included with the golf price. Definitely recommended, especially if you can get a deal.
Maderas Turkey Watch
Beautiful course with excellent views. Extremely challenging, with well place bunkers, native areas and water. Greens were in very good shape with lots of contours. Main suggestion would be to add at least one tee box. Goes from 6350 to 5450. Vast majority of golfers need something in between. Pace little slow, mostly lots of long walks from cart to green. Turkeys, huge amount of Turkeys cruising around
No title
Very nice golf course had all the amenities that you would need from a driving range putting and shipping areas. Grass wasn’t quite as green as it could’ve been, but it was very nice. I was lucky to have a person playing with me that had course knowledge otherwise it would’ve been a less enjoyable experience just because it is a very compact course And is a bit difficult with targets and hazards that it was beneficial that he pointed out to me.
Punched greens
I wish we were informed ahead of time that the greens were just punched.
This made a huge difference as they were punched just 4 days before we played.
We should have been made aware of this before we booked our tee time.
Not happy
hilly
IMO, course was in overall good shape. Greens rolled well @ 10.5-11. Hilly track, which i knew. On the pricey side, so may want to go else where.

Wonderful course
The course was in great shape. Fairways well maintained. Greens were fast. The staff was friendly and helpful.
