This is an UPDATED Review, played on Monday Jan. 14th 2008: This course was in the line of FIRE during the month of October 2007. There are areas around the golf course which were burned, did NOT see any structures or homes lost in the fires. :) To see a TOUR of the course, go to: http://www.EagleCrestGC.com/courseinfo/crsTour.php Very tight & narrow golf course located in Escondido (North of San Diego). This is a MUST play golf course, beautiful scenery, very playable but a challenge for the ladies too. There are certain holes which you need to negotiate properly otherwise you'll end up in the water hazards. Took a long time to play our round, a little over 5 hours for a Monday! The greens were punched 4 months ago & are in excellent condition, very smooth with some speed! The fairways are passable, more like hitting from low rough conditions, hard to tell where the fairway starts & the rough begins. The driving range length is very short, recommend hitting irons ONLY! Very nice LARGE practice putting green & chipping area. There are NO yardage books or GPS systems BUT ALL of the sprinklers are well marked with yardage distances. Brought along my Golf Logix to calculate yardages, very accurate. The sand bunkers are hard (Recent rains did not soften the texture), like hitting out of compacted DIRT. :( The course has recently marked many areas "ground under repair" which I attribute to the recent heavy rains. I expect this course to be in better condition in the next 2 months!
