Eagle Crest Golf Club is routed through the scenic San Pasqual Valley. Its secluded location and challenging layout have made Eagle Crest one of San Diego's best-kept secrets. The beautiful layout incorporates cascading waterfalls and eight lakes along with colorful wildflowers and rolling green hills. The diverse golf course is a shot maker's layout that is player friendly enough to appeal to a wide range of skill levels. It measures to a manageable 6,417 yards, but it still offers plenty of challenges. In addition to the water hazards, pristine white sand bunkers add a stark contrast to the lush greens. The golf course is narrow, especially on the front nine, which is tighter and has more tree-lined fairways. The bank nine opens up much more. Eagle Crest Golf Club rewards accuracy and thoughtful strategy but it's not overly punishing for the high handicapper.

Eagle Crest Golf Club

Eagle Crest is a very fun and challenging golf course and used to be in great shape but sadly that was back in the 1990's. I play the course frequently but it's now it's apparent the owners could care less about the product they put out. The course has deteriorated even more so the past few months. I don't know if that has anything to do with Troon Golf taking over but more so because the owners are too cheap to buy or lease the proper equipment to maintain a golf course. I just played the course yesterday (7/12/21) and it appeared like they are doing no maintenance at all. They have weeds growing around most bunkers aka dirt traps. Two foot tall weeds growing in the middle of several fairways and greens that rolled about 5 or 6 on the stimpmeter. I haven't played on greens that slow for about 40-50 years. They are rarely changing hole placements now and they have no clue on where to place tee markers. Most of the tees are not level but they'll place the markers where you don't even have a level lie to tee the ball. The superintendent and his crew must know nothing about golf at all based on the way they set the course up. These owners should just sell the course to someone who actually knows something about golf and cares about putting out a good product. The owners and superintendent should be ashamed with the condition of the course but obviously they have no problem having it look like a cow pasture. If the greens were good I would still support the course even with all the weeds growing everywhere and some barren fairways but as it is now they'll have to pay me to play the course. I would rather go to Native Oaks up the road and pay 50% more to play a much better conditioned course. Troon took over Native Oaks (formerly Woods Valley GC) a few months ago so we'll see if the course condition suffers there as well. Eagle Crest could be so good. It's too bad the owners don't feel the same way.

PS. to the owners...don't bother replying with this weak response: "Thanks for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear we disappointed you. Your comments will be shared with the rest of the team." If you were actually sorry you would invest the money it takes to put out a good product!
