4/5 stars consistently

MT always gets a yearly visit from me. I play all over the county from Fallbrook, Torrey Pines, Chula Vista.. For the Friday morning that I played , again 4/5 stars. Yes there are bare spots in the fairways and the rough can be frustrating but the greens were in good shape and rolling consistent. The value is Par for the course teetering at birdie level. MT is challenging enough to be fun and you can't beat the scenic Lake Murray on the back 9. The missing star.. food and beverage cart never made an appearance. It was July, lots of wet muddy collection areas on cart paths and around the greens. I'm still going to come back and visit this old friend.

you should include riding price instead of walking price as this course is built on the side of a hill and is hard to walk

Don’t Play Here

Lost balls that were 3 feet from the cart path. Can barely tell the fairway from the rough. Some tee boxes were legitimately just dirt/sand. Used to play here consistently 3 or 4 years ago and it wasn’t the best, but it was playable and was cheaper. In its current condition, it should not even be considered for the price it’s at. Do not play here.

Good distance and course setup

We got over here on a vacation and the yardage on holes varied which was nice with the course in good maintenance. Very friendly cart girl and an observant ambassador roaming the course. I'd recommend if you wanted a relaxed experience but not so much if you are competitive and wanting to get a fast round of golf.

If you ‘must’ play, MT is an option

Not the best option, but it exists. Course has been in rough condition, starting at hole one, if you go right at all off the tee you can guarantee you’ll lose a ball in not trimmed grass.. this trend continues on almost every hole. An empty old cup hole on green 8 that never got filled, weeds in bunkers, punched sandy greens right now… yet still come back for some reason? If you want a cheap last minute round it’s an option, just usually leave wondering why you came back

Buy a lawnmower

Cut the grass!!! Not a tough concept. Been playing at this course for 50 years. Just about the worst I’ve ever seen the conditions. Take some pride in your course boys.

The worse condition i have ever seen at MT

Terrible shape, charged too much when you have punched greens and sanded, should have advised and discounted the round.

Rough course conditions

The course is in rough shape. Really overgrown rough, limbs down, greens just got aerated. Any balls on the fringe get swallowed by 6" of clover and crap grass. Not so good for $72.00

Poor Upkeep and Maintenance of the course

Went with a few buddies and the course was so poorly maintained, it was incredibly difficult to enjoy. Greens covered in sand. Grass clippings in piles all over the course. Tall grass as far as the eye could see on the fairway and especially in the rough. Fallen trees and tree branches. We were all surprised and disappointed, literally the worst maintained course I have ever played. I feel bad because they blame staffing issues, but I wanted to leave an honest review. This used to be a pretty reliable course. But after yesterday… Don’t waste your money here. I know I won’t be back until this is corrected.
