Solid course
If you can get 18 holes in on a nice course in South OC on a Sunday afternoon. For $80. That’s unfortunately a great deal. Talega is in good shape. Best higher end course in area for the $.
Great layout but in bad condition
Fairways are trash right now. Greens are good. Bunkers have some sand and others impacted dirt. Tee boxes need to be cut. Pace of play was horrible, 5 hour round. There was a Marshall but they were just pumping groups off the tee. Way too many holes of three groups (one on tee, one in fairway and one on the green. Also, they don’t have GPS on the carts they have some very old tech that doesn’t help
you much other than what your rangefinder can provide.
Better Times Ahead
This has the foundation for a nice coarse but it needs an influx of cash to bring it back to what it could be. The greens are in very good shape but they are pretty slow. Fairways have a lot of invasive grass spots and some of the bunkers have some grass growing in them. Carts needed replaced a year or two ago but they do work. Just needs someone that cares and has the money to put into the place and the I would recommend because the coarse design is good.
Great course… but
Love this course and will continue to go. But last round was overbooked (had a line of people at tee boxes waiting to tee off) and our cart died on hole 7. Tried calling the pro shop and there was no answer so we pushed the cart for a decent bit until luckily the guy managing the carts came across us and dropped one off (he was absolutely fantastic).
Like I said, great course, but for the money I’d like to have a charged cart and not wait 15-20 minutes on a tee box.
Always a delighful set of challenges
I love this course - one of the very best for 100 miles around - full of fine challenges and in superb condition. The Hotdeal price was perfect.
FL Man misses home
As an occasional visitor to SoCal I try to ferret out good deals on quality courses, hidden gems if you will. That's a tall order in the Orange County realm. Talega was ok, greens were very nice and rolling sweetly, fairways desperately needed attention but to be fair they've received quite a bit of rain here in the last several weeks so the grounds crews have been at a disadvantage. The staff here are very welcoming and accommodating so that was much appreciated. Sadly, this course as it sits today is not a $100+ course, more like $60-70. But, to quote their past governor...it's Cal-ee-fornia, where goods and services are in line with the wages...high. Nice place to visit but as a native Floridian I'm looking forward to my home turf.
Great layout, slow play
Very fun course, front nine is simple and pretty easy, back nine has a very reachable par 5 along with some fun holes in the wilderness. Played my best round with a few birdies and an eagle on the 11th. Pace of play was a little rough, around 4:45, so slow but not crazy slow.
Horrible from beginning to end
Like a Tacoma it’s just wouldn’t quit. Punched greens with no alert on golfnow. Barley a discount on the cardinal sin they pulled on me. Starting on 10 and teeing off at 7 to play in 5 1/2 hours. Talega is barley worth it these days really shows how covid ruined golf course management. They really could not care about the golfers experience and the service that comes along with price TAG you have raised multiple times in the last 5 years. Played many times and never seen it hat bad So yeah suck it Talega. Be back soon. Lol
Disappointing Experience
We have played Talega many times. It is normally a good experience this past Sunday the 17th was not a good experience. We were only able to complete 12 holes in three hours and 35 minutes we waited on every hole. The course is in rough condition. Many of the sand traps are bare or they are overfilled. Many of the fairways are in very rough conditions. Boxes were also in rough conditions many of them uncut, additionally, there was no cart person and they did not open the halfway house. So it took forever we didn’t finish. There were no services and we had to stop but they had already closed the pro shop, so there was no recourse to ask for a rain check or credit for the rounds we played , very disappointing
Solid Course
Had a Christmas Ever tee time at 11am with awesome weather and hardly anyone on the course. Finished just shy of 3 1/2 hours with the course in great condition.
Although this course is one of my go-to courses, the increase in pricing has caused me to shy away from playing Talega as often and could find similar courses in the area that are priced lower; but if you are in a position where you have some extra cash to spend, this is an excellent option!
