Bonita Golf Course

$72 dollars and every other green had massive chunks taken out, no ball washer station and even no yardages at the tee boxes. How is this place more expensive than Balboa? I asked a lot of the regulars if it typically takes 5 hours to finish the 18, they said yes. LONG day of waiting at the tee box. It gets a star for layout though. The layout is a good time with a lot of circling back to the club house and snack shack.

Bonita Golf Course is in great condition for August on about 80% of the holes. The rest were still okay but some fairway damage. We really enjoyed it. The holes are mostly flat but there are still plenty of challenges. If we were not playing with regulars we would have gotten lost making our way from hole to hole. Not laid out or signed very well. But still fun. The green rolled quick and true and were in good shape. Around the outside of the course there is a hiking/walking trail, that had people riding horses. Great treat in the San Diego area for not too much money.

Bonita is arguably the best full size course in the south bay. For roughly $60ish full price or $40ish at twilight, I would say it is one of the best courses in San Diego at the price point. Have reasonable expectations, it may take longer than 4 hours to finish a round. The greens and fairways are occasionally a bit patchy. And sometimes you tee off 20 minutes late because of a back up. HOWEVER, the course and staff as a whole are well worth the money you pay, and the course is always a great time. Go and try it out, I highly recommend it.

Our home course. Great value for money here. Decent pace and well maintained. Restaurant is also a great stop for breakfast or lunch.

I love golfing here, it’s my preferred course even though I live 30 minutes away. Which says a lot! Great price and the greens are surprisingly well maintained for how busy they are!
