Played here Labor Day weekend 2009. Driving Range was spectacular. When you're on the driving range, you're hitting into a miniature mountain. A forecaddie was required for our round. Played on the Ocean South course. It was nice mix of trees, plateaus, and ocean side holes. Signature hole is the 18th hole which consists of three different plateaus (Tee box,... more

We golfed Pelican Hill mid September. We had a 2:35 tee off and only finished 16 holes because it got too dark. I saw carts with 3:30 and later tee times. It is crazy they let people tee off and don't tell them to only expect to get in 16 or fewer holes. There are head lights on the carts... more

Played both courses on recent trip. South course beautifully landscaped, mostly down in the canyons, not as many views of ocean, but still wonderful. Then played Ocean North...wow...breathtaking.

Just played the North Course @ Pelican Hill. The overall experience was terrific. The course is a great Fazio design which plays fair with generous fairways but with lots of canyons hungry for your balls. The greens could a been better (faster).

The golf was good but highly overrated - a real snob shop - if you want to waste upwards of $1,500 for a foursome for the day by all means come here. Practice facility was mats in mud, and putting green was pathetic. Golf course was nice but not worth the hassle of the attitude and environment. more
