In summary

Shorecliffs Golf Club is appreciated for its challenging layout, scenic coastal setting, and welcoming atmosphere, with recent renovations to the clubhouse enhancing the overall experience. The staff is often praised for their friendliness and helpfulness, and the course offers a good variety of holes, particularly the par 3s. However, some visitors have noted issues with course maintenance, including worn tee boxes and fairways, and feel that the pricing may not always reflect the course's condition.

Good value for the price. Green speeds are fairly fast, but the undulation is not too severe, so putting is manageable. Tee boxes were in rough shape, with quite a few worn and poorly repaired spots. Due to recent rain, there were several unplayable areas on the fairways, and the course features many shorter par 4s overall. Compared to Riverview Golf Course at a similar price point, this course is shorter but offers more variety in layout, which makes it the better option in my opinion.

We had a great round at Shorecliffs on Friday. We hopped on the simulator for a few warm up swings and closest to the pin contest then heading out for a 1:10 tee time. Weather was perfect and the course was in good shape. Accuracy off the tee is the key here. Greens had been aerified a couple weeks ago, but were in great condition and rolling nicely. Staff took great care of us as usual. Can’t wait to play again.

Very narrow, sloped holes and challenging course. Im a 15 handicap and lost about 2 sleeves of balls thru 18. First time playing this course, decided to go on a Monday morning, the field crews were out watering the greens so it made them quite slow but playable. Pro shop (Ed) was super friendly and made my first time memorable, I will definitely be back with my buddies. Nice little hidden gem in south oc. The food was great as well!!

I had the pleasure of playing Shorecliffs Golf Club back in October and was thoroughly impressed. The course itself is a unique blend of challenge and beauty, winding its way through houses and earning its nickname "The Ditch" thanks to the strategic bunkering and elevation changes. Despite a few well-worn tee boxes, the layout was well-maintained and offered a super friendly experience, catering to golfers of all skill levels. I'm particularly excited to see how the new hole will integrate into the course! The brand new clubhouse was a delight, boasting a clean and modern atmosphere with hel…

I’d give this course negative stars if I could. The pins are in PREPOSTEROUS locations, and have been cut maybe weeks ago? The course is in generally rough shape, it’s overpriced, and the layout is insane. Par 37 on the front with back to back par 5’s on 2 and 3. This course is worth maybe $40/18, not walkable, and an overall very frustrating experience for anyone who isn’t new to golf. I have played here twice, and would not consider coming back other than for the simulator/clubhouse, which appears fun. Attached is a picture of probably the most picturesque hole, but overall condition left a…

This review is for 501 restaurant, not the golf course. This is to give accolades to a lovely, hard working young lady, Alexandra, who has worked there for as long as I've been eating there...3 years. I've dined at the restaurant on several days and evenings, solo and with others and always leave feeling appreciated and respected. Plain and simple, Alex makes 501 restaurant worth visiting. I've watched her work harder than anyone on that property. She is so attentive. My career is in hospitality and I honestly thought this young lady, Alex, was the General manager. The manner which she handles…

Great course, great experience, not an expensive experience! I highly recommend this course for it's great service and recent renovations both in the club house and on the course. Play it before they figure out that they should raise the rates.

This course is transforming and will be a 4 Star in no time. The new clubhouse is a beauty. The pro shop is a little thin regarding the products they have available. The greens are still a little thin but improving. The tee boxes and fairways are in great shape. This is a course that really rewards familiarity, so play it often.

This place is awesome it might not be in the best condition but it’s not about the destination but the journey. I have had some of my best golf memories here and I would recommend anyone to go here and have a blast it’s harder than it may seem.

The course is absolutely horrendous. Do not play here! They charge 50 something dollars when it should be 25 max. The course is in horrible condition. Seems like they put all their money into a clubhouse and forgot about the golf course. I will never come back here, ever! Do yourself a favor and don’t come.

I've not golfed there yet but the clubhouse is spectacular! The ambiance is so nice, the food is delicious (very large servings), the wine list is diverse, and the service is awesome! I've been here for events before but never for dinner. We chose to go here over another place... I'm glad we did!

In terrible shape. Holes are boring. Terribly overpriced. Would recommend playing somewhere else, or skipping golf that day all together. Tee boxes are worse than the rough, and fairways are worse than that.
