What to Expect

When playing at Willow Glen, expect a friendly yet tactical round that encourages thoughtful club selection. The layout includes some tricky doglegs and water features that could intimidate higher handicappers, so strategic course management is key. A mid-to-high handicap range will find this course enjoyable, but the more skilled players will appreciate the challenge it presents. Be ready for varying green speeds due to the Bermuda grass, and watch out for those challenging pin placements on undulating greens. A good day here will require careful consideration on every shot, but the rewards are definitely worth it.
