This review is for their wedding venue, not the golf course itself…read more This was one of our top contenders thanks to the expansive space and strong overall value. Chelsea was excellent throughout the tour and provided a thorough walkthrough of the venue and its services. =PROS= *The drive into the venue is scenic, secluded, and feels removed from the city *Ample paved parking for guests *Huge bridal suite that included a private bathroom and was accessible starting at 8 AM *Spacious cocktail hour and ceremony areas overlooking the surrounding landscape *Ceremony chairs and arch are included, though there is a moving fee if you plan to reuse the chairs indoors for the reception *Reception hall features high ceilings and includes tables and chairs *Reasonably priced in house catering with a solid selection of hors d'oeuvres *No cake cutting fee *Reasonably priced meals for children and vendors =CONS= *Virtually nonexistent Wi Fi *The groom suite is connected to the locker room, requiring belongings to be relocated later in the evening *The included chairs resemble standard conference room seating, so most couples will likely want to upgrade to Chivari chairs for an additional rental fee *Dark brown carpeting in the reception room =NOTES= *Day of coordination services are required, though outside coordinators are allowed *Option to upgrade the cocktail hour location, which offers a lovely patio view *The standard cocktail hour space is not shaded and can become quite hot, so expect to rent parasols or other shade options Overall, this was a strong nearly all inclusive venue option. The flexibility in choosing outside day of coordination services was a particularly unique and appealing feature. Personally, the carpeting and the lack of a fully dedicated groom suite made me hesitate before committing. Since the golf course remained active during our visit, we were unable to tour the groom suite, which made the golf course aspect feel slightly more apparent. Still, the ceremony, cocktail, and reception spaces were separated well enough that the property ultimately felt more like a wedding venue than simply a golf course hosting weddings.

Maderas Golf Club in Poway uses the natural hills of Poway with multiple elevation changes that…read moremake this course a challenge for any skill level. This course rewards players who can hit the ball long and accurately with some long par 3's and par 5's. With this visit being my first time playing at Maderas, this course for a high handicapper was tough with the changing elevation. Club selection was very important and getting a clean strike rewards you with a chance. The course overall was in good shape and the greens were tricky so it took a couple of holes to get the speed down. Overall great experience at Maderas as the facility was top tier, staff was excellent and the course was challenging. Definitely put this course on your list and don't forget to say hi to the wild turkeys that roam the course freely.

I started as a beginner and I now can get my balls to go straight and with height. Granted it's not on grass but in the beginning it is important to get muscle memory of the set up and then the way to swing DOWN.

I was interested in irons and a new driver and 5 wood. I only signed up for an irons fitting but we finished that part early and Kasey kindly let me hit some drivers and 5 woods. I ended up purchasing Mizuno irons and the Taylor Made Qi10 driver and 5 wood. Kasey wasn't pushy at all, just really nice through the entire process. I could have purchased the clubs elsewhere but I wanted to give him the business. I love my Qi10s and will be picking up my irons today. Thanks Kasey for the awesome service and experience!

There is about two bunkers for practice and chipping area where you get to see your balls land and roll. Also there is two sections for long game. Matt and grass area where you can hit irons only .

Majority of holes are par 3 and there are a few par 4s. You can play the whole course without a driver. Course maintenance is OK for the price. There are some holes are very muddy with crazy divots everywhere in the tee box. Greens are mostly well maintained. There are some holes that have houses here that are easy to hit with a wayward tee shot so be careful as the owners can get angry and confrontational. On the last tee time we were blamed for the group in front of us hitting an errant tee shot.

One of the maintenance guys was relentlessly spraying the greens with a hose while we were putting. Aside from the unpredictability of the speed on the greens, my foursome only saw the cart girl once. It was 95 degrees when we started and 105 when we finished. No water buckets anywhere in sight either. Good thing I brought my own. In addition to monitoring your thirst, watch your back! There are two holes where balls from the driving range will come flying at you (on the 10th and I cannot recall the other). Installing a net would be the logical (and safe) thing to do. No GPS on the carts. Bring a rangefinder. This is not a JC course and the conditions explain why.
