The Crossings at Carlsbad

Golf Course Review Crossings at Carlsbad Carlsbad California

Reviewed by: leef2020, Huntington Beach, CA

Played Crossings for the first time in six months today at 1:39pm, with a friendly couple from Canada. Friendly greetings by the cart/bag attendees, pro shop staff and starter. POP was pretty good, finishing in 4hrs 20mins.

Course is still in mostly winter conditions. Tees and fairways are good, and fairways provided good lies and roll. Rough was highly inconsistent due to some grasses growing well, and others still dormant, creating tufts of grass behind my ball a few times.

Bunkers seem to have received some new sand, as the sand was very light/slippery, a few inches of fluff before you get to any base, particularly on up-slopes/faces. Easy to ‘whiff’ under the ball.

Greens are mostly, but not 100% recovered from their punching 6 weeks ago. Still, they were a highlight of the course – very lush and deep green, held shots well and rolled nicely at medium pace.

Course is good now. Will likely be great in a month!
