General Old Golf Course

About General Old Golf Course

You won't find this military base course in any golf magazines, but General Old delivers exactly what you'd expect from a no-frills base layout, straightforward holes that won't break your scorecard or your wallet. The 3.9 Google rating tells the real story: it's perfectly adequate golf without any pretensions, maintained well enough to be enjoyable but nothing that will make you cancel your weekend plans at Torrey Pines. Walking is allowed, which is a nice touch since many military courses restrict it, and the flat desert terrain makes for an easy stroll. What sets General Old apart is its accessibility and unpretentious character. This is meat-and-potatoes golf where you can work on your game without worrying about pace of play or dress codes. March Air Reserve Base has a rich aviation history, and while the course itself won't win design awards, there's something refreshingly honest about a track that focuses on playable golf rather than flashy features. If you're looking for a quick round in the Riverside area and don't need championship conditions, it's worth the modest greens fee.
