The Oaks Course at The Welk (part of the Hyatt Vacation Club in Escondido, CA) is a scenic 18-hole, par-3 golf course designed by David Rainville in 1964. It is specifically designed to be approachable for all skill levels and is a popular destination for golfers looking to improve their short game or for beginners and families.

* Terrain: The course is named for the 100-year-old oak trees that line its fairways. It features scenic views, well-groomed greens, and a meandering stream that creates water hazards on a few holes.
* Pace of Play: A typical round of 18 holes at The Oaks takes approximately two hours to complete.
Pricing and Access
* The course is open to the public and resort guests. Rates for traditional golf typically fall into the following ranges:
* Public Rates: Approximately $55 on weekdays and $61 on weekends.
* Member/Guest Rates: JC Players and resort owners may receive discounted rates ranging from $45 to $51.
* Estimated Fees: Some sources estimate lower green fees around $25 for the par-3 layout specifically; it is recommended to confirm current pricing with the pro shop at (760) 749-3225.
Multi-Sport Offerings
The Oaks Course is unique for hosting several alternative sports on the same layout:
* Disc Golf: An 18-hole disc golf course runs along the same path as the golf course. It features “Catcher Pro” targets and paver tee pads. Fees for disc golf are approximately $15–$18, with disc rentals available for $5.
* FootGolf: A soccer-golf hybrid is played here using the same tee boxes. It features larger soccer-ball-sized holes marked with white flags (traditional golf pins use yellow flags).
* FlingGolf: The course also accommodates FlingGolf, which uses a specialized stick to “fling” a golf ball instead of hitting it with a club.
Amenities and Facilities
* Pro Shop: A well-stocked pro shop offers equipment and check-in services.
* Dining: Guests can visit the 9th Hole Snack Shop for quick refreshments or the Canyon Grille for full-service dining.
* Instruction: Professional golf instruction and clinics are available for those looking to refine their technique.
