Peacock Gap Golf Club

Fairly designed and maintained course.

One of the better public course in Marin!

An easy course to walk as it's flat and not too far from green to next tee. The layout is challenging with dog leg fairway, penalty areas on the sides and some you must hit over, plenty of fairway to aim at and play around and many greenside bunkers with adequate sand. The challenging greens are undulating with raised fronts and sides. The grass on the greens is very good but the same cannot be said of the fairways which are the only downside of the course. The grass growth on the fairways is not good even down the middle and there are some weeds growing around the greens, but not too bad. If you don't mind bumping your ball in the fairway and onto grass, or like the challenge of hitting from dirt patches and thin lies frequently, then this is a very challenging and otherwise well maintained course.

Play this course pretty often. Peacock is always a good option especially hanging with friends, making new ones, grabbing drinks or if you just wanna hang out at the Range café. Pace of play varies based on the time of day/ day of the week., I typically play on Fridays and Saturdays, but even then can manage to get through 18 holes within 4 to 4 1/2 hours.

Fairways and tee boxes definitely need attention. Greens were good but soft and bunkering was good. Par threes were the best holes on the course.

For a flat course, the layout is challenging with the many bunkers and undulating greens, especially playing in the afternoon wind. However, the fairways lacked sufficient grass with the ball often settling on hardpan and dirt between patches of thin grass. The greens were decent but 5 ft slower than the speedy practice green and a bit bumpy. Maybe it was just the grass growth in the late afternoon. Improve the fairway grass coverage and the course will be fine.

The course layout is great for walkers or riders. It's kept in great shape.

But more importantly the staff members are terrific--friendly, welcoming and efficient.

It all makes for a great golfing experience.

Peacock Gap please do something about the Geese on your gorgeous course. They're using it as their favorite bathroom. 16 Tee is pathetic with all the excrement. I had to chase them off more than once during our round. Perhaps a cart and a dog might work.
