Rough greens
The course was in good shape for winter play except for greens; they were very rough and bumpy. The pace of play was excellent.

This about my 6th or 7th round here. Everything usually goes pretty good. Pace of play etc. It would be nice for the money you have to pay here maybe a cart person come around once in a while. The course is usually pretty well maintained for a desert course. Overall its good and fun challenging place.

$15 per rider?!
Overall the course is nice and pace of play was great since it wasn't busy at all. The only negative was that they charge $15 for an extra rider who isn't even playing. They should list that on their website or something to let the players know.

Poor Service
No water on the course! No ball cleaners. No snack bar. All sand traps are unplayable. Still making Covid the excuse even when all the courses in Bakersfield are operating as normal.
