Bidwell Park Golf Course

The greens are the best I have ever seen at Bidwell. Nick and the staff were very helpful. Very happy with tge round.

good course. slow play but conditions were good after rainy days.

I have played Bidwell for many years. Right now it is not being managed well. When I arrived to check in I said hi and there was no greeting back. Nick was not friendly and made snarkey remarks when I asked questions. When my friend went back in to ask a question, both Nick and Cole ignored him. We didn'tget to too off until15 minutes past our tee time. The pace of play is horrible. There is no marshell moving slow players along. Five and a half hours of slow play on a dog track course. Chico needs another public course.

Received a good deal on tee-off, for myself and a friend. We were joined by a older gentleman. Course was in pretty good shape with exception of some dead spots in the fairways. Greens were well maintained, a little slow. It would be nice if they put water out on the course to refill bottles. Also, they could have put a note on the 9th hole food ordering sign that the internet/ phone was not working, called over ten times, obviously no answer. Lastly, need more attention to slow play, main reason why my buddies and I will usually not play here.

Bidwell golf course is an pretty course to play , but needs some serious work with the fairways . Could be the lack of water from the summer but seems like your constantly hitting off thin dead grass or dirt . The greens are in good condition , but a bit too slow for my preference. A side note bring water with you because they don’t provide anything on the course. No beverage cart or anything . Overall the course is still enjoyable , but for the price they charge it’s not the best bang for your buck .

Bidwell can be a good course but maintenance is sketchy. Consistency is nowhere to be found. You never know what you're going to get.

We have always liked this course but unfortunately, we arrived on a day that they had a local craft fair on the grounds and a loud band playing on the patio. The music was a distraction to the golfers on the course. It could be heard throughout much of the course. Definitely call ahead and see what is happening at the course on the day you want to play.

Bidwell greens keeper is doing a great job. It is the best condition that I have seen. The rest of the fairways are ok, but not great. This course is not worth $58. More like $35 when compared to other city courses.

Greens were soft easy to putt on. But watch out for trees. Definitely had to hit some tiger woods trick shots.

It was really hot and there’s no water thermoses. Very disappointed. Also ball washers were broke or out of water. Once I used a water puddle to clean my ball.

Grass an edges were trimmed well . No trouble find my balls. And good bounces. I shot an 80. Low score for that course.

Saw deer and squirrels everywhere.

4 dollars for Gatorade was a little high.

Have a nice day

Nice course, but bring a kidney belt if your driving a cart. Not much for cart paths, the wildlife is cool, but hurting the course

In this hot (105*) and dry season, water is a critical subject. There are going to be spots on the course that the irrigation system can't reach. But to NOT provide drinking water on the course is ridiculous and is as much or more of a liability as covid is. Heat stroke is a very strong possibility if a person happens to forget to bring their own water. A course 20 miles away but in the same county has had water stations since early spring, so it is not the county health dept regulating the dispensing of water on the course. Water is essential.

Fairways were a bit sparse in spots. Greens in excellent conditions. Very interesting course layout. Will definitely return.

The slow play put a damper on the day. Tough to find any rhythm we you are waiting on every tee box. Did not finish the round as it took over 3 hours to play the front nine. gave up after 12.

This could be a really nice course with a little care.
