Good Quality Muni Course

I have been playing here regularly during covid and the experience here is pretty consistently positive for me.

They layout is pretty fun and good for all skill levels. Great course if you want to get out there with friends of varying skill levels. The carts are good quality, they take COVID seriously, and have a good putting/practice area. It is in a good location from a scenery perspective and is easy to get to for the most part.

Do not come here expecting a 3 hour round. There are a lot of walkers and things can get pretty backed up. If you go in with that expectation you will be ok but it can take up to 5 hrs if you get the wrong people in front of you. They have a serious gopher problem with gopher holes all over the place which I don't see changing anytime. The greens roll pretty well but are also very challenging.

Overall I consider this course a safe good time and rarely went with anyone who hated it.

No starter, no staff on the course to help push

When we got to the tee box, there was about 9 people waiting to tee of. No one wanted to tee of, so we just started playing.

The pitts

Played here today. Walked off after nine, three hours to play nine......walked to the 10th and they sent out a two some in between the foursome in front of us...that was last straw.....the course was like playing on a cattle ranch. Terrible.

Don’t waste your time.

Sub par fairways and slow pace of play

The fairways are in bad shape and are riddled with squirrel burrows . Too many kids are allowed at one time which keeps the pace of play at snails pace.

Inability to cancel prior to 24 hours

Despite repeated calls well in advance to 24 hours prior to the tee time, Shoreline never honored its cancellation. Tried calling prio and after 24 hours to no avail. Got a vague voicemail several days after. I am out a fair bit of cash with no recourse:

Watch out for the golfer holes!

Haven’t played here in a while due to usual poor-decent course condition, finally figured I’d go give it another shot..no improvements! Still wasn’t bothered because it’s not my first walk in the park here and kind of new what to expect. Until I got to the 10th whole and realized the entire driving range was re leveled and layed w/fresh sod!! Why waste all that grass on the range when every fringe, fairway, and tee box can use a serious make over. Not only did I make 2 golfer hole in ones but I rolled my left ankle twice and my right once in massive/sneaky golfer holes. Hope they start applying the kind of work they did to the range to the course. Not a bad layout but kind of bummer and always look forward to getting it over with by about the 15th. FIX COURSE, NOT RANGE

Not what I remembered....

Course is not in great shape, they've got ground squrirel issues. Holes and burroughs everywhere in the faireways. Thin lies, and needs a lot of TLC. Not what I remembered. play was terribly slow, COVID's fault with no marshalls to move people along, it was painfully slow, and walkers all had umbrellas on their pull carts, a very strange scene for a sunny, clear day. Felt like a retirement home for golfers...

This course is hit or miss. In other words, good course sometimes? Wow what a difference a day makes out here. Oh, but the squirrels...bump the ball and if the greens are maintained it’s a fun test.

Laptops welcome? Go play as you are always a half hour to an hour to many a Bay Area services and the staff is also very welcoming.

Conditions were horrible.

Fairways and rough riddled with gopher holes. Greens made you ball bounce like a super ball. Only saving grace was the weather.
