Napa Golf Course at Kennedy Park

Not one golf course in CA—NOT ONE—has come as far as Napa Kennedy Park in this drought ridden golf attrition time. They are to be commended for making this course green again. Hats off to management and especially maintenance and greens keeper crew for making it entirely playable and enjoyable. It’s no mirage. It’s truly a good course and always has been.

I’ve played USGA, PGA, and Senior PGA events these last few years that are in no better condition than Napa is in right now.

Greens are solid. Plenty of sand in traps. Tee boxes are good, flat, and grassy. In fact most fairways were in really good shape.

If it were me running the place. I’d put a lateral hazard down the middle at about 250-300 yards on hole 15 to stop some of the whining I see posted here with some reviews.

And who said the food was awful? I had the Cali chicken sandwich yesterday and it was delicious.

From the vistas and panoramas here at Kennedy Park, don’t underestimate the photo opportunities and embrace being in a wonderful nature preserve that is truly a good golf course.

Come and get it now, as it’s a wonderful time of year to enjoy this track. We all know that the 16 holes with lakes can become 160 lakes in the winter, or with rains, but that isn’t the case right now.

FORE! Look out for Napa Kennedy Park as it’s no too busy, not too swanky, and since it’s not $600 like pebble beach or a country club that’s out of reach, it’s value is noteworthy.

Course was in good shape and even hole nine had dried out enough to be playable from the normal tees.

It started off being nicely maintained. But there is a stretch of holes on the back nine that we’re beyond terrible. Almost as if the course completely ignores the holes.

Impressed with the condition of fairways and greens

Staff was friendly and attentive

Grill food was sub par and pace of play was ridicules as was driving range mats

Not too bad. Some fairways in bad shape. Many bunkers need attention. Greens were nice . It would be good at discounted rate. For the rate we paid, other local courses a better value.

Course has many interesting challenging holes. Like that majority holes look different. Need to select different clubs on tee. Greens were in fairly good shape. Most bunkers had good sand. Played in afternoon, day after a rain so course was not crowded. Finished in 3 hours.

The bad, fairways are beat. Some tee boxes were like hitting from the rough. Fortunately got a hot tee time deal otherwise overpriced for what it is.

David, the fourth guy to join our threesomewas a lot of fun to play with. Another great outing!

Narrow greens bring a good challenge to stay in the fairway.
