Very nice fairways/greens new front desk guy

Played here many times. Not sure if they got rid of or changed up the guy at the front desk. Old guy is a total jerk and should never work the front desk. This gentleman was friendly and straightforward. So thanks for that. Whole course was in great shape, bridge was fixed and all holes were open. Glad to see the course busy. We will be back.

Challenging in its own way

Short course that looks easy on the score card, however the thin fairways and branches make it extremely challenging if you struggle hitting straight or hit too high! Value is second to none!

Pretty course

The course would be a very nice practice course if there was any green grass on it. Half of it was dead and the other half was weeds or dirt.

Decent and interesting

It's a short course with average course condition. With lots of big trees, it makes me feel great fun to play in summer time.

Great course just watch out for them trees.

First off getting to the course is a true fun drive coming from the Bay Area. The course is well maintained and the views are wonderful. Fun time avoiding all the trees but this helps keep my game straight.

The drinks are great as well.
