Great condition

The course is in great shape minus tee boxes. Pace of play was surprisingly fast for once.

The biggest issue was slow play

The course is in okay condition. They’re lots of bear spot in the fairway. Since I was only playing for enjoyment I simply moved the ball to where there was grass. This should be given priority attention. The slow play only allowed more time to stand in the fairway and count beat sports - joke.

Selfishly I didn’t want to review so it doesn’t get too crowded

Super nice course maintained great and the greens were fast, the staff was cool, the carts were nice. Absolutely one of the best public courses in the Sacramento area and a bangin value.

Good challenge

Haven't played here in a couple of years and found it a good challenge. Need more water on the course and they need water/towels in the ball washers
