Send out the course ranger

The greens are awesome for this time of year, fairways are average, course and facilities are showing a lack of maintenance.

Pace of play was awesome on the first nine holes and then 2 1/2 hours on the back nine, the Ranger should be out, pushing the slow pokes along.

Practice area is in great shape…will play again.

Not a very great experience.

1) Front desk staff not friendly at all.

2) Did not have enough carts at check in for entire group.

3) Stacked tee times too close so backed up at 1st tee.

4) 4 hour pace took almost 5 1/2 hours due to back up.

5) course was hammered.

First Time Playing

Not Good

After waiting over a hour past my tee time. I finally just left. This place was terrible. They overbooked and had no carts ready. I sat and watched hole 18 while waiting for my cart and no one played hole 18 for over 30 minutes,meaning that they had no marshall and could care less about the pace of play. Pro shop could care less. They already got their money. I will not go back.

Solid day.

Course was in decent shape overall. Greens were ok, but rolling slow. Also, some of the tee boxes were in rough condition, almost like we were hitting out of a bunker or off hard pan. The cart girl was rolling around doing a good job, but as I’ve experienced before in the past, at times they don’t answer their phone when you try to call the pro shop or restaurant. For the price better than playing some other courses around Sac/Roseville area. And last but not least, the pace of play was actually good. If you’ve played here on a weekend before you’ll understand when I say I was excited to get done in 4 hrs.
