Bang for your buck.

Well groomed for this time of the year and great staff. The only bad thing I would say is my fault is my fault. I didn't dress for the weather.

Best value course in Sacramento.

Unfair review due to wet conditions. Always enjoy playing here but drainage system makes it difficult during rainy season. Will be back :)

Terrible Course

Just a horrible poorly maintained golf course. No way would I ever suggest this course to anyone and I don't want to sugar coat this review and have other interested golfers be mislead. The practice areas were average at best but not bad enough for a bad review. Then we (my wife and I ) teed off and once on the fairway saw how poorly kept the course was. There was more dirt than grass! No choice but to roll your ball to find some grass. Same with the rough. The golf cart had seen better days with stained seats torn and stressed. The greens weren't bad but few fixed their ball marks and don't miss the greens. Honestly, I would not return if this course was offered for free. I don't know who "Mather" was or is but I would be terribly embarrassed to have my name associated with this golf course.

Greens are in great shape

Need to play on a facility with great greens Mather is right up there. Good speed, good roll, and slight angles to give a good practice place, to get it rolling right

Nice and long

This is a long straight course with no unique features. Water hazards are minimal fairways are wide bunkers are fairly placed so the course is very fair but not particularly interesting. The greens were in great shape for January and the course not too muddy for winter play. Nice staff and good value

I like the course, it's perfect for my level (2 years playing golf). I'm sure I will come back and play it again, maybe next time would be on a weekend to check how busy it really gets. But for weekdays, it's a perfect place to play a round of golf.
