Great golf course!

Golfers you better get out and play this course, it's beautiful and it's challenging. There's a myth about not watering the course! The golf course is plush green. Check it out, you won't regret it.

Glad to see Diablo Grande open again!!!

First time playing the Ranch course. Great staff and looking for ways to be of assistance. Kind of remote area so not a lot of course usage. The greens roll very well. Definitely a destination but a great value for the price.

Fun course to play

Have played there several times since they opened. The Ranch course is my favorite, but I also enjoyed the Legends, which I was very sorry it closed due to the drought. Course is challenging enough to have a fun day. We played in windy conditions which became more challenging, but fun since your shot making was extremely challenged on the holes that were into the wind. The staff was very informative and treated us like a private club member. The small restaurant had a killer tri-tip quesadilla and service was very timely.

Diablo Ranch

We had a mid afternoon tee time but there was a Northern Ca Junior tournament going on at the course, so it was slow for the first 9 holes. Once they were off the course, it was much faster, probably on a 4 hour pace. We loved the course but the water shortage has taken it toll on parts of the course. The fairways were actually quite good and the greens were some of the best we've played here in the Valley. The overall condition of the course was actually very good. We played with a couple of members and had a great time

drought still a factor

Although greens and bunkers in excellent condition, fairways are still showing effects of a lack of water. Still, playing lift, clean and place made for an enjoyable round. Staff very helpful.

Beautiful course

This course is tucked away in the middle of the mountains. Worth the drive to get to however. this course can be extremely challenging if you dont keep the ball in the short grass. Will be back the next time I am out that way.

Worth the long drive for great 18 Holes...

Beautiful golf course played during the weekdays. Very scenic surroundings and views. My only gripe would be the signage for the golf course for a first timer golf player... Can become very confusing which way to go. I also would recommend on the SCORECARD that each hole be illustrated in graphic format (aerial view) to show how the hole should be played. The yardage markers were very helpful on the course but to a first timer not knowing the course layout each hole becomes very difficult.

Play it before it's too late.

The course was empty at 9:15 on Friday Morning. I played the Ranch 18and it was in great shape. Played as a single in 2 hours and 15 minutes. How much longer can they provide great conditions with no one playing?

grande dry

generous fairways for landing, dry probably from hot weather and our drought. You will have to move your ball at times when in fairway for some grass. Couple holes wishing i had bought the course book or been playing with someone who knows the layout.Greens are good not fast but true.
76,not bad for score not knowing layout.

Well worth the drive

This course is one of my favorites because it is well taken care of and has awesome views. It is plenty challenging and is honestly the best value and comparable to others that cost double. I tend to use all of my clubs playing here.
