definitely a fun tuff course

course knowledge will definitely do you well here. the greens were rolling and this is first of February so it's wet. I would like to see how the course plays when it's dry.

Bring extra golf balls

Very difficult especially for the first few rounds. Course knowledge goes a long way. Difficulty of course slows the pace of play.

Best course in northern Cal

I’ve played here since 2003, and it’s by far the best course in Northern California in my opinion no wonder colleges pick this course for their tournaments. Hard only if you’re a hacker but fair, greens lightning fast don’t be above the hole. Great layout and amenities.

All dried fairway grasses

Fairway grasses were all dried out and it was like playing on a bare ground. Disappointed.

Simply beautiful

Anytime you get a chance to play in this weather thank the lord we live in California and for golf. Course is coming along nicely but the greens are notoriously fast for this time of year. Overall great fun in the sun at a beautiful course.

Always a Challenge

Whitney Oaks is one of my favorite courses in the area. Great mix of holes which will have you using every club in your bag! Considering it's January and we've had record rainfall it was the course played very well. Highly recommend you giving it a try.

Golf experience

This is a hard course! It was first time playing it and looking at the scorecard I figured oh I should score well here. Well I had one par and on last hole. The layout is so unique and beautiful. I can’t wait to come back and play it in the summer. And get more than one par!
