Whitney Oaks Golf Club

About
Whitney Oaks Golf Club in Rocklin sits just half an hour from Sacramento but the stunning landscape blanketed with thousands of live oaks feels much more secluded. In addition to the trees, massive granite outcroppings accent the course. It is both a visually stunning and formidable championship layout. The diverse topography is the focus, providing many challenges with the elevation changes and towering trees that line the narrow fairways. The rolling topography helped to determine the placement of the bunkers. Wetlands come into play throughout the golf course, also serving as home to numerous varieties of indigenous wildlife. The golf course finishes with a tough hole, a long par 5 that is flanked by wetlands on both the left and right. Whitney Oaks G.C. also has a practice facility with a 15-station driving range, a putting green, and pitching area.

Why play Whitney
Beautiful course, challenging greens, great staff. wonderful after round libations.
Always have to bring it here
Whitney is a very fine golf course. It’s mostly a good design with a few nonsense holes, #5 and #17 if you’re playing the Blue tees. It’s a tough test and you’ll lose a few here.
Bring Lots of Balls
Tough layout, you can lose a lot of balls once you are off the fairway.
Greens are in great shape.
The pace of play is not bad for the weekend.
Friendly Starter and Pro Shop Staff.
Hit off the grass on the Driving Range.
Great location
Shots out to the cart girl for always being there when needed.....
Thanks.
Hard, hard course
What a beautiful and fantastic course. Every bit of grass was well maintained and the greens ran fast. You should know before coming here that this is a very challenging course and not for the faint of heart. Bring extra balls and thank me afterwards. The front 9 is definitely more challenging than the back 9.
I play here weekly
One of my favorite golf courses. If you play during the work week (Mon - Friday) you can expect less crowded, more leisurely golf.
Shop golf now for hot deals. The pro shop rack rate is $60.
Slow day
First 12 holes took 4 hours. We skipped 13 & 14 as we saw no one ahead. HOLES 15-18 finishes in 30 minutes. They need a Marshall out there badly.
Challenging but fun
This is a really fun, but challenging course if you don’t hit it straight nor know when to put the driver away. The staff was great as was the clubhouse. They have a hot dog, chips and 32 ounce soda for $10 deal.
Definitely would play it differently next time around and lose less balls in the process.
Course in good playing condition
Always enjoy a fun round at Whitney. Bonus on April 28, 2025 - Brand New mats at the driving range.
Turf in good condition.
If you know and play Whitney then you're good. But a warning to high handicap ad beginners - This course might be too difficult for you. I played with an old guy yesterday who said he hadn't played golf in8 months. He shot well over a score of 130 and lost at least 20 balls. So if you are a novice I recommend you play somewhere easier like Diamond Oaks or Timber Creek both in Roseville.
Great Layout
First time playing here. I thought the layout was great, with a couple of janky holes, overall really liked it. Greens were recently aerified, but with small hole, so no problem and they rolled very good. There were a few areas that could use some mowing and a few spots on greens that were dirt. But overall pretty ok.
Great shape
Golf course was in great shape except for a couple sand traps that were under repair
Nice tough course
Course will beat you up. Bring extra balls. Great layout, friendly staff.
