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.

Excellent Condition Now

The course is in excellent condition for this summer time. The greens are always so tough for the average golfer. I had at least four 3-putts and have played her several times before. Severe undulation on every green. Today, more than half the pins were in the back, side rear--it wasn't evenly distributed. Made scoring tough. Surprisingly, not busy. Pace of play was around 4 hours.

Always Great, But Drink Cart Needs Golf e Etiquette

Always a great course, fun to play, challenging and awesome greens. The Drink Cart that drives around, she kept coming around. If you were about to hit she'd keep driving right up on you. My husband was teeing off of number 9 and she drove right up behind from 8, went over the curb right beside me to keep going. I stopped her and told her she needs to be respectful of the golfers and stop when they are hitting. Other than that and a clown group we caught on 17, cursing and hitting several shots all over the place it was a great day.
