Whitney Oaks Golf Club

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.

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.

Golf course was in great shape except for a couple sand traps that were under repair

Course will beat you up. Bring extra balls. Great layout, friendly staff.

Whitney is a very challenging course. Precision is key. Lot of doglegs, carry over cross creeks/ravines.

With that said, the place is in excellent condition, the practice facility is one of the best around. The staff is very friendly.

They were punching the greens on the back and not even going in number order so I had to wait 2 separate times about 10-15 minutes just to finish. If the guy in the pro shop would’ve said something this would’ve probably not bothered me as much but he literally said you will have no restrictions playing a fast round

The course itself is beautiful but the pace of play was incredibly slow. We played on a Saturday and the group in front of us were three players along with two girlfriends/wives and two little kids. No marshall around to tell the kids not to play in the sand trap or to rake them afterwards. Just parents chasing their kids around on a golf course in a Saturday with no care of anyone behind them for 5 1/2 hours

Always have enjoyed playing this course. Today was the first time playing with my sons and they loved it and I loved the time spent with them on such a wonderful course. Looking forward to playing here again with my sons.

Review of Whitney Golf Course, California

I had an absolutely fantastic time playing at Whitney Golf Course. The way the course plays is just phenomenal—well-maintained fairways, smooth greens, and a layout that offers both challenge and enjoyment for any golfer. Every hole felt thoughtfully designed, making the round not only competitive but also a great experience overall.

One of the biggest highlights was the staff. From check-in to the final hole, everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the day even more enjoyable. It’s always nice to play at a course where the staff genuinely cares about the players’ experience.

The food was another pleasant surprise. After the round, grabbing a bite was a great decision because everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. Definitely a strong point for the course.

The only downside was the electronic scorecard system in the carts. It initially stated that scores could be emailed or printed, but unfortunately, that feature wasn’t functional. Apparently, the course’s new management didn’t renew the subscription, which was a little disappointing. It’s a minor thing, but it would have been nice to have that option.

Overall, Whitney Golf Course is an excellent place to play, and I’d highly recommend it to any golfer looking for a great day on the course. With friendly staff, fantastic course conditions, and great food, it’s a must-visit. I just hope they fix the scorecard system in the future!

Conditions were exceptional. Pace of play was terribly slow 5:45 to get to 16th hole n called it a day. But everything was great.
