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.

Becoming a favorite course

This is a challenging course, however the layout is fantastic. The course is in very good condition. Played on a warm day. The pace of play was fantastic. There was no other players within 2 holes in front or behind. Lots of water on the course. Friendly golf marshals.

A Place for a Fun Day on the Greens

Given how expansive and challenging this course is, it’s a great option to escape for a few hours and enjoy a fun, quiet, day on the greens. Today, it was particularly quiet given it was about 100 degrees but still fun to work on my game and not be caught in the traffic during busier times.

Only hit driver once

Course setup for old guys and seniors/ladies.

Back tee boxes closed however they wouldn’t be playable if open. too many unmaintained trees to provide a window to hit a shot. I won’t be going back unless I want to hit 4-7i off the tee on par4s

Pin placement was tough

The pin placement on this day was ridiculously difficult. Every pin was put on the crest of the green. If you were 3 feet short or long, expect a longer putt than you started with!

As always, if you are 10 -15 yards off the fairways or back rough, don't expect to find your ball in the bushes or OB. Challenging course but worth giving it a try.

Great course, conditions & layout

Excellent condition considering the fairways were a bit dry but very consistent and most of the time a good lie. Greens were rolling true & excellent. Course provides a great challenge. Elevation changes, undulating greens which can have a tight landing spot, blind spots, and a number of shot placements as well. Pro shop very welcoming & professional. Food & beverage nice but very pricy. Look forward to playing it again.
