Not impressed
Teed off at 1pm. Very windy. I was told it is usually even windier on most days. Teed up a ball on 18 and it wiggled a bit on the tee due to the wind. Not a visually attractive golf course. Looks more like patches of green in a cow pasture. Vineyards off the course are nice to look at. Fairways and tees were in fair condition. Greens were in great shape. My wife and I were disappointed overall. We have played Poppy Hills and this course pales by comparison. We will not be playing Poppy Ridge again. Would rather play Wente GC nearby again. Much more pleasing to the eye.
Slow play. Won’t return
The. course itself is nice, but the experience was awful. Had to bail out after a 3 hour front nine. Not a starter or a marshall or a beverage cart in site all day. Horrific pace of play. For 90 bucks they have to run a tighter ship. Rude staff that are more interested in standing around chatting to one another and act as they they are inconvenienced by their customers. Bird crap all over the restaurant patio and railings. Disgusting. Lame all around.
A choice of 3 courses for your round
A great course in Livermore. There are three 9-hole courses you can choose from for your round. Some of the holes test your skills and course management. Greens and fairways were great with exception of one hole that had big divots all across the green. The pace of play was too slow for when we went. It took 5.5 hours to play the round on a weekday. Overall a good experience but I hope next time we encounter a better pace of play and the course and it's not that crowded.
Great Condition
Played in 4 hrs with 1pm tee time. Traps could us a little work but fairways and greens great condition.
My group was painfully slow
The guys I played with were incredibly slow golfers. I wished there was a Marshall to push them along. But the course was in good shape and It’s definitely a challenging course. I would go back, but I would play with my friends and not pair as a single.
Beautiful course
Pace of play was horribly slow on a Saturday. We couldn't finish but the holes we played we had a great time and all the staff are super friendly
Good course, but not memorable
Conditions were good, clearly they maintain this course well. I can't complain about anything other than the cost and the layout. Upon arriving home and reviewing my round with my GPS device, I found myself already having forgotten much of the course. Most holes are forgettable, and the cost is way too high to be forgetting it almost instantly. Still was a fun day and conditions were great!
Poppy Ridge-Merlot
Booked last minute and drove 30 miles from the South Bay and Poppy Ridge did not disappoint. I played Merlot, the 9 hole rolling hills walking course. Weather was perfect, greens were very well kept and put in 11k steps. I’ll definitely play here again
Wrong date
Hi, I got email from GolfNow that my credit card was charge on Friday $195. I’m running in to a problem and I’m sure I booked my time to play on Sunday February 21 not February 19. Not sure how it became February 19. I’m actually was planning play golf tomorrow with my friends. And I’m sure I didn’t do mistake of choosing date , because I was looking to book time for Sunday 21 with my friends at the same time. Somehow when I was confirming my order it became February 19 and I didn’t know about it until I saw your email.
