Discovery Bay Golf Club

I enjoyed the setting of the course.. you are out in the woods with no houses. I'm an 8 handicap and the blue tees were a real challenge. At least 5 of the party 4's played over 400 yards. The greens were nice and held the ball well but were slower than my home course. I walked 18 and the front was easy....the back will give you a little more of a workout with some pretty steep hills. The overall course condition was good and pace of play was awesome. I played in just over 3 hours. I'll come back and try it again and will hopefully do better now that I know where to place some of my drives. I also saw a lot of deer out there which was cool. The Pro there was really nice and let me tee off early.

Is a basic layout in playable shape but what you'd you expect from a rural course. Price was great with GolfNow. Enjoyed everything although the ride in the cart was pretty rough.

We purchased two individual golf certificates from GolfNow. Each purchase stated that the purchase was for 18 holes and a golf cart included. The staff stated that you purchase a seat and not a cart. Even if there were four different golfer, they would be made to ride together even if they didn't want to. It messed the hole game up for me and my wife. Wasted money and an hour drive to get there.

Recommendation: have a clause in the course description that state that you are purchasing a seat and not a cart.

Went to this course with my best friend celebrating my 73rd birthday, which is Tuesday. Had a great time and enjoyed the course, weather and companionship. Thanks, Pastor Bill.

Arrived and it was raining. Looked at the radar, saw a break coming, waited 15 minutes, rain stopped and held off til we walked off 17. Had a great time. Greens were nice, no puddles, played well. Really fun and very green. We will return..

This is a great course nestled away in Discovery Bay. We love playing this course and the staff is so nice! The course was in great condition and it's a great price for a round.

The course plays short (very short) but tons of fun. It's a great place to increase confidence and just plan have fun. Nice restaurant appealing menu short driving range 150 yards.

the course should not have been open. Lost 9 balls in center of fairway. Fairway grass was 3 to 4 inches high. Too wet to mow. Course was covered in white clover.

Very short course, but can get into trouble. Tee off at 9:00am on a Sunday and there was maybe 5 other people on the course. Extremely fast to play as a single.

The front nine truly has a historic feel about it, and is comfortably walkable. Everything is out in front of you, with a very pleasing variety of holes. The back nine departs somewhat dramatically from the front with terrain changes that demand the use of a cart for old guys like me. As with the front side, the variety of holes present you with one beautiful visual after another gorgeous scene.

The course, particularly the back nine, has a secluded feeling. It seems like it was carved out of a piece of northwest forest with lots of the original trees and undergrowth remaining. An errant shot seldom ends up in another fairway--it's more likely to be gone forever in the undergrowth. I've played the course twice and really couldn't draw even a rough map of the back nine--most holes seem to be isolated entities. When you finish the 18th hole and find yourself near the clubhouse, you think, "Where did that come from?"

All fairways on back 9 sloped left-to-right or vice versa and were quite narrow with trees lining both sides. Also, the greens, while in outstanding condition, were undulating. I enjoyed playing there, but the back 9 was too difficult for my skill level. (Front 9 was less difficult and basically flat.

Played this course a month ago and loved it. Came back to play and the course is literally horrible. Greens are patchy and mostly dead. Tee boxes are slippery and muddy. A complete turn for the worse in about a months time.

The greens were excellent. Unlike other courses on the Peninsula the fairways were green. Great staff, easy relaxed atmosphere. Considering price, conditions and alternate venues on the Peninsula, Discovery is the best value going...

Played here a couple of months ago, I have always enjoyed the layout of this course. Conditions then were not bad, but I was completely surprised at how despite this brutal weather for growing grass the condition that they have the course in now! Fairways are not parched or dead and the greens are beautiful and rolling nice. They were out aggressively watering on this 90 degree day, good job to all.

Perfect low pressure, forgiving course to enjoy a round with a friend learning. Flat front nine out and back. More character to the hillside back. Fairways were adequate. Greens were maintained well. Early Sat reservation found low pressure making for a comfortable fun round from the up tees

very disappointed with the course conditions, many parts of the course was burnt with fertilizer. plugged and reseeded, plugs left in place, making it very hard to chip in places around the greens. Should be marked as ground under repair and free relief afforded.
greens are so hard that a good approach shot from 100 yards just bounces of the greens. then to add insult to injury, they just raised their rates. DISCOVERY BAY GOLF just dropped to the bottom of my list of golf courses. Its a shame because the course has so much potential to be the best

Many sections of fairways were browned and dead. When I asked about it I was told there was a weedkiller application "mishap" . Greens in good condition overall but many are way too hard. A sky high shot onto the green should be rewarded with more than a skip off. There were also a few areas around green fringe I would label ground under repair that were so soggy and mushy a couple of my approaches perfectly placed to release onto the green ended up plugging .Putting surface was very fast and smooth. Some new tee areas look great. I think once the kilt grass recovers and other early season issues are conditioned, it will be much better. My round was a great value @ $22 for 18 holes with a lower cart booked at 1pm on a Friday I had one play thru (i was single) and No delays after completing 18 in under 4 hrs time.

18 holes of fun in the sun, great green's , a ball hit off the fairway is in deep trouble! It reminded me of playing as a kid in the neighbor's cow pasture! Great fun ! Well worth the drive & you can't beat the price!

The staff are very friendly and the course is not overrun by golfers. That said the front 9 is country golf in that the fairways and paths are very muddy. The back 9 is much more interesting but even then the conditions of the fairways gets in the way of an overall enjoyable day of golf. After losing my second ball in the fairway due to the ball plugging immediately and subsequently lost we decided to just play a best ball round and I dug out the cheap balls to not be upset over losing something that honestly should never be lost. I suppose this course would be much more fun in the summer when it is less wet but then I hear the course gets way more busy. Not worth the hour drive for me to play here again.
