Winchester Country Club

Maybe the best course layout in the Sacramento area.

Cart employee exception - quick, pleasant, frequent.

Minor issue but blue/white paint on curbs faded and often didn't correspond to tee box markers.

Club house, a one time strength, is unwelcoming.

Did not see beverage cart until the 17 th hole

For $150 they should at least provide bottled water on a hot day with a cooler mounted to the cart

Scenery and layout is great. Challenging track. Condition was lacking from what I would expect from a CC.

Played today, course was in decent shape. Pace of play was absolutely terrible. I was a single that they originally group with another group. Some members decided they didn’t want to play together so I played a 5 hour round as a single. I called the pro shop on hole 14 as there was 4 groups on the hole. Nobody’s came out to address it. For 150 dollars it is highway Robery. There is nothing special about the place and members were very rude. I went into the pro shop after to ask about why nobody came out to address the slow play. The person at the front desk wasn’t interested in having a conversation. If members are going to be rude and refuse the play in a larger group I would recommend increasing the dues so they don’t have public tee times. Greens were pretty terrible as well, very muddy and a lot of bare spots.

The agronomy was terrible. Over watered. Balls plugging in the fairway. The greens were full of ballparks. Nobody is fixing ballparks. The bunkers are: club damaging, muddy, rock pots. It is DEFINITELY NOT a private golf course, anymore. It is now a MUNI. It's barely worth $50. Let alone $150.00. Wait until next season. The rates will be much lower

Never seen something so expensive with nothing to offer. Greens were trashed and the whole course was a joke. Cart girls didn’t have anything

Wish the golf shop would have told me they just punched the greens a week before. Nothing about it on Golfnow either. Fairways were not country club conditions. Muddy in lots of spots. Challenging layout, great views from the clubhouse. Nice practice facility. Overall I’d like to play it again just not at that price tag.

The course didn’t lower greens fees or advise on GolfNow that they punched the greens. Played first three holes in 30 minutes. So the punched greens were frustrating… but pace was solid. Caught up to a tournament on hole four and it took us 2:15 to play the. next six holes. So on pace for a 5 1/2 hour round. So we left after 9.

The staff offered a free 9 holes next time we came in… but coming up from LA to play 9 holes in Meadow Vista… not likely. Not one to normally complain as we played the last hole with a few members of the club who were waiting as well in the group behind us. They were lovely. Apologetic of our experience and that we just got some bad luck. Overall beautiful course, just want the new ownership to know that they should either force tournaments to speed up their pace or don’t offer tee times behind a tournament. Golf etiquette 101. You better high green fees to not have these things happen. If you charge a reduced rate for punched greens and slow play… then can’t much complain.

The fairways in some spots had wet dirt and no grass and many fairways had very little grass. It was not worth $150 rate. Greens were in great shape, very fast.

Outstanding golf course with great greens. Fairways a little beat up

it is under new management and the staff was really friendly. The course wasn't in good shape, the greens no one repaired the divots and fairways needed some love also

Major construction and renovation of the clubhouse under rumored new ownership has diminished the food and beverage services.

However, the course is in excellent shape as always and its a pleasure to play!
