Short but fun course with excellent greens

Played this course on a weekday afternoon. I chose to walk the course since it is relatively short. My expectations were low as most executive courses tend to be super easy and flat. This course has enough hills, forced carries, and true rolling greens to be challenging yet fun to play. The staff was super friendly and there is a nice restaurant and grill for 19th hole fun.

I left my driver in the bag - never needed it. Most greens were reachable with a mid or long iron.

Slow but affordable and well-kept

Nice greens, good layout, peaceful setting with lots of bird and meandering “creek” thru the middle. Pace is pretty slow esp on the back 9. I enjoyed it, though.

Great Time on the Course!!!

Course fairways are in good condition the greens were excellent, soft but fast. Could use a couple places for drinking water but all n all very nice course.

I was a single and paired up with a twosome and a single. Great Company!!! One was an 8 year old playing with his dad. He was a very polite young man and is learning golf etiquette extremely well. Dad is doing a fantastic job something you just don't see much of anymore!

Good layout w/decent greens

Fun little course to play, with very friendly and courteous staff everywhere. On this day the pace of play was just a little slow, taking four hours, when normally less than 31/2 hrs.

Protect Minors from Secondhand Smoke on the Course

When our family started playing the first hole, we received an offer we couldn’t refuse to add another player to our group, and so we did. The issue is that our family includes minors, and this individual smoked cigars throughout all 18 holes. While I understand that California is quite lenient with golfers regarding alcohol and tobacco, it’s disappointing that we cannot rely on individual conscience and common sense.

Additionally, cigar and cigarette butts littered on the greens and tee boxes detract from the course’s appeal and add to maintenance burdens. Implementing a no-smoking policy would not only protect minors from secondhand smoke but also reduce litter, benefiting course upkeep and enhancing the experience for all players. I hope golf course management, if not the state, recognizes that other places prohibit smoking and ensures smokers are not paired with groups including minors. The course should consider whether allowing smoking or prioritizing minors’ safety and cleaner fairways would be better for business.

That said, the staff were friendly, and the course conditions were good for the price.
