Morgan Creek Golf and Country Club

2nd time playing here and it was in worse condition than about a month ago in late July 2022. Where do I start… The bunkers have zero sand, or are filled with standing water and goose cr@p. The fairways are over watered, soggy and full of weeds. If you miss a green you’ll be hitting of hard pan dirt or huge clumps of weeds. Menacing geese on almost every hole. We had to chase them away before we could hit some of our tee shots or approach shots. I understand that we are in a drought but the ponds adjacent to some holes are basically cess-pools with stagnant water and god knows what else. They smell horrible too, so plug your nose. Many of the tee boxes were still un-even and infested with weeds. You could barely find a decent place to put your tee in the ground. Out of 18 holes maybe 2 of the greens were in “ok” condition. Many had oil stains from leaky mowers, or literally had crab grass and fungus all over them. Others where full of what looked like holes punched by woodpeckers or some other type of bird. If not for those things mentioned above they were littered with goose cr@p. The greens were also so soft and over watered that your ball nearly plugged. Very, very dissatisfied after paying $72.50. The only good thing about the round was getting to hang out with my buddies and our tee time was actually early. Will NOT be going back anytime soon.

Really liked the layout. Unfortunately, the greens don’t live up to the rest of the course. They were overwatered which led to the greens having problems with footprints and fungus. The traps all had standing water in them as well. Also, they let twosomes go out instead of joining them up. It really is a nice course, but for the cost they should rectify these issues.

The course was in pretty good condition. There has been an extended heat wave of close to 110 degrees for more than a week. There was standing water in the middle of most of the fairways, and the greens were saturated. The greens were so wet that every step left footprints all over the greens. It doesn’t look like the greens have been rolled in a very long time Also all of the greens are fuzzy and super slow probably running less than 8. The greens were so bad that it was one of my absolute worst days of putting ever. Once the ball left your putter you could watch the ball bounce up and down and left and right. Plus you have complete hackers not fixing their ball marks on the greens. There was twice that I had a 70 yard wedge shot and both time they ended up as fried eggs of more than half of the ball.

I do golf here and have been back. Pace of play is terrible and not enforced, most likely due to the way they stack tee times. As usual it was a soggy mess in most places, bunkers aren’t sand but a wet paste like mix. Only benefits of this place are you can usually squeeze two or more players in on short notice.

Poor condition compared to its prior years when it was one of the.best local courses and certainly the best greens.

Course was ok not outstanding in any way lots of moguls and dips. Had to be careful with the driving of the golf cart. Many fairways were experiencing burned out areas, not because they lacked moisture, I played from 1:00 on and finished around 5:00 and there were many moist areas still, even in the heat. I would find mud on my ball even when coming into some of the greens, they were really trying to keep up with the lushness. If there was any dissatisfaction it would be the extreme hillyness on several of the holes.

For time of day the price was a bit high for 18 and cart.

Very good track with challenging undulations and bunkering..very appealing to the eye!

my only criticism is the condition of some tee areas, many fairways and many approach areas with large areas of dirt areas or dead grass. This could be an excellent course, but when I played it in the winter it was very muddy and yesterday also many muddy areas with over watering, probably due to attempt to save the course from the intense heat that the area has sustained / the course has a serious drainage problem.

A mixed review but this course is worth playing if only for the topography, and I would be remiss not to mention the cordial and professional staff including the check-in, the restaurant/bar and the course Marshall.

I used to play here quite frequently, but stopped a few years ago because of unnecessarily below average conditions. I know they’re busier now and have raised their prices, so I thought I’d give it another try. It’s clear they’ve declined to put those new-found dollars into the course, especially the traps. Ridiculous.

Got a hot deal, so I wasn't expecting it to be all that great, and my expectations were met. The tee boxes and fairways were in fair to poor shape and greens not much better. The entire course has a feeling of neglect. Now, it is the height of summer heat in the Sacramento area, so it's possible the seasonal conditions are causing some of the trouble. I'll be back to try again in the late fall, but for now, there are better choices in the area.

Titles says it all. Morgan Creek and their nearly $100 per round price tag, represents the worst value in the the county and surrounding areas of Sacramento. The tee boxes are a mess... the greens are horrendous... the bunkers do have sand, but none of the grass edges are trimmed. It is extremely apparent this course STILL has not recovered from the monsoons of 2016. I do not recommend anyone play here, unless the green fee is under $35.
