Franklin looking pretty good
Franklin is known for dry to dead fairways in the summer due to the tough water situation they’re in. But this year they have the course in pretty good shape for the water bill they have. It’s better than years past by far! But the cost of a round is pretty steep on weekends. I feel this course should be at least a little lower than other area courses who are in a better watering situation. But starting at 3pm through the week it’s $35. That will work. Overall this course is a lot better than years past but still behind the better conditions of other area courses. The staff is good too. Sometimes they stack up players and if you’re behind a foursome with two walkers who spend 10 mins looking for their ball, well there’s no marshal to help ya out. Overall Franklin has gotten a lot better starting this year.
Does this course employ a greens keeper???
I have never played a course so poorly maintained in my life. Every hole starts off with 150 yards of hardpan. If you miss the green and don’t land in a trap it’s hardpan. The fairways are absolute trash with large swaths of hardpan throughout, and it just got worse with each hole. This course is an absolute disgrace.
Rating for new golfer
As a new golfer, I found this course to be good. I liked the pace of play even though I find myself to be at an avg speed, I have a friend who is a little slow. We didn't feel rushed and didn't have to wait long to tee off at the next hole. The course was under construction the day I was there and the staff was tending to the greens so I didn't have the best conditions when we played. I got my first birdie on this course which I was pumped for!
No water
Course needs plenty of work. Fairways very dry. Greens in decant shape. No bargain for the rates.
Basically OK. Fairway is not so good otherwise I give 3.6 point.
Rural find, very peaceful.
My first round at Franklin Canyon. Staff was friendly. Pace of play was a bit slow but we managed to keep moving along with only a few delays.
Course was in relatively good shape, greens mostly in very good condition.
We'll visit again.
Okay course with expected Covid rules.
Course was dry but playable. I normally hit my driver about 220-230 yards. Hole 15 is long, fairly straight, and downhill--my drive went 290 yards. There can be an advantage to dry conditions. Finished round in 3-1/2 hours...faster than usual.
Won’t let us repeat
We finished our tee time around 4pm and went back to proshop and ask the staff and we can pay for a repeat but he won’t let us. We ask why “ he said we suppose to go home after we finished because of covid 19 prorocol , thats why that they wont us go again”. So far this the only golf course in Bay Area wont let us repeat.
Good fairways, good greens.. could have more special rates
GOOD LAYOUT
First time played, cool layout. A lot of hard dirt “ pan “ all around, really have to make ball first contact , and the greens could be better. With that said, we had a great time, it was a challenge. You do get rewarded for good shots! Great service.. nice test.
(Slope is true.. play the whites unless your a 6)
Franklin Golf course
Great staff, food and patio open, greens in really good shape, these guys are working hard to provide a good golf experience
Franklin canyon
Course conditions are spotty at best. Baer patches on many fairways, greens were slow, tee boxes need improvement.
