Super Poor Course Management

I’ve now played back to back Mondays (non-holidays) and the round has taken over 5 hours and 20 minutes both times. They set tee times in 8 minute increments when each hole has taken groups 18 minutes on average to play with NO marshall to be found. You literally wait and wait on every hole and hope you can finish. Regardless it’s an absolute drag of a day having to wait on every hole without anyone speeding things along. Make it semi private or be more realistic with the tee time increments. It’s a shame because the course is great.

First Time Callippe

other than being a 93 degree day, day was very nice...a little slow on pace, which didn't allow us to finish 17 or start 18 with a 2:45 tee time...back 9 is the bigger challenge..be ready!

Beware

Awesome course but beware of making reservations.

We had a reservation for 4 and one of our guys couldn’t make it cause he had a fire in his home that morning. They still charged us for him. So remember that there is no forgiveness for certain issues. But none the less, the course is great.

Poor pace

They have slots every 8 minutes and we played at 1pm and took SIX hours to finish the course. If you want to play go early morning.

Great course

Been playing the last few months around the

Tri Valley area. Have to say that the course was

In the best shape than the others that we played.

The greens were in great shape ! Will be playing

here again soon. We played in the afternoon.

Pace of play was excellent, but it was a hot day.

Horrible staff but a good couse.

Staff was horrible and a person in our group said he comes here much less often because of the staff. Back 9 is great but course conditions were notvas good as they used to be. They also removed GPS screens from their carts.

Sunday Golf!!

Calippe was in very good condition and being a bit windy and playing from the blues, was a decent challenge!! I still believe Hole 18 is a poorly designed hole that needs to be changed because more often than not it can spoil a good round and whenever I play here I know that no matter how well i'm playing i have to play defensively on 18 and just try to avoid bogey. Redesign this hole and make Calippe a course to remember, instead of a hole to forget.

No beverage cart which was disappointing.

Pace of play was fair for a busy sunday, not really slow and not waiting too long for the group ahead but always in sight on the same hole and no chance of increasing the pace, approx just under 5 hours.

GolfNow is pretty pricey these days, monopolizing the tee time industry, long gone are the days of "discounted green fees".

$95 I feel is a little too pricey for what you're getting at Calippe.

GolfPass & the rewards system is not worth it unless you're retired and can use the "Hot Deals" during the week... I WON'T be renewing.

Overall an enjoyable day with friends though nothing really special about Calippe for the price we paid.
