Cache Creek golf course

This course is a joy to play and is always in immaculate condition. The staff is always friendly and professional. We never leave the course dissatisfied and look forward to the next visit. We only wish they still offered Ztroon Tuesdays so we could play a little more often. Thanks for a wonderful experience!

Dear James4453841,

Thank you for your review and for playing! It is always nice to hear about another great experience by one of our guests. Once the COVID-19 environment improves a bit more, we will start offering Troon Tuesdays again. Right now the demand is so high for golf that we don't have enough open space to have one of these promotions. I am confident that this will change as time goes on and we will be offering these soon.

Again thank you for the feedback and see you again very soon!

A beautiful day

When I drove in my temperature was taken, everything was already Paid for. I just picked up my cart and went immediately to the driving range. Then the Marshal came by and let me know when my time was, which He was very efficient and courteous. My understanding is they have given more time between golfers and foursomes so nobody was pressing us we were not pressing anyone. The staff had their mask on, and seemed very well aware, and respectful of all of our health concerns. A great day

Very good experiences

I drove 110 miles each way to get to Yocha Dehe and I liked it so much I did it again the following weekend. The course is excellent and starts with a very elevated tee shot into a perfectly manicured fairway. Greens were true, but not overly fast. Every hole presents a new challenge. Water comes into play on a few holes. Staff was friendly, range and practice area were very nice.

Only downside is that green to tee the holes are often pretty far apart, which makes walking the course pretty challenging.

I don't know if I'll be back again this season just because the distance is so far, but the course is an absolute gem.

Simply stunning

I’ve played this course a number of times. The setting is beautiful. The conditions are superb. The layout is challenging and beautiful. How ever far you might have to drive, it is worth it. The greens are good sized and roll true. I don’t know if you can find a bad lie in the fairway. The rough might be difficult to hit from. It is fairly thick but not too deep. What ever you score, you can always go to the casino and try your luck there or enjoy one of the many restaurants that are available after your game. Treat yourself and play Yocha Dehe.

It was hot! But we had a great time. Thanks to one of the marshalls that gave us a handicap flag when we made the turn. It sure helped out finishing the last 9 holes. We’ll be back for sure! Always a 5 star course!

This course is beautiful

I have played this course probably 20 times! Never has it been cart path only!! I didn’t find out until the first tee!! Normally I wouldn’t mind but I was playing with my dad who is 78 and has COPD but still shoots near his age!! When asked about him going on the fairways they had no leniency!! If I knew this before hand I wouldn’t have had him play!! An email would have been nice but other than that this course is the best around!!

Dear u000001314012,

Thank you for your review and for playing! We certainly appreciate you visiting us during these hard times.

We want to apologize for the cart path only. Unfortunately we did no expect to get the amount of rain that we got the night before, making cart path only necessary. We typically like to let our golfers know ahead of time but unfortunately did not have enough time to do so efficiently. We will look at ways to improve this in the future.

Again thank you for playing and come see us again soon! Have a great day.

Yocha Dehe GC @ Cache Creek Casino

This is my third round at Yocha Dehe in 6 days and every round here has been an absolute pleasure.

There are 5 tee boxes on every hole to choose from. The fairways are player friendly and the rough may or may not penalize you. The bunkers seem to be in all the right spots. The greens provide large targets to hit and putts rolled exactly where you aimed. The closing holes 15 through 18 are pure fun. ​

​Others have commented that this course is out in the middle of no where but I beg to differ. It's well worth every golfers time to find their way here and play. The service provided by the staff was second to none. Their attention to detail, the course conditioning and one great hole after another make this course stand out from the rest.

Yocha Dehe GC @ Cache Creek Casino

While researching golf courses to play in and around the Sacramento area, Yocha Dehe GC came up repeatedly as one of those "must play" courses. Past experience playing casino associated courses has always been good and Yocha Dehe is right up there in that regard.

It's about a 45 minute drive from downtown Sacramento and well worth the drive. Staff were friendly and courteous.

Nice practice areas are available to work on any shortcomings in your game. The practice greens were a fair representation of how the courses greens were playing...fast and rolling true. I've never been a fan of Club Car golf carts but I have to say the carts on the property were decked out with all the bells and whistles,...GPS, ice in the coolers, split windshield and thick and comfy faux ostrich leather seats.

The first tee is perched atop a hill that looks out onto the course and the surrounding Capay Valley. A pristine fairway lies no less than 90 feet below. I've played many mountain courses over the years and dramatic drives from on high never get old.

One good hole follows the other at Yocha Dehe. Fairways are wide and well struck balls will run out. The white sand filled bunkers are strategic in their placement throughout the course especially around the greens. The greens are large and undulating. They rolled consistently at a nice pace. Water hazards can come into play on a few holes, Holes 4, 10, 15, 16, 17 and 18.

The course is a "must play". Fantastic conditioning, attention to detail and exceptional service from staff.

This is one of the very best daily fee courses in Northern CA

I have played Yocha Dehe many times and have never had a bad round there. Today it rained a bit but the course was in perfect condition. Tees, fairways, bunkers, and greens were as good as the best courses in the world. Even the rough was perfect (eg deep grass and hard to get out of)..The staff acts like they want you to have a great time and my wife and i did as we have many times before today..

All things considered this is my favorite golf course in Northern California..

This place is the real deal.

Hands down one of the nicest courses i have played. The tee boxes were being redone and they pushed the tees up a little but those ones were still perfect. Honestly no complaining here. Course conditions 100% The staff was very friendly and willing to help you with anything and at the end of the round i was handed a mango scented towel! OHH MYY that was great. Thank you.

Must Play

If you are within 2 hours of this course and you love Golf, you must play this at least once. From the Bag drop to bartender at the 19th, every person truly cares about providing the best service.

The course conditions and layout are unmatched.

I play 50 times a year all around Nor-Cal and this would easily be in my top 5.

The management and staff should be commended for bringing a top notch golf experience to Northern Calif.

Another day in paradise

A great day, weather perfect, even though I didn’t have my A game; it is always in such great shape. I drive an hour to play, it is that good.

My fellow golfers need to fix their ball marks on the green; it’s disrespectful not too.
