Yocha Dehe Golf Club at Cache Creek Casino Resort

I have played Yocha many times over the past years. Always enjoy my rounds. This past round was a little slower than usually. Didn’t seem to be anything other than lots of people enjoying themselves also. Don’t tell too people, but I recommend this course for any that is looking to play a fun, challenging, but fair course. That is well maintained with a staff make you feel welcomed.

Very nice layout & a nice challenge whether you play forward or back. This course is manicured but you need a good placement shot in the fairway for your approach shot. You need your approach shot to the green to be tight. This is because you may need to hit an occasional undulated fairway or blind shot & be able to putt undulated greens. Pretty much sums it up. Everyone from the greeter to the cart crew, marshall, beverage girl, proshop, restaurant & bar, starter, they were all above & beyond w/ courtesy. Good pace of place too. Keep in mind if you play back, some of the tees are being rebuilt. They look great, doing well, but still a bit soft & spongy. The fairways are like a carpet. Never once had a bad lie. Maintenance was all around watering the fairways. They would be aware of your play & make room for you to hit. Just a couple suggestions though. As nice as the greens are, the overwhelming amount of spike scrapes the closer you get to the hole as well as un-repaired ball marks all over the greens was a bit too much. This did have an effect on putting even after attempts to pat down or repair them. For a facility like this, it should be strictly enforced. Maybe the starter can mention these things including divot repair in the fairway before folks tee off and the marshalls a few times & during the round as they make a pass by now & then. I hit a couple traps, got out nice & puffy, but one looked good on the surface (& most did), but it was hard as a rock. Don’t remember the hole though. Maybe maintenance can make attempts to rake the surface of them deeper for that soft puffy bunker shot & not just the top for appearance only. Overall, a wonderful experience & I will definitely return & really look forward to it when I do.

Many holes have large swaths of ground under repair with just bare dirt awaiting new sod. It looks like someone was trying to moonwalk on many greens witb large scuff marks. We got a good deal for $80 at 1:50 pm, so it wasn't the end of the world. However, if I paid the going rate of $150+, I would of been quite frustrated and upset with the conditions.

12:10 tee time very slow front nine. Couple of marshals came out on the back nine and really made a difference last 5 holes was a pleasure to play. Love the coarse

Firstly, I usually enjoy playing this course; it’s usually in excellent shape, friendly staff from start to finish; today course management FAILED to communicate to GolfNow or to myself that the course was Cart Path Only after 11:00 am tee times in 113 degree heat. I had checked on Yocha Dehe’s website regarding course restrictions and no restrictions were noted on their website. This failure to communicate such an extreme restriction to the golfers is total disregard for the health and safety of the golfers. I understand willingness to maintain the course and prevent further damage to the fairways due to extreme heat but at what cost? Who cares about the health and safety of the golfers during these extreme restrictions? I would guess definitely not the course management.

I’ve played here twice in the last couple weeks and it’s in very good shape. The greens definitely could be a bit faster and there’s a lot of bumps and areas that could be rolled and smoothed out. The pace was bit slow and I think a big reason for it was due to the length of the rough. It could probably use a little trimming. Overall, the service was on point and a fun place to play!

3 hr back nine after 2 hr front nine A bit disappointing at 6:30 in the evening. twosome the look like they never golf before, and I believe a fivesome in front of them.

One of the best casino golf courses. Well maintained.

The course in excellent condition, fairways like a carpet. Even the tee box in excellent shape, most of golf course don't. Really enjoyed the round. Thanks for keep the golf course in decent shape.
