Bad condition

This was the worst condition my wife and I have seen at this course. Dead areas on the greens and unkept sand traps. Bare areas along the fairways. The staff was apologetic but they could not overcome the above issues. Would only play again if the above issues are resolved.

Thank you for reviewing the course. Let us first start by apologizing for the poor experience you had during your visit. The current condition is by no means the standard we strive to achieve, and our staff is working hard to get everything back to great conditions. Thank you for playing Dublin Ranch Golf Course. We hope to see you again soon.

Absolutely, positively the worst maintenanced course in norcal

I'm going to start this off by saying . . DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY HERE. You're better off throwing in the lottery or better yet in the trash. Previous to my outing on the 24th of October I really wasn't a fan of this place. Ive played here a handful of times and never have I never seen a course, more specifically the greens, in such poor shape. The greens looked and played like you were in the sand trap. It was obvious that they punched the greens within the last week or 2 but this was way worse that just punched greens. And I'm okay with punched greens. But these greens were patchy. Massive portions of the green didn't even have grass growing. It was so bad that you were putting 5 footers like they were 12-15 feet.

Long story short, it was insulting they charged full price, I think it was 65$ total, they could atleast give you a heads up and say something like "just so you know sir, we are letting the greens die... we got a fungus they are in rough shape. Oh and your round is discounted 15$". I mean even a sleeve of balls would do lol Long story short do not waste your money here. Play the Las positas 9 hole course back to back and you'll have a better day for a 3rd the price. Thats my speel, happy golfing! Hit em long and straight.

Trash greens

I’ve played here a few times before today, and never had any issues with the conditions. Today, all of the greens were terrible. There was chunks of grass taken out of the greens which made it hard to think about how to putt the ball. Holes that should have been 2 putts turned in to 3-4. I’m not going to come back until 2021 sometime. Hopefully this problem will be fixed in the next couple of months.

Perfect weather

I've played here a few times before early in the morning like today, but never remember it being so muddy with no rain - could not keep the cleats clean at all. The greens are simply not good - no fun to putt. It would still be okay for a quick morning round (mainly because we were actually able to get a tee time) if they would simply put some groups together, instead of letting so many singles and doubles out. We played bogey golf in a threesome at 3 hours, but had to let two singles play through and had at least 3 doubles behind us waiting. It's not fun when you always feel like you are holding others up. There is no reason why a single could not have been put with us, and the doubles in the groups behind combined into a couple foursomes. It would have done nothing to the overall pace of play for everyone.

Terrible greens

Almost of greens on this course were in terrible condition. The layout was ok, a lot of par 3s I was expecting some more long par 4s and 5s. The staff were friendly. For the price it wasn’t bad. But the course overall seemed pretty beat up not sure if it’s due to the surge in first time golfers or it being the end of summer or what. I would like to try this course again in the spring time to see if it’s any better.

A decent track left to rot in COVID

I write this with a heavy heart because I used to enjoy this course. It was always a fun one to play and a good place to work on irons. The green used to be in good shape. The greens seem to be diseased and management has not been able to get it under control. Many greens are covered with large dirt/sand spots with zero grass on it. It's just sad. Absolutely not worth 62 dollars during primetime.

It was fun but...

The greens were in rough shape! I should have made way more putts but they were so choppy that my ball just bounced all around... it was a fun course though! Had a good time! But the greens made it tough! And there was no forgiveness as far as softness of greens or fairway... even if you hit a nice lofty shot, the green just made it roll for a mile!

This course sucks

After playing golf all over the world over the past 55 years I have never played a course in such bad condition. Absolutely the worse course condition from tee to green I have ever experienced . The greens were reduced to dirt and grass patches that had not been mowed for days. OVERALL CONDITION WAS AND IS UNACCEPTABLE. Free is an excessive fee to charge for this cow pasture that is being passed off as a golf course.

Would like money back

The course had the back 9 shut down. We were only allowed to play the front 9 twice. The pace of play was as slow as it gets. The greens were air-rated and dead. Worst greens I had ever played on in my life! Wish I could get my money back..

Seen better days

The course is in bad shape. Brown spots on the greens, dead patches every where else.

The kicker was the front nine was being airated so the eighteen holes where all played on the back. Crowded and confused. No mention of this calamity when booking.

Still had a good time.
