Always nice

I used to sneak on this course before it opened and even then it felt like country club course. That was nearly 20 years ago and whenever I'm in town I still play one of the fun courses in the Bay area.

Just missed the rain

I did not look at the rain for ast and booked the day before. The rain was to start at my tee time. I tried to cancel with golf now and the website said I could not get a refund or reuse the money. The course let me go on hours before the tee time I booked and I had a great round on a beautiful course. Golf now app and customer service needs help especially if they are trying to provide a service. After 10 years its time to find a new way to book.

Mid-December golf

60 degrees and overcast. Moist conditions but cant remember running into any mud. Bunkers are in good condition and regret to say I know this from personal experience. Greens look in good condition but deceptively slow. Pace of play was three hours for a Saturday. Typical round. Left too many shots on the course. I think they got a lot out of the land they had to build this. Its a fun test at the right price. Cart lady was one of the best...made it by 4 times in a single round. bar was closing up when we got off the course at 3pm...so, BJ's down the road got our post round business.

Short but good

Par 63. It was foggy and 46-50. Pace of play was good, no hold ups. Course was in fine shape, greens were nice. Course was not "muddy" yet.

Good value, fun course to play.

My friend and I prefer this course over some other local course's near by .Pace of play on this day was great. No waiting. Weather was good, a little breezy at time's. The staff is great, beverage cart person (Krystal) was pleasant to. The green;s were in great shape. some bunker's could use more sand on some of the hole's.

Reasonably decent, but not worth a drive

If you live in the area and a fair test of your short game, Dublin Ranch does an adequate job providing that. Green complexes were interesting and varied, although very soft. And the par 3's were of different lengths and forced a variety of tee shots. Tee boxes were in good shape. Pro shop staff was friendly and helpful as was the starter.

My biggest complaint was pace of play. There was a group of 20 (5 foursomes) having some sort of outing and they took forever. We were told they were measuring out (literally with a tape measure) every putt that they had. It was insanity and the marshal didn't address this issue until well on to the back 9. The only other thing I take issue with was the condition of the sand traps. I was fortunate to have only been in the sand once in the round, but trap was full of rock, and the sand was really hard. It's not what I'd expect of an RTJ2 course. Also, the apron in front of the 16th green seems to be devoid of grass. That hole is a short par 4, playing 273 from the whites, and a good drive left a chip 15 yards in front of the green in what I think was intended to be fairway/apron and was only dirt.

On the whole, I wouldn't drive more than a few miles to play here, but if I lived nearby or happened to be back in the area, I would play here again.

Got around quickly on a Saturday afternoon

Played as a single and got around in 2 hours. Of course, it is a par 63 course with 11 par 3's, but still it was great to zip around with no waits on a Saturday.

You can hit driver on the other 7 holes, but for the most part this is a course for practicing your irons and short game.

Greens were in good condition.

I don't think Dublin Ranch is worth full price, but the GolfNow voucher made it reasonable.
