It's a tough walk, but a great course (yardage markers are the exception)

I have always enjoyed this course and the small redesign several years ago just made it much more player friendly. Course was in pretty good condition (not pristine mind you).

The downside... It's a very long walk (I went about 6 miles) because the course is spread out from green to the next tee.

AND frustratingly, the yardage is very difficult to keep track of without the usual GPS enabled carts. IMHO if they are going to keep this 18 as a walkers course they need much better markers. I got away with it because I've played here dozens of times. Otherwise, I'd probably be upset honestly.

Good to golf.

Coyote Creek is fun. Valley course was walking only and they removed all water on the course. No cart driving around either so be prepared. Would like to see them implement “ready golf” rules to avoid 4.5 hour rounds. I understand golf etiquette, but that’s for better players than the ones in front of me yesterday. Also, lost balls are not to be found, drop and we move on. Just too hot to sit behind bad players looking for balls sprayed all over the course.

NEED DRINKING WATER ON COURSE FOR WALKERS!

Good for walking and affordable golf course

It's good to play. Some windy. Cold in the early morning.

The golf course is good. However, some wind and car noise may annoy you during several front tees.

Sunday morning golf

The course is very flat and easy to walk, which was important because they did not have enough carts for both courses due to Covid which is understandable.

On this day although we teed off at 7:15am the wind was up and never let up all day. It did make several holes very difficult.

The greens were perfect and very fair. We had a lot of fun and never had to wait to hit a shot.

I’m not sure if the profile me

I have played here less then a handful of times . I want to like this place but my experience I have had each time is makes it not pleasurable to spend my money !

I feel as a Latino man they treat me differently then “ The Lighter skin”

4times I played here and how they greet and look at me makes me feel so so so uncomfortable!

I have played courses all over California and never so I feel the way I feel when I check in each 4times at coyote creek I hate to Stir the pot but it’s a feeling I have to express to others . I want to hope that it’s just me but my uncle has express the same treatment on his own outings

Wish it was different cuz I enjoy the course once I’m pass the staff and on the tee box but I think I will give my hard earned money to a course that respect my ethnicity

It was a very hot day out there today over 90° we walked and they had complimentary bottle of water for throughout the course .

Windy? Yes but...where's my ball?

Like the course and I expect it will be windy in the afternoon. My only issue is the areas off the fairway. Those areas need to be managed better. The tall (or now laid down) brown grass/weeds need to be cleared out. Playing out of these areas isn't the issue, its finding your ball. This slows down play and makes for a dissatisfying round. With the wind, invariably you will find yourself in these areas. So understand if they were better managed it wouldn't make the course easier, just more enjoyable.

Great place to play

Great play to play. Met with some friends and had a great time playing 18 holes on the valley course. Lots of opportunities to hit every club in your bag. Mostly par 4 and 5's with a few par 3's. The only downside was that no carts were available we were told that they had rented all of them, not a big deal but had to walk a lot that day. We will be returning to play again

Need to Improve

When we showed up for our 6:30 tee time there was nobody working the front desk to check us in. They finally showed up at about 6:20 and couldn’t get their system working. And instead of being apologetic about it we were met with a negative attitude.

The course itself was great. Wish the snack shack was open at the turn.

Nice layout but could be better maintained

Nice course with some water on the last few holes. Could be better maintained around the greens.
