First Time Playing

Well maintained but odd layout

The course conditions were great. Greens rolled well, the rough & fairways were well groomed, and bunkers well maintained. It’s just an odd layout with fairways so close together. Dealt with a lot of errant shots from adjacent fairways coming too close for comfort. It is also a layout that you really need to know where to place your tee shots to be able to have clear approaches to the green - driver not always the best club off the tee.

Great Value

Course is always in good shape. Sometimes greens get a little furry, but it's more weather related than upkeep. Staff is always friendly. It's a 1/2 drive for me but it's still the best value in Sacramento area.

Ok Round of Golf

They had recently sanded the greens, and as a result putting was a mess. In addition, the grounds keepers were constantly in the way tending to the greens. Some seemed a bit stressed out trying to get work accomplished while having to avoid golfers.

Enjoy playing this course

I have played this course many times. Not in the greatest condition, but very playable. The greens are always a little spongy, meaning you may not get a consistant roll on the greens. Greens can be hard to read. They do not "roll" the greens here--they just cut them. But the greens are in very good condition at this time of year for the hot summer months. I did NOT encounter any mosquitos this day, being that the course is next to a river. Always a good idea to bring bug spray or bug cream though just in case. I had a nice round. Sand traps in very good condition. Teeing areas can be improved though.

Very Good Day of Golf

Had a great time. The course was in good shape. The greens were soft and good for scoring. The weather was in the mid nineties, but not too hot.

Mid Week Golf

Thinking Wednesday would be good to play booked a tee time for 1016a. Conditions of the fairways and greens were good considering mid August times usually mean drier conditions. Greens were soft and playable. Always enjoy my round here. However, today was horrible due to slow play. Tee time at 1016a didn't finish until 245pm. 4.5 hours to play with no Marshall in sight in bad. Yes it's Wednesday but the ones slowing up play wasn't new players or hackers. It was the old group, walking, waiting to hit until the greens clear and not even getting close to GIR. They weren't even trying to set their shots up until all clear. What a waste.
