Type Public
Par 72
Length 7035 yards
Slope 132
Rating 73.6

Teal Bend Golf Club runs alongside the Sacramento River, enjoying a lush landscape covered in natural wetlands. One of the characteristics the course is known for is its stunning scenery, which works against the challenging layout by being almost too distracting. All of your attention will have to be focused on successfully maneuvering past the mature trees and natural rough areas that sit along the edges of the undulating greens and narrow, winding fairways. Long hitters will enjoy this golf course, which stretches to 7,000 yards from the back tees. There are also some interesting risk/reward holes that will appeal to both low and high handicappers, which is why it is one of Sacramento's most popular public courses. The well maintained driving range is also a popular feature at Teal Bend Golf Club.

Solid Course

Use the bug spray. Greens were punched the day before which we were already aware of but overall course was nice, not overly challenging as far as hazards

Hot and sweaty @ the Bend

I really enjoy the layout of this course, the only thing I worry about is with all the mistletoe on the trees, is the course going to turn into a links after trees die off?

Great shape

Greens were great even with the heat. Tee boxes, fairways & even the bunkers are in good shape.

Play was a little slow though. Only bad thing about the course & it wasn't that bad.

Looking for a golf course to get a nice 18 holes in, then this is your place. I would of liked a little more to the place, seemed a little too simple for nicer golf couse.
