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.

Great course, but some conditions are beginning to need some help

I love this place. Staff is awesome, grass range, a couple practice greens & a practice bunker too. Enjoy the layout & the challenge they provide. It's always had great conditions. But heads up. Lately some of the fairways (patchy) & bunkers (dirt) need help. Obviously w/ winter setting in soon we can't expect the best conditions, but I've noticed this over time when in the past it's been almost pristine and why I would always return. Although I miss the conditions they had in the past, I can't wait to play again.

Nice course layout

I play Teal 3-4 times per year. Always enjoy playing the course. The right a challenge level for fun round of golf. The fairway are generous. However, if you miss the fairway, just tee another ball because you are unlikely to find a lost ball in the hazards. The par 3 greens are large.

Fun course highly recommended.

enjoyable round, but large tournament with 5.5 hour rounds backed up our start by 30 min

Course in good condition, good well kept greens, permeating urine smell in the fairways and around greens from deer mitigation we presumed. cafe was overloaded from serving tournament. no joy. no carts available before tee time and tee time backed up 30 min-

big back up at first tee- after tournament finished made the round unfinished.

Always a great course to play

Played here numerous times & always find it a great place to practice & play. This time the greens were very true. Rolled directly on line. Excellent speed, soft from watering, but still a bit fast. Just right. Great lie in the fairways. Didn't hit any traps this time, but some were a bit hard (the 4 stars) although raked (for appearence?). Need some more sand in those. Love it here & will be back.

like being in Georgia

You are in the middle of farmland and you would never know. Great layout and challenging. Don't spray the ball or you will be in dense foliage.

Great Day

My son and I started off behind a slow four

At the second hole we took a break(son looking for his golf ball). And let the 4 some go and a threesome behind us thru. After that we had a wide open relaxing day. Great course , marker, ball washers. Felt like a country club. Even has ball repair tools at many hole. Wish people repaired theirs. Really hard. Oh yea , quite dropping your disgusting cigarette butts all over

Hidden Jem

Been coming here for years and this course does not cut any corners. Always in great condition. Doesn’t feel crowded. Holes don’t overlap. You will rarely see another whole when golfing here. Lots of tree and nature!

Surprisingly good for August

I thought the course was in really good shape considering it's late August. Fairways and greens were uniformly green and well taken care of. The course still has a refreshment cart and course marshal. Two things I don't see at a lot of courses lately. Good pace, only backed up on one hole. Turned out to be a great day for golf.
