Nice course -getting expensive and no monitoring for slow playing

The course is in great shape. Greens are nice, same as fairways. Very enjoyable. However prices are getting a bit high for this kind of course. If you get a foursome that is too slow you will not finish your round, no one monitors pace of play or make a point to ask players to keep with group in front.

Marshals do not manage pace of play

It would help a lot if marshals keep checking on the pace of play.

Goose droppings and garbage smell

Very underwhelmed with the track. The aroma of garbage seems appropriate given the goose feces all over the track. The layout was decent and the greens were good (8~ on the stimp), but pace of play was horrendously slow.

This course is great but does not match GolfNow price

I paid for the hot deal that included a golf cart but when I arrived, they told me that the GolfNow price was incorrect and that I would have to pay an additional cart fee.

The course is great for the price. A lot of geese and droppings but overall not a bad course for $40 (plus cart fee at check in).

Great All Day Fun

If choose to spend a weekend trip here or you are a regular player here the fun is real. Lots of playing room for all levels of play. Don’t fear the wind. It is part of the regular Bay Area conditions.

Well manicured greens. The use of all your clubs is important. Come out and play this legendary course.
