Plumas Lake Golf & Country Club

Positive: finished in 3.5 hrs with cart and weather was nice.

Negative: Far off the main road. Typical valley course; flat and a bit boring. Tee boxes were fair but distance between white, black etc tees was minimal at many holes. Fairways were thin dead Bermuda grass with many lies hitting off wet clay mud. If you got off the main fairway into the "rough" right or left, it was hitting on relatively short grass and a much better lie.

Natural drainage ways had been cleared of natural vegetation, so some of the challenge and course ambiance was removed. Some greens had steep slopes. On the front nine, one green had a bowl shape. Several greens felt like playing at a miniature golf course with the multi levels and hole placement at the top edge of a slope. Once at Plumas Lakes is enough for me. I will pay more money for a better experience.

Enjoy this course a lot- great staff, always friendly.

Got paired up with thee guys, all very nice, pretty darn cold day but the course was in good shape regardless.

Bad score, but great day!

This was a very well-maintained coursefor the price it was well worth the playI will come back and play this course again

For a course built in the 1920's its in really good shape. Trees line the fairways on both sides. A few holes are straight ahead a few dogleg. Good challenge for intermediate player..Book with golf now can't go wrong on the price

The course is not particularly long at 6400 yards from the tips, but the tree-lined fairways and undulating smallish greens make for challenging golf. You will need to play at least one round to determine course management as there are some severe doglegged holes and unseen water hazards from the tee boxes.

Overall the course was is very good condition.

The greens were in good shape / good speed

The bunkers were in great shape a lot of sand.

The staff was very friendly and helpful

Playing from the blue tees were tougher

Play from the white tees if your a bogey golfer

Closest course to me and I enjoy playing it well taken care of and great customer service

Course is in very good shape. Greens are fast and true, with a few ball marks here and there. Overall, don't know that I have seen this course in better shape. Pretty wet early, so keep it in the short grass.

The Course can get tattered after a summer of a lot of play but I found it to be in excellent condition with the greens in great shape and fast. It seems like a simple course but a number better players than me find it difficult. They have trees there from all over that are hard for knowledgeable people to identify. Lots of beautiful Cork Oaks if you've never seen where your wine stopper comes from.

Greens are a little rough,very sloped!a lot of pin placements are stupid,on side of slopes!fun day though.save ridiculous pin placements for tournaments,not the first time!

On my drive home from Paradise, CA to Newark, CA I took the advice of a blackjack player at Feather Falls to play this course. The night before I looked at the reviews and they were spot on. So I'm thinking out in the boondocks in farm country I'm gonna get a nice flat, easy layout. Well let's start with #1, 430 yards, wow, okay double bogey but the hard one is out of the way. #2, driver, 3-wood, yikes this is a beast. #3, par 3 and I get a hole-in-one. Well, kind of, throughout the course are these larger holes to the sides of greens, an I knocked it into the hole. I later come to find out these might possible for a new craze involving a soccer ball and golf. Well, 18 holes and by the end I wanted to go to the clubhouse and ask the guy, "If someone came to you and asked you to take them to the easy hole, where would you take them." This is a beast of a course, so no whining and expect bogeys, doubles and triples. I absolutely loved this course, even the holes in regulation holes had subtle breaks making the putting difficult. I completely agree with a review I saw stating that when the course was laid out in 1926 it was built for 2014 trees, but it's not like you can't see them. There were a couple of holes with hidden water obstacles so the second time around should be better. Another review said don't miss the turn off, I'm still a little confused how to get to this course from Hiway 70. If you enjoy beating yourself up and not taking things too seriously I think this is a great stop on the way up to Chico. Next time I'm setting personal par and not expecting more than 4 or 5 pars. I hope you enjoy this course. BTW, I started after 2:00 and was done by 5:30, a good day.

Had a great time playing this course.. In good condition and for the price couldn't beat it. Will come again.

I enjoy playing on this golf corse!i deffenely will be back thank u!!

Nice layout, challenging holes...a bit of a drive from Sacramento but not too bad

Sand Traps are to large and it makes it difficult for the average golfed but course was in great shape and enjoyed our round and will be back.

Slow play but course was in good condition and the staff is always friendly. That keep me coming back. I can't wait to play next week!

Could it be?

Yes, beautiful, sprawling, open spaces. Excellent conditions, beautiful architecture, challenging greens...quick and undulating, bowls and slopes. Well groomed, level tee boxes. Most fairways wide and accepting of your driver, but a strategic 3 Metal, or 4 Hybrid make sense on some holes (tighter landing area or dog legs).

Could've, would've, should've broke 90, but... :-)

Coming from Sac Metro area it's about 45 min without traffic, so doable. Played on a Tuesday to beat the crowd and was pleased as punch.

Play it!

Blue Tees: Rating/Slope/Yardage 71.9/125/6,422

The course is well maintained. The greens are firm and fast, the ball rolls very true. Some of the best sand traps anywhere (real sand)! There are a few dog legs left and right where you have to lay up or if you can shape your shot go for it. Some long and narrow par 4's where you need to be well positioned for your next shot. Loved playing this course.

The greens are challenging. There are not level on any green. Lots of break to work with.

Good course, well established, challenging with the mature trees.
