Best course in Bakersfield
One of my favorite courses in Bakersfield nicest landscape and greens
Back 9 Twice
Arrived to learn they were sanding the greens on the front so we would be playing the back 2x. No big deal. Just got new clubs and wanted to hit them. Met a nice couple and enjoyed the day. Finished in just under 4 hours. I'll be back in a couple weeks after the greens have had time to recover. Fairways were in good shape.
Great Course
We had a really good time. The course was well maintained. The Golf Marshall was a little grumpy.
Best public course
This course has been given alot of attention to the conditions of the course. Fast yet true rolling greens lots some of the longest par 3s in the county. Being able to get a cart for 18 holes for under 30 dollars is a score definitely worth a play.
Not a great Saturday
We had an 11:20 tee time. The group 2 in front of us was a 4-some of guys that had NEVER played before. Two groups in front of them was a group of 6. Never seen that on a Saturday. Waited for every shot. If the course was in great shape it would have been worth waiting. That was not the case. When we got to 14 we saw there were 4 groups waiting to play 17 so we went up 15 and headed in. Won't go there again.
The greens were in great shape, speed was consistent
Just another municipal course
Nothing special, not a real value for the dollar, the staff was just a staff, greens are not taken care of. Some clown with a stick and a poker at the end of it was hanging out at the side of two different greens that I'm trying to approach. Maybe he was there to clean up the greens but he was still in my way. I'm sure when I can't get a tee time I will go out there again but since I was asked for a review here it is
Friendly Public Course.
Friendly little municipal course in an interesting setting. Greens were solid. Fairways and tees were a little ragged. Holes were challenging.
