Excellent county course
This is a really nice county owned course, and it is in very good condition. Very playable for all skill levels, so all should enjoy a nice round of golf.
Best public course in Bakersfield
Much better staff and course then riverlakes. They take care of the course and have a fun design
Fun course to play
Course is in good condition excellent greens good course lay out
Great course
Because of Corona time too many people but when it’s gone I will come back again.
Good Value because long holes
Enjoy playing Kern River because there are plenty of long holes. Usually it plays slow because many come out to try and beat this tough course. No water and few OB. But plenty of sand traps well placed.
YAAY For Golf!
This course was very enjoyable to play. It is a very open course, not much for hazards or rough and absolutely no water so quite difficult to lose a ball. The greens were in amazing shape and the sand was really clean. Very challenging par 3’s. We would definitely come back and play this course again.
Nice layout
Never played here before and consider myself a beginner golfer. The layout was nice and made for a great day. Made some new friends in the process. too. A few of the greens were a little rough due to aeration but was not an issue.
I would definitely play here again!
Always fun
Easy straight forward course! Always a bargain with the Hot Deals!
Great course
The course was nice, besides the sandbagging group of 6 guys ahead of us! Besides that overall course was fun!
Great Course
This place is a fun place to play. Challenging, long par 3s, and the greens are FAST right now. I played by myself. Several groups let me play through and I was done in about 3 hours.
Nice course for a decent price
i play this course with few of my friends about once a month. This course is in much better condition since the new management team took over i think about a year ago. Greens are green like they should be and fairly smooth. Most of the fairways are now pretty well kept. golfnow has promotion on this course but sometime it is only for 1 or 2 players so if you have 4 some, you might have to split up the group.
Kern River Golf
This course is in the best shape it has been in 20 years. I have been playing this course for that many years. Great job grounds crew.
Yellow grass fairways
I'm sure sometimes this is a nice course but today it wasn't. Pace of play was okay however the fairways have huge dead spots in them. As I was walking by a bunker and noticed there was nice looking sand. The tee boxes are very rough. the greens were nice and fast however very bumpy and hard to read when they get that way. Overall experience thumbs down.
