Brentwood Golf Club - Creekside/Hillside Course

I used to play Diable frequently but they've let it deteriorate to such a condition that most fairways are barren with the right side of the 4th hole is cracked earth like in a desert. I could go into detail but why? The city of Brentwood has let it's ONLY remaining golf course go back to the field from whence it came. First Shadow Lakes, then Roddy Ranch and DeerRidge. Is Brentwood next? I will not play any of the three nines until some drastic changes are made!!!

Sometimes when we play on this golf course, We touch all the balls on the fairway. And when the ball enters the bunker, take it out and hit it.

Tough course to play.. in some Andrea are so muddy..Driving range has been closed down due to the construction.. it was my big disappointment!!

I’ve played this course since it opened. Moved out of area and had the chance to play again. I guess it’s been through multiple owners all of which are South Koreans with no ties to the local community. Ponds are empty which is causing the local beautiful wildlife to go other places. The fairways are in bad bad shape. Greens were decent, no real complaints. The pace on the back 9 Hillside was snail pace. No Marshall keeping the pace of play up. If the potential could be restored to its past glory & beauty this place would be worth the $50... plays more at $25.

New ownership. The course is over watered and soggy. Fairways need a lot of work. Greens are real nice! Tee boxes in good condition. I would like to see how the renovations continue under the new ownership. as the course is over priced for its current condition.

I went out as a single met the other three people at my tee time made a foursome,all courses are starting to get slow around here, but to see seven people in a group playing, I don't usually call , he tells me he's the only guy there and the cart boy, nothing he can do. With that on top of the condition of the course, I'll go elsewhere.

5.5 hours and no where to go. Creek and hills course no Marshalls behind a 5 some hacking their way across the course. Greens were good. Winter fairways. Love the course layout actually one of the best in the area. Wish they had a better greens keeper who could manage the course and optimize water usage.

Five years the course was much better conditions. The tees really had not grass growing. Dead brown spots in the fairway. The course sand traps have not been rakes

But the course is fully booked every day. A great deal of play. The money does not appear to be going to course upkeep

I've played this course at least 30 times and it has gotten progressively worse. The fairways are terrible and the traps have been in poor shape for the past 2 years or longer. The greens are ok. I was disappointed the past 3 or 4 times I played this course. Unfortunately, Brentwood used to be a golfing mecca, but with the closing of 3 great courses, things have slipped drastically.

Hasn't rained in several week and yet the course is very muddy. Seems to be over watered in several areas of course. Played last month and still very muddy.

I have played Brentwood a number of times over the years since they opened. The course always provided challenges with its narrow fairways and approaches to the greens. However, time has not been kind to the course (and the lack of watering, care, and packing in the tee times). With the closure of Roddy Ranch, Deer Ridge, and Shadow Lakes, it was expected that Brentwood Golf Course would step up with the extra amount of play and make their course pristine. Unfortunately, this is not the case and the moment I stepped onto the course after two years of being away, I felt like I was playing in a pasture that was mowed. Amidst the barren spots, my group was continually having to move our ball to small patches of grass that were sparse. The course should have notified all golfers that the entire course was to be considered as "ground under repair." Outside of the course maintenance, the pace of play was terrible. We teed off at 12:20 and managed to play 13 holes. Not only was the course stacked up, no marshall was out to maintain the pace of play. Now, there is COVID, drought, economy...and I understand all of this, but there should be a level of pride, upkeep, and shared information. I hope Brentwood is able to make some changes.

Course isn’t in great condition though the greens are generally good. Tees are torn up and today the women’s tees were rarely on a tee box - they were usually just in front and not in a good position. Lots of over wet areas and most were not marked as GUR. Pretty slow even though most people were driving on the fairway though it was clearly marked to stay off.

I decided to play this course because we are thinking of relocating to this area. This is the only public course open in Brentwood so if I relocate here this would be the course I would play on a regular basis. Let’s just say I was very disappointed that this is all this area offers when it come to public golf courses. I understand Brentwood used to have 2 other courses that closed in the last 2 years. I feel sorry for residents that bought homes on these courses and avid golfers in this area. Brentwood Golf Club has so much potential to be a nice course. Below is a list of problems I noticed while playing the course -

1. All fairways are in really bad shape, more dirt/mud than grass

2. Ponds have major toxic algae

3. Bunkers are dirt with rocks and no sand

4. There is 1 dilapidated un kept out house on the course for all 18 holes

5. The course layout is you start at the 1st hole by the clubhouse and finish at the 18th hole back at the clubhouse so you better pack extra food and drinks because you can’t get any at the turn

6. No food/beverage cart out on the course which would help with the above.... maybe that’s why they have only 1 outhouse on the course

In conclusion I currently live in Dublin, Ca. There are many quality well maintained courses in this area, I feel spoiled. Not to sure if I want to relocate to the Brentwood area now and I definitely won’t play this course again until the management makes some major changes.

Sad to say the course is in need of serious work. Others note that and the course says they are working on it. Need extreme amount of reseeding the fairways and roughs and not water so much to create mud on what grass there is. Sad the driving range is closed. This once was a pristine course for all 3 nines. Feel sorry for the summerset residents who have seen Thai go down hill but sad for all of brentwood to also have deer ridge a d shadow lakes be closed

The course was a great price, but it’s not marked very well and it was water logged and muddy everywhere. It’s rained 3 times in the last month guys, cool it on the sprinklers and save some money for signs and markers.
