No Marshall / Quit before finishing

I’m requesting a refund or my money back.

Course so slow me and my partner plus the other two golfers left after the turn.

Stayed at 10 35 minutes before teeing off.

Course in great shape!

First time playing this course and heard that the storms from this season really roughed it up. I can tell you that I had no problems playing here! There were some bad spots with muddy puddles but I do not expect ot to be the best after it hs gone through a flood. Still had lots of fun and felt like a foresty hike!

Reasonably priced local course

Have played this course about once a year.

Nice reasonable priced and local

Too slow and sluggish

My tee time was 10 am n expecting to finish around 2pm but I didn’t even finish the rounding. It takes almost 5 hours and I left golf course at16 holes because it will be taken another hour.

Full 18 opener after course rebuild

Best course conditions in several years. The course was severely damaged after the major storms in Jan-March, 23. The mud has been removed and fairways reseeded. Greens also in excellent shape. The storms may have been a wake up call as the ball washers are now maintained and cold drinking water stations have been installed. Only other improvements I would recommend would be to remove the mud from side of the fairway (i.e. hole 1) and also removed downed trees and other debris. The course is already challenging enough with the creeks and large mature trees.

typical muni

Pretty flat layout, some very short par 4s. Fairway and green conditions are not very good. I did get two birdies, so I guess I shouldn't complain too much. :)

Play on Holidays

A must play on Holidays. Nobody out there

You have the course to yourself. Redwood Canyon is working very hard making great improvements. 18th hole length is extended.

Always a fun place to play. Do not pass this course up.

Not just a clever name

It really was a golf course in a canyon in the woods (although I noticed mainly oaks) , hence the name. I like it.

Front desk was friendly. Tees where a little congested but not too bad for the day of week/ holiday. Cart was in alright condition (missing some foam from the seat but clean, quick). Average course in a nice background setting,

I would say pretty beginner friendly minus a few narrow fairways. Had positive interactions with a few other groups, but didn’t like a 5 some in front of us holding play up and not seeming to care. All in all majority of people in the area seemed nice. Lots of motorcycles going by in the background but I’m used to a course near the airport so it wasn’t so bad

Range looked cool, i could see myself coming back for that or a round after checking out other courses in the area.

Greens

The majority of the greens were horrible .. Especially with the new green at #17 ... It doesn't make sense why this new green is bad ...
