Home alway from home
Love this course would play it every day if I could
Very well kept course and greens
First time playing here and I am pretty impressed, for a public city course the staff take very good care of the course as a whole. Greens are firm and fast! If this was an 18 whole course it’d be one ☝️ f the best in the area condition wise. Good job Emerald Lakes! I will be back.
Thank you for taking the time to review us Adaz25. Your feedback is valuable, and we look forward to delivering you excellent service again soon. Emerald Lakes Golf Center thanks you!
Perfect course
This course is perfect. Not too hard to discourage and not too easy to bore. This is the first course I ever played and I go back from time to time to test my skill.
Hello and thank you for your 5-star rating, Dale1111111111111111! We're delighted you enjoyed your round. Please book another round with us soon, and thanks for choosing Emerald Lakes Golf Center!
Emerald is a gem
This course is the closest to my house so I play there at least once a month. It is always in great shape. The greens may be the best in all Sacramento. And, the green fees are a great value. My only negative is that the course lacks imagination with the exception of #9, which is a challenge. Would like to see an expansion to the other side of the freeway and create a 2nd nine holes. With this maintenance staff and a willingness of CSD to invest in a local golf course, a full 18-hole Emerald Lakes would be the area’s top course

The course is in great condition
I’ve been playing Emerald Lakes for over 20 years now, and today was the best day ever. I played the course today because I knew it wouldn’t be crowded (rain and windy) and I got a deal for $15 bucks. The boxes were in good condition and the greens were excellent. I spoke with the Marshall and told him to give the grounds crew props for the work they’ve done on this course. Many years ago the course didn’t have a cart path but today it’s present and worked well since it was cart paths only and this course is always challenging. Holes #4, 5, 6, 8, and 9 were fantastic.

Great course!
This is a well kept reasonably challenging course. Friendly staff and a great driving range. If it was an 18 hole course it would be my favorite!

Pro Shop staff very rude
Tried to make tee two tee times directly one week prior. Woman in shop said they didnt have anything available. I literally walked out of pro shop and booked them on golfnow. Not the first time this has happened with same employee.
Upon arrival for todays rounds, other pro shop employee said there may not be carts. I didnt hear the question so I asked and the woman (who couldnt book the tee times previous week) said very sarcastically “or you can walk.” I like the course and most employees but this one has left a very bad impression on several occasions. I have never complained or been rude in the past. Unsure why she seems so un-accomidating.
We strive to make everyone's visit a great one. Unfortunately we had an incident. The employee mentioned is no longer a part of our team. We have reminded all staff working at Emerald Lakes the customer must always come first and will be treated with the upmost respect and courtesy. We are truly sorry for this incident and we will do everything possible to ensure this does not happen again.
Emerald experience
This is the best maintained corse in the sac valley. Greens are fast and true . Course can be very tough though if you aren’t accurate either driver and wedge lots of water. Course needs a real club house. Driving range very good...
Thank you for your 5-star rating! Please book another round with us soon at Emerald Lakes Golf Center!

Great First Experience
I am a happy patron, my 7 year old son got to play golf for the first time ever. The course is a perfect starter coarse for anyone learning to play. Short yardage, flat terrain, well maintained playing surfaces and 9 holes made for a perfect place to have my son learn the game. The play was really slow due to a couple inexperienced groups in front of us, but that allowed for time to teach my son the etiquette of the game. All in all, The course is in great shape and a great place to play a fast 9 and get in some good practice.

Greens tough but fair
This course is in great shape. A great value for your dollar and quick pace. The rough is a bit unforgiving, but stay in the fairways to avoid that issue. The sand in the traps is new and nice. A great round. Thank you to the crew there, they are keeping it awesome!
Rushed through this course
Very disappointing. Golf cart was taken by someone else. Rushed through the whole course by the Marshall. I had major anxiety. We will NOT be returning. The course is also under high power lines and had a helicopter flying above the entire time.
Great condition, fast greens, done fast
Have always wanted to play this highway-adjacent 9 holer and got off on a weekday at about 6:30 am. There was one twosome a few holes ahead of me so my pace of place was awesome and at my own leisure. I played a couple balls on each hole and was done 75 minutes.
The greens were freshly cut and FAST. Might the best muni course/executive course greens I have ever been on. Layout was perfect for beginners put challenging enough to keep a scratch player interested. There are some power lines and towers running through the course but I think its kind of cool and gives the course character.
Gentleman in the shop was very nice and helped me out when I lost my credit card on the course.
All in all a really nice experience. I will definitely be coming back!
Very fun game today.
Course in great shape. The pace if the game was very satisfactory. Thank you.
