Emerald Lakes was a victim of a flood in 2016 but quickly recovered and was in great shape for 2017 Photo submitted by u000003849698 on 03/29/2018
Better than ever
This course is playing as well as any in Sacramento. Great conditions all around. Don’t let the 9 hole short course fool you, there are plenty of challenges. Greens are in great shape, big, and none of them flat.
Hi er7333. Thank you so much for the great review. We are glad you had an incredible time, and we hope to see you again soon! Thanks for choosing Emerald Lakes Golf Center.

Awesome. Golf Marshall gave my granddaughter a putter. The front desk was incredible.
Hi MarkHurst. We appreciate you leaving a review and rating us. We will inform the entire team, so they know their hard work is paying off. We look forward to having you back at Emerald Lakes Golf Center!
First ones to play this course since re-opening.
First time playing at Emerald Lakes, always wanted to try since driving by it on the freeway many times. Very impressed by the conditions of tee boxes, fairways and especially the greens! Just wish it was 18 holes instead of 9. If you haven't been you should go. Not an executive 9 holer either.
dwwarner707, thank you for your kind words! We hope to see you again at the course very soon for another 5-star experience. Thanks for choosing Emerald Lakes Golf Center.

Love this course would play it every day if I could
Thank you for your review, Brooklyn5quincy. We will pass along your positive experience to our team at Emerald Lakes Golf Center. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
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
Hi u000003849698. We appreciate you taking the time to review the course and rate us. Thank you for the 4 stars! We aim for a 5-star experience, so we always welcome feedback for improvement. Thank you for playing Emerald Lakes Golf Center!
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!
