This is a great 9 hole course

I always enjoy this 9 hole course. The course is always in excellent condition. It has challenging green that are typically fast for recreational standards, there is enough contour that the ability to read lines and judge speed are important, but not essential. You can just have fun laughing how far the ball rolls out if you get that wrong. Staff and course assistants are outstanding …

One of the better courses in the area.

It may just be a 9 hole but compared to some of the other courses in the Sacramento area it's quite well maintained. Pace of play can sometimes be a bit rough.

Great layout for Executive Course

Challenging layout for an "Executive" course. Water on 4 of 9 holes. Greens were in great shape, bunkers have actual sand similar to a CC course.

Traveling from AZ on a 9 hole tour. This layout and rate has this the top course on my list. Have come back now 10 + times

Greens are really smooth. Never trouble getting on and around and the folks inside are always friendly.

Amazing practice facility

Those driving by the “little” course off 99 at the Grantline exit, might not realize that, not only is the course in great condition and a serious challenge to your short game, but has a huge driving range off earth or pads, a chipping practice and a real putting practice surface. Check it out you won’t be disappointed!

Very well maintained course. Has a great driving range with covered pads or grass range to choose from. Only lacks snack bar / restaurant.
