Alta Sierra Country Club

Great layout greens were in great shape, but 5 hours 20 min!!! There were Marshall’s out but to no affect. Loved the layout and scenery but 5 hours 20 min!!!!

As always the course was in excellent shape!!! Unfortunately maybe Alta Sierra's management & board members should have seminars/classes on golf course etiquette!!??!! I was playing as a public single behind a threesome to start, the course was fairly busy!! So I assumed that they would ask me to join their group or at least let me play through(neither occurred)??!!?? At the end of the front nine one member of the group stopped play, which they became a twosome,,, again assuming true golf etiquette I was expecting them to say something or let me play through,,,, but nope they just kept playing and holding my game up!!??!! 🤔🤔😡😡🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Beautiful day, beautiful course. Greens are good, but tough to read. Be prepared to fooled by some of the breaks!

The day started with a triple AAA and then started going downhill at the 2nd as two unethical and inconsiderate old couple (who looked to be still 10 years younger than me) decided to drag on. Very very slowly they would go up to the tee boxes, several practice swings slowly and then hit towards left or right , sometimes the ball disappeared into the woods or grass. Looking for the ball for what seems to us an eternity. By the time we reached the fourth hole, we were behind the schedule by 45 minutes, and their front group putted out some minutes earlier. When we agonized for over 5hrs. 29 minutes, we realized that it was the longest 72 pars, riding a cart, in our 29 years of playing golf.

It was sad to see some ridiculous person didn’t have any sports manners or at least some human decency rather than being such selfish. The perfect weather, one of the most well designed course configurations, beautiful scenery and the fantastic professional services were all ruined by just one couple whose intention or interest in the game are gravely questionable. I will wait to play there until I can read several wonderful reviews posted. I feel with the pro shop staff who have been doing just wonderful job to assist the golfers.

Fun course, got slowed down about halfway through. Heard that's typical at that course. Won't stop us from coming back though.

Been getting out to other courses so we don't get stuck in a rut of playing the same 3 courses all the time. Alta Sierra was a breath of fresh air. We were the first pair of the morning, so the pace of play was up to us. There was one pair (probably regulars) who went around us on the 3rd hole, and they stayed well ahead of us. Never had anyone else behind us, so it was stress free. Grounds are well kept and the greens were slow with the morning dew but sped up as the day progressed. Some greens are hard to gauge the slope, but none of them have impossible slope. Not an easy course by any stretch, but I played one of my better rounds there. The hills make yardage tricky to figure out, but also make this course what it is. There are some houses near some of the fairways, but not so close that you have to worry about hitting them unless you really shank it.

We arrived about 15 minutes early, but the pro shop didn't open until 3 minutes before our round. No snacks and only bottles of water available, so my friend was glad I had a backup protein bar in my bag. The young man at the counter could have also benefited from some customer service training, but he was kind "enough".

Our cart was in great condition and had plenty of power to handle all the hills. Probably one of the better carts I've had vs other courses.

11 is a dogleg right that is sharper than appears. Lost a ball on that one that I thought for sure was center fairway. 18 is hard to see the green on approach, and it is much further right than it would seem if you can't see it.

Plenty of geese, squirrels, and we even had a group of deer join us on a hole.

very slow as usual, nice greens but slow!!! poor collars. scenery the best. I am older but i still love the game.

Alta Sierra was Alot of Fun. I played by myself and enjoyed the course. I Played Winchester the week before and paid $150.00. I won't be doing that again. I can play Alta Sierra 5 times for that, kind of noney.

The layout of this course is great, and it’s close to home for me. However, pace of play is always an issue. There are marshals out there but don’t really seem to say much. My recommendation is going very early or late evening.
