Too Slow @ Dragonfly

Enjoyed a really fun day of golf at a Fantastic Golf Course. My only complaint is slow play, which is normally the case when I play Dragonfly. Otherwise a Great Day!

Great Golf Course

Had an enjoyable day playing Dragonfly. Course was in decent shape but greens rolling a bit rough we had a crew directly in front of us on almost ever hole which was annoying.

Otherwise a Great Day!

Nice place to play !

Very fortunate to have a course like Dragonfly in the Central Valley. The course improvements are very noticeable. Much easier to find a stray ball.

Amazing tight fairways provide really nice lies all the time. Highly recommended this course 🏌️‍♀️👍

Nice Day @ Dragonfly

I hadn’t played at Dragonfly since April & it is such an enjoyable course to play! Course conditions have improved but greens were not up to Dragonfly standards a little rough & bumpy. Also the pace of play a bit slow. But overall a really great day on the course!

Beautiful course! Highly recommended

Absolutely great course!! Greens play crazy fast for being one of the longest courses in California! Amazing Hot Deal through GolfNow. Golf carts were clean, GPS on the carts is always a great perk, cart girl came around a few times. Loved it!

Great time

The back 9 was closed for spraying the greens.

Kinda of a bummer but also enjoyed play the front 9 twice. Whites then blues to mix things up.

The fairways are mowed very tight, the ball rolls and rolls! I like that 👍

Greens were still recovering from punching, but still very playable. Big greens are really nice. Will definitely play again soon.

Incredible course, fun, challenging, great distance chiices

The course is a sleeper. Amazing course. Fun to play Only negative is the players do not fix enough divots on the green. Or rake traps after use. But the course and staff are amazing

Trip golf

This course is a must play. The staff are super helpful and friendly. The course has something for everyone. I do enjoy ordering food and drinks delivered to you as play proceeds. Even bought a logo shirt to show off on my return home. Looking forward to next adventure.

Greens need help

Not sure what their long term goal is for the greens but all summer they have been overgrown and this time around bumpy and patchy. Hopefully it’s preparation for 2025 but probably won’t play again until the greens are maintained. Otherwise, course is in great shape and pace of play was well worth it
