Lake Chabot Golf Course - The 18 Hole Course
About
Situated within the Oakland Hills, Lake Chabot Golf Course offers stunning views that stretch across Oakland, Bay Bridge, and the Lake Chabot area. The course has been a local favorite since it first opened in 1932. Slight changes have been made over the years to improve the layout but it has always maintained its playability. The terrain is hilly, which makes flat lies hard to find. Accuracy and precise shot placement will get you far. The stretch of holes from the 15th to the finish has the best scenery on the golf course. From the risk-reward 15th hole, you can see all the way to San Francisco. The unique final hole is a par 6 that plays to a whopping 673 yards from the back tees. It's a straight, downhill hole with a memorable view.

Golfer Reviews
Super fun course with great company
Always love the layout at Chabot and got paired with 2 locals who were good golfers and better company.
Super fun holes and greens were in good shape
Need improvment
Fairways T box Green and bunkers all need work
It seems it is poorly maintained and too many holes crisscrossed making too many players yelling For.
Ball are always get plugged on sand traps
Too many Ball marks on the greens
Bad fairways
Beat up T boxes
Fun
Pace of play was great- 4hours on a Thursday morning. Greens were pretty smooth, although slow. Fairways were so-so. I like the new temporary clubhouse- it's nicer than the old clubhouse. Staff are friendly. No beverage cart out that day. Biggest complaint is the cart paths- it's like driving over a road that's been bombed out. Very jolting and can't be good for the carts. Otherwise had a great time.
Great value! Great views!
Good value for $39 with a cart!
All straight holes, just keep it in the fairway.
Par 6 is crazy, just watch your speed on the switch back
Fun Course
First time playing this course and I will definitely be back. I enjoyed the different elevations for each hole, made the round more enjoyable and kept me involved. I truly enjoyed the par 6, 18th hole.
Flag colors and placement
Hole 8 flag color was white should have been red.
Hole 10 flag was red should have been blue .
Group. Front of us didn't utilize fair way clear to lay. Never read signs at each of the two holes. We hit into them both times.
Course in great shape!
Very nice Muni Course I've played for several years. Fairways and greens were in great shape. Greens rolled very well and were in great shape for a Muni.
Slooow
The views are tremendous. But the course is run down and the play level is poor. More beer drinkers than golfers, which is fine, but no idea how to keep pace. Cart paths were last replaced in the 1970s. Tee boxes akin to a DMZ. I want to like it but a 5.5 hour round is just a bummer.
Played on newly aerated greens.
Perfect time for fast game and golf shots testing. Best score ever for a high handicap, with 4 birdies on the round of 75. Love the course's challenge.
