Must Play

I play here quite often and the course is always in great shape. In my opinion very close to and private club in the area. It’s part of a retirement community so tee times go quick. Due to the rain, it was cat path only and we tee’d off at 1:00 and we were able to finish, barely!

Timber Creek is best maintained course in area with excellent practice areas

I love Timber Creek; it’s a moderately challenging course that is fair; if you’re hitting the ball well and straight, you can get a low score, but if not, it will punish you. Timber Creek is typically the best maintained in Sacramento area. The front nine is mostly open with some water hazards while the back nine is a bit tighter and tree lined.. The practice areas have been recently upgraded and are excellent. There was a few bare spots in the fairways, which isn’t typical, but I assume that’s because we’re rolling into winter. The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this course.

A Very Good Experience

Front 9 good but back 9 excellent. New driving range and chipping area are great improvements over predecessor.

Only criticism is to much golf cart confusion in and around the pro shop and restaurant. Seniors driving full speed and coming from all angles makes for anxious self preservation.

Overall very good experience and I would recommend to my friends.

Timber Creek among best in Sacramento area

I really like this course; always the best maintained course in Sacramento area. First 9 is mostly open with some water in play. 2nd 9 has more trees and narrow fairways on a few holes. Not overly long (6,050 yards from Blue tees) but just enough trouble to keep you honest. A couple of bare spots in fairways and green repairs going on but otherwise great condition including bunkers, etc. Newly revamped practice area with excellent chipping area included (sand shots too). Putting green much slower than actual greens due to it being new (now mowing aggressively yet?). Friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Good course for walking

Timber Creek is one of the few area courses that’s suitable for walking. Many of the local courses have ping transfers from green to tee box, but Timber Creek is laid out well. Greens are coming in nicely after punching about 6 weeks ago. Only issue is people not fixing their pitch marks. Although this issue is not solely limited to Timber Creek. It’s a problem at all courses. Anyways, good course and it’s in pretty good condition.

Overall in great shape

Good day at Timber Creek. Greens are overall in great shape other than some people not fixing their pitch marks. Only part of one green that was in pretty significantly bad shape, maybe due to a virus or something. But otherwise, it was fun playing there and would go back.

Course is coming back

The greens are coming back, but why can’t the clowns that actually hit the greens fix their ball marks? Maybe they are not used to hitting the greens and don’t know that you fix yours plus one. Come on people, it’s easy.

Course is in great shape

Overall, Timber Creek is in great shape. A couple of greens had spots that looked like they were diseased. But only a couple. The greens are quick and true. Most people playing there, repair their ball marks. If you’re not in the fairway, you are assured to be in grass. Didn’t hit the ball anywhere that wasn’t grass. Except under a couple of oak trees, outside of the rough. Overall, great course, great layout, I played as a single with a threesome and finished in 4 hours. If you’re looking for a course that isn’t difficult with wide open fairways, reasonably priced, with nice greens that run true and don’t bounce all the way to the cup, this is the course to play. Also, brand new practice facilities.
