Rancho Solano Golf Course sits midway between San Francisco and Sacramento, a location that makes it easily accessible from all the cities in the Bay Area. The course sprawls across hilly terrain, providing the layout with elevated tees and dramatically undulating greens. It is a tough course to walk but it's possible. Sparkling lakes dot the hills, coming into play on a few holes. There are also numerous strategically placed bunkers to contend with. The expansive greens offer some room for error but pin placement is still important. The first three holes on the back nine are some of Rancho Solano Golf Course's most challenging, especially the par-4 11th hole. Club selection is the key to this hole or you might lose your ball to the lake and even once you do seemingly reach safety, there are still bunkers backing the large green.

A wonderful lovely course

The course is not only in good shape but the staff is great. The iced cold towel and water provided by the staff (going around the holes) at the course made our game more enjoyable under the sunny sky! Thanks for the very special treatment! Rancho Solano is definitely a wonderful lovely course.

Great course, tracherous greens

This is a great golf course and in great condition in August 2025. The fairways are wide and forgiving, bordered by beautiful trees that can interfere with wayward shots.

The greens are large and receptive. Do your best to stay below the hole. The greens are heavily sloped and downhill putts can run well past the pin and off the green in some cases.

Slow pace. Always backed up

The course is nice, better conditions than others around the area. But pace is always slow! Today, a Marshall came up to us, thinking we were the one holding everyone up, when it was the foursome ahead of us that’s taking their sweet time hitting multiple shots. I told the Marshall that the people ahead of us is slow, and instead of addressing this, which was one of the Marshall’s responsibility, he said to me “ WELL THERE IS NOTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THAT, THEYRE PLAYING THEIR GAME” I have been to so much courses, I just don’t use GolfNow all the time, and this was the worse experience from a Marshall.

Take it or leave it.

Rancho is a wonderful course no question about it. I say that with guarded pause. The staff I encountered were professional and I have nothing but praise for them. However the other golfers were straight up unprofessional. They were younger players whose self entitlement has turned this place into a battle of wills. I was hit into intentionally about 5 times. I was not out of position nor did they yell fore. I addressed it with them but they didn’t care. In my opinion they believe that this is their own private club and that outsiders are going to be treated accordingly so that they can deter them from returning. If this culture is condoned by the club then there’s a problem. This is a public course that relies on outside revenue to maintain the course at the high standards set. I have played golf for over 40 years and have seen changes but the lack of respect has leeched into the game. So as much as I love this course….. I’m going to keep playing it cuz nobody will ever intimidate me on or off the course.

Great value and moderate pace of play

Some fairways have spotty brown hard, dry grounds so the irons would not go under the ball. Some iron shots bounced off the ground and bladed my approach shot as a result
