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.

Beat Shape I Have Ever Seen It

Rancho Solano is playing amazingly. The fairways, rough, sand traps, tee boxes, and greens are all on top notch condition. Stay in the fairway or pay. Pace your putts or else.

Go play it today. You will not be disappointed.

Happily surprised!

I have played this course many times in the past and have been unimpressed with the conditions, pace of play and price.

Today’s round was all around great(minus my play :-))

The course was in great condition from the tee boxes to the greens. I was very impressed and I will be back very soon.

Good but windy on the course

Even though it was extremely windy, I had a great time playing the course again. As always the course was in great shape and we were able to finish in 4 hours. I liked the fact that the course posts a pace of play sign when you sign in and that the marshals are checking on the groups, something very few courses I play do.

Really Nice Course

This is a well kept and beautiful course. Played from the blue tees and found it challenging. Real mix of elevation changes. Stay below the hole when putting! Pro shop staff and cart girl were fantastic. Would definitely return here.

A Great Day of Golf

The course was in excellent condition; pin placements varied throughout the course; pace of play was a bit slow (4 hrs 50 min) and waited at all the par 3s, but it didn't feel that bad.

Greens were in excellent condition, running true, fast, and undulating as usual!

Overall a great golf day!
