Rancho Solano Golf Course
About
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.

10th tee Photo submitted by rsluther on 02/18/2013
Airrated greens the day I went
The greens were aerated the day I went but everything else was fairly nice. I would recommend to a friend to play there but in the future when the greens are back to normal!
Great Day
What a day to play golf. Teed off @ 8:00am and finished around 12:15. It was a beautiful day, the course is in great shape. The greens are massive and of course my approaches left me miles away from the pin. For the 1st time playing I have to say I love the course and will be back. Wish the courses in Alameda County were like this course.
Had not played here for a while and forgot how great it is, staff are super friendly and make you feel appreciated
Course in Excellent Condition
Everything was perfect except for the pace of play. We payed a very good deal of less than $20 when the standard rate is about $60.
Fairways and green were in top shape.
Aside from the slow pace of play, our other complaint was the cart we used was defective and kept stalling in our last 6 holes...
From Tee to green excellent course
My first time playing the course. I know that this course can be really busy so I chose a rainy day when only the die-hard golfers would consider playing. The course was wide-open. I had a 1:20pm tee time and it was great. From tee to green the course is the best I’ve seen for winter conditions. The fairway are nice and green. The greens are perfect and roll nicely. The tee boxes are level and plush and well maintained. When I approached the 16th hole that’s when it began to rain. I finished in just over 3 hours. I didn’t play the 18th whole due to pouring rain, but I will be back.
Always in good condition
Big, undulating, quick greens present a challenge. This courses is always in very nice shape. One of my favorites
