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.

Best
This is one of the best value courses in the Bay Area.
Recently golfed here with beginners and the marshal harassed us about rate of play. There were only 2 occasions when the group behind us was waiting but that was because they were much better players than us. Once they were passed us and no one else was directly behind us the marshal still followed right behind us after every shot we took. He even threatened to kick us off the course if we didn't speed up even though the next group was 2 holes behind us and never caught up to us. The course is great and well kept. Other than the harassment it was a great experience.
Putter's playground
Expect large greens in excellent condition. Keep your approach shots below the cup and you'll have a good chance.
Must Play Public Course
This course is a great course to play. The staff is friendly, the greens are large but roll great. The normal daily fees are high, but Golfnow prices are a must. The food is great too.
Amazing Round - Great Condition
Rancho Solano is a staple in my annual golf calendar. I have never seen the course in better condition. From the tee boxes to the greens, the course Management is on point. The Marshall was visible throughout the round and this helped to keep the pace perfectly.
Looking forward to my next round at RSGC.
Solano County Golf
For a public course, Rancho is in great shape. We were a twosome, and some of the fours were kind enough to allow us to play through. We were able to finish our round of 18 in less than four hours. Wow!
nice course
Overall good experience in terms of the course conditions & pace & staff. The only thing not so good is the golf carts as they looks old & brakes not working well. Sometimes it's not safe driving on slopes. Still, will recommend this course.
Rancho Solano Golf Course
It is an excellent golf course and very well kept up. I would recommend it for everyone
Not perfect but very good
Rancho was as beautiful as usual. The only thing I would complain about this time is the course was really over watered. Greens were really tough also because they were soooooo fast. Other than that it was a very fun day on the best course in Fairfield.
I'll be back
I had not played here for 20+ years because there are a lot of courses closer to home. I forgot what a nice course this is. Conditions were excellent. Great sand in bunkers.
I look forward to playing here again.
too slow
foursome in front of us very slow - and so hot we finally bailed at 16th - never saw a marshall all day
Perfect
Rancho Solano golf course is a great place to play. The course is in pristine condition. Go play.
Horrible pace of play
I had a 2 o'clock tea time through GolfNow and anticipated slow play as it was Sunday afternoon, however this was much worse than I anticipated. We finished 9 holes in 3 hrs and 20 minutes, but saw that the group in front of us that stopped after 9 holes, so felt that things would pick up. However, after we finished hole 10 which is a par 5 dog leg left so we did not see what things were like ahead of us, there was a group standing on 11 and another group searching for balls in the water in the middle of the fairway. I then left as I didn't want to play a 6/1/2 or 7 hr round! Course was in good shape and I would have liked to see the last 8 holes.
Marshall's have to make judgement on pace of play. It's what most people want and expect.
