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.

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.

Marshall's have to make judgement on pace of play. It's what most people want and expect.

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.

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.

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.
