About

Holes 18
Type Municipal
Par 72
Length 6632 yards
Slope 133
Rating 71.8

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.

Always in nice condition

I play this course every year when I visit. I love the layout, the views, and the overall condition of the facility. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Even recently punched and sanded greens rolled true.

Great course

Course is in excellent shape. I wish people would repair their divots though. I can't blame course management for that. I enjoy playing here. A lot.

Great shape right now

Usually this place can get a little rough. People don’t fix pitch marks, the fairways don’t drain well and the tee boxes aren’t playable. But right now things are pretty good. Too bad it’s the end of the season when they got their act together.

Only got 9-holes in. The heat was approaching 100 deg. My wife was with me. I paid for 18-holes and asked for a voucher. Wouldn’t do it. Got a credit for rider for $19 on a $90 green fee. Oh well.
