Lincoln Park Golf Course

We had high hopes for Lincoln Park based on the location and steep price. When my foursome checked in during the late morning, they had no more carts available! What kind of golf course runs out of carts before 11:00 AM?! The greens were recently punched, so they were very bumpy and sandy. The fairways were in poor shape and hard to differentiate from the rough. This course has so much potential because of the location and views. It was quite disappointing.

This is a very old muni course and it looks its age. Buildings all original. Amenities limited to indoor electronic simulator range, which was closed when I arrived at 12:30 pm and a putting green consisting of a putting surface, but no holes.

The greens on the course are full of unrepaired ball marks.

Nonetheless, I recommend the course because it's an interesting, albeit short layout in a beautiful area.

On the day I played, the temperature at the course was in the low 60's, and foggy, while the temperature at my home, some 20 miles away, was in the mid 90's, making this a great place to beat the heat and play some golf.

From the friendly staff to the easiness getting on to play and the challenging but fun course, everyone should play here!

The staff is super rude, always suggests walking instead of riding if you look under 35. They have limited carts. There are flowers growing on the greens. Each putting green makes you feel like your putting on top of a globe. Holes are super close / on top of eachother. Theres 3 holes with great views but thats about it. The public will walk on the cart paths up and down holes.

Course is overpriced and in TERRIBLE condition, oh and they just raised the price :( Don't walk here you'll want to quit after 6.

Electric Golf Cart was not available for our 12:40pm reservation . Requesting refund.

I am requesting a refund based on fact that electric golf carts were not available.

Had to wait on every shot due to local single who would not follow golf etiquette. Played multiple balls on every hole and shagged balls in the rough while holding up everyone behind her. Would not willingly join twosome ahead of her. They left-would not catch up to next group ahead of her. Mentioned her behavior to staff-I don’t think I was the first person to complain.

Marshall stole our cart key, ran away and hid. While we were calling the shop he shows up and drives our cart away with the clubs saying “I’m gonna throw your clubs in the parking lot”. It was Cart path only. We drove on the fairway to pick up a ball and immediately went back on cart path. Childish behavior from the Marshall. No warning. And to steal the cart key while we are teeing off? Really?

I have play at Lincoln Park Golf Course for the past few years and the course condition today (4/13/23) was in great shape (fairways are cut, greens are firm not wet and patchy), even after the rain storm we had recently in the bay area. I have played at three other golf courses recently (Poplar, Monarch, Franklin) around the bay area and they are not as good of a condition as the Lincoln Park Golf course. If you are young like me (60 years old) carry my own golf bag and walked the entire hilly golf course and got great workout. I was playing with another single golfer who was 69 years old (Mike, CEO) and he too carry his own golf bag and walked the entire time and he was there to witness I made an eagle on the 2nd hole par 4, 245 yards playing from the white tee box.

Thank you to the ground crew at Lincoln Park Golf course for keeping the course in great shape!
