Beautiful Course, Amazing Staff, Pure Bliss!

This course is an absolute gem! The fairways are surrounded with trees, impeccably maintained, and the greens roll true. The layout is challenging but fair, with stunning views that make every hole a pleasure to play. The staff was incredibly friendly,. Can’t wait to come back!

I'll golf here again, but

...I would love to see the greens in better shape. Most were in above average condition, but maybe 5 or 6 were in very "need repair" condition. I remember having to move my ball over in order not put over damaged areas of the green, Overall, a very nice layout with narrow fairways and challenging hazards. It is a public course w/ 7 minutes between T times -- slow play and some waiting at the Tee box is expected -- and at times, there were 3 groups playing on the same hole. Overall -- a B- grade for me.

Sherwood Golf

Great layout!

Pace was slow. It's a public course, and the drawbacks of too many slow golfers was present.

Fairways were acceptable, but greens were mostly in need of repair. Too any greens were simply unputtable.

Love Sherwood, but 😬

Tee boxes and many greens in horrible shape. $50 to walk with several greens that are, frankly, unplayable. Played here a couple of months ago and the course was in great shape. I realize that nature's ebbs and flows effect course conditions, but rates should be adjusted accordingly.

Sherwood Forest golf course

Il love this coarse. There is plenty of shade for the hot days. The running river is beautiful. It’s so peaceful out there. I saw a deer last time I played. The staff has to be the friendliest of all clubhouses in the Central Valley. I love that you are hitting from grass on the range. This is definitely my favorite coarse

Good value

I played Sherwood on a hot Friday afternoon which made for quicker pace of play. The river was flowing and hearing the peaceful sound of the water added to course ambiance. Overall a good day and good value. The only downside is the greens are not in great condition.
