Bennett Valley Golf Course

Well-maintained course. Enjoyed the challenge and the beautiful old trees.

I'd like to give it a 3.5, but I settled on 4 stars. The gentleman in the shop (I wish I could remember his name) was great. I had forgotten my umbrella at home in Oregon and he found one for me to use. The weather was wet, so I was by myself due to low turnout.

The course does not drain well, particularly the back nine, which is flat. I teed off the back first and it was wet in spots. The greens were in good shape however. The back nine is pretty boring. You basically play the same style hole each time - straight and tree lined. Not much variety.

The front nine is pretty good. A LOT more variety and fun to play.

Given the rain overnight I wasn't surprised by the course conditions. It was still playable and I didn't have any plugged lies. The greens were good. I didn't have to fix many ballmarks, which is surprising for a public course. I did notice the bunkers were not raked very often, which you sadly see from lazy golfers.

The value was great. I think I paid $40 for walking 18, renting a rickshaw, and a small bucket of balls.

This course gets a lot of play & for good reason. It has a simple old school design. There are only a few holes that don't lie on flat ground. Basically, everything is right in front of you here. Greens are poa & they are quite tricky. Overall good value golf course. And right now its in great shape.

Work that was done fairways has been a success !!! Conditions were better than ever after rain !!

There was a frost delay the day I played and the staff handled it very well. The pro shot staff was excellent and promptly paired me up with a local twosome. Enjoyed the round very much.

Course was in great shape after the rains. What more can I say? Next time I won't write a review. You should ask for a long drawn out synopsis.

Course was in great condition for how much weather and play it gets. The staff was as nice as could be. Will play this every year when we're in town for the holidays!

Pace of play was fast, teed off at 12:15pm. Course was in very good condition, nice fast greens, nice course to walk. $22 was a great deal.

Bennet valley is a city run course and they do a fantastic job. The staff are friendly and welcoming and the greens and fairways are always well groomed. It like every course is suffering from the drought with some bare patches but overall, with all things considered the team do a great job presenting a nice playable, affordable golf course.

Vary slow play I only play there when I have all day there is know marshells on the course and know one fallows the rulls they all play slow .'!!!!!!

We live the layout of Benett Balley Golf Course. We love Bob and his staff in the pro shop. Rthe food especially the chicken wings in the restaurant. Outstanding!
The course is well kept.
What we don't like is the "pace of Play". Which you can't really blame the course for, not really. However you can get the marshals out there to hustle those that the no they are playing for the PGA tour and a million dollar prize.

Okay looking course. Nice pro shop, nice employees. Low green fees. And ridiculously crowded and slow everyday. I live in town. Have played 6 times, but will Never again. Last round: walked off the course at the 12th hole, 5hours 30 minutes!

Course attracts lots of young hooligans who carry cases of beer and drink it all during game. Lots of bad behavior. You've been warned!

Nice long, straight fairways to get a good long drive. Be sure to stay right on the 1st hole so you can see the green and shoot it over the creek. Lots of chances to par some of the holes.

Two groups on each hole---2 1/2 hours for 9 holes--so slow my clothes went out of style. Players took so long to putt.

Missed our tee time because of holiday traffic . Pro shop understood and fit us in within a half hour. Great and friendly stalf. Course in very good shape , considering drought , greens in great shape.
