Great Day at the course
Very Straight fairways, deer run across your path with no concern. Turkeys visit you on a hole.
Very friendly staff. I like the attitudes and the service.
hidden gem
Great deal for the money! Course very flat so a good walking course. Lots of trees so MUST HIT IT STRAIGHT!! Not crowded, I played 16 holes solo!
Players there had a good sprit, nice folks, laid back.
I shall return!
Beautiful course
Bennett Valley G.C. is an excellent place to play as it has many different challenging holes. The course has a relaxed atmosphere and the staff is courteous and helpful.
Best course conditions around
Great course , and even better course conditions some places charge you an arm and a leg to play, and there course conditions are really bad . Not this place great prices and even better course
Pleasant day
Always a pleasure to play this excellent public course. This course is always well manicured with large greens. It is Rare to find muni courses with such high quality sand traps and Bennett has made the effort to upgrade their traps. Look forward to the next visit to this course.
A Gem
Great value, beautiful surroundings. Lots of tall trees on some narrow fairways to really think about course management. Greens were firm with a lot of variation in levels. Greens were in excellent shape. Pace on a Saturday was very reasonable. I really enjoyed this track and will be back again.
Bennett is BEAUTIFUL
Golf course is always in phenomenal condition for the amount of play that this course receives. Greens are great and roll true. There are some TOUGH pin placements! Pace of play on Sunday afternoon was pretty good (4 1/2 hours). If you have not played here, it is well worth the price of admission.
this course was fun to play
Very nice course very good greens I will play again
Great value and great course condition
The course was in very good condition and greens were challenging. The pace of play was a little slow initially but picked up on the back nine. Our starting time was delayed by about 20 minutes, but all slots were full foursomes. A good course and the value was great.
BV
has to be one of the nicest public courses in sonoma.well maintained, good greens lovely layout
BV Golf
Great course slow play on front nine. Trees need to be trimmed back on some holes (overhanging branches IN the fairway
My experience
We found the gentleman who checked us in to be very rude... based on this I will never play this course again. He had the nerve to get on our case about missing our tee time when in fact we were early... he demanded we call next time.
Nice course
Conditions where great , must hit straight and stay out of tree line. Had a great time for first timers. I'll be back!
Excellent muni course
This is one of the nicest muni courses in the Bay Area. Challenging but not above a typical amateur. I like how the "time per hole” target is posted on the scorecard. If you’re a conscientious player it helps keep you on task. The only negative for the day was a men’s Bennett Valley club member was playing in the group behind us: he called the clubhouse to complain that we were playing too slow. We finished the front nine in 4:09 (ahead of the target). I approached the men’s club member at the turn and told him that we were ahead of schedule. Our group reminded him that he wasn’t at a country club and to remember to HAVE FUN.
Other than that I had a great day.
Best golf deal around; good course conditions
Easy access; friendly staff; course in very good condition; bargain price; beautiful surroundings, with hills, mature trees, wildlife; excellent greens; worth the drive; will play again. Senior golfer 74 yrs old.
nice course
Slow play on Memorial day,,played behind two 5 somes
Great day but one thing
I really like this course. Easy to walk and greens are always in great shape. My one complaint is lack of water to drink on the course. It is warm out and whether walking or riding, would be nice to have some water coolers out there.
Afternoon at BVGC with my Son
My Son and I were paired with a young girl and her brother from Novato. Nice people. We started on time, followed a threesome of hackers and had surprisingly only waited on a few shots. Great day but a little windy.
Good value at Bennett Valley
The course was in very good condition, except some greens that are still recovering from recent aeration. Had an 8AM tee time and played in 4 hours (fastest time ever for me at that course). Very friendly staff and great clubhouse.
