Peacock Gap Golf Club extends along the shores of San Pablo Bay, but it sits inland enough to avoid the fogginess of the coast and enjoy consistently sunny weather throughout the year. The course's layout has undergone many renovations over the years that have brought it to its current playability, including a new drainage system, new tee boxes, a reshaping of five of the greens, and relocation of bunkers. The golf course kept the classic features of its original layout though, such as the inviting fairways that still provide a challenge and the tricky greens that deceptively extend past where the player thinks they end. In addition to the course, Peacock Gap has also improved their practice facilities over the years. There is an all-grass driving range, two large practice greens, and a chipping green.

fun course

At present, the course is very dry so the ball will roll a long way.

Likewise, the greens are firm and fast!

If you can remember this, you will have a good round!

Nice course, scenic surroundings

Greens are in good condition, bunkers are maintained better than most courses and present fair obstacles and challenging to hit from as well. Fairways are pretty dry and could use more watering. Beautiful area and scenery to view as you ride around this course.

Course quality going downhill fast

Greens continue to be among the best in local public courses. The fairways and rough have taken a dive over the last three months - rough hasn't been cut, fairways are in bad shape and there's been a material worsening which is concerning.

Have heard the previous greenskeeper has left, which would make sense. But this is the worst shape the course has been in over the last few years.

Very nice

The course was generally in good shape though some fairways on the back 9 were dry, thin and quite weedy. Some bunkers had a good amount of grass inside and need more maintenance. The practice area has a grass driving range, chipping area, bunker and two greens--excellent! The cafe had good food. Played in about 4 hours on a Friday so very good pace. All in all very nice and I'd play it again.

If you like waiting between shots this course if for you!

The gap between tee times is only 8 minutes which results in 2 (up to 3) groups waiting for the green to clear on par 3.

And complaining to the marshal about the pace of play is useless, as the only response you get is "it's very busy today"...

They do not understand that 8 minutes between tee times is the reason why this course plays so slow..

Was expecting better

For the price it's not up to par (no pun intended). The fairways had many bare spots. The rough was out of control. It felt like the course was not where the money is going, I play at a lot of Bay Area courses and the is by far the bottom of that list.

Fun course, Illogical tee time spacing

I’ll elaborate, but the title says it all. The tee times are spaced out at 8 minutes which is just so stupid. You just wait forever. Literally two minutes would make a huge difference. Don’t have anywhere to be for five+ hours, and you’re good. The course is in good shape. The greens are fast and true without a lot of damage. That alone led me to believe the regulars are fairly respectable. The fairways are fairly uniform as far as grass goes, and the layout is friendly to a wide range of abilities. The practice areas are quite nice. Excellent putting greens at the first hole and down near the range with the lower one being adjacent to a chipping green. The range is grass and quite nice.

Very enjoyable round

Liked the layout . Plenty of bunkers. Relatively flat course but quite a few water hazards. Grass range is nice but not allow to hit drives over 220yds. Post round food and drinks are surprisingly delicious - top notch actually!
