Rating 73.7

Paradise Valley Golf Course was voted the top course in Solano County and it is considered one of the best values in the North Bay area. Mature oaks line the fairways and meandering creeks wander across the course, coming into play on nine holes. It is a good course for walkers but it is still quite a challenge from the back tees. Club selection and ball placement are equally important. Paradise Valley Golf Course's signature hole is the par-5 10th. It requires a trio of accurate shots beginning with a well placed tee shot just short of the lake that sets you up for the second shot. You will have to make it past a ravine and a massive oak tree in order to make it to the green, which is protected by both sand and grass bunkers.

Fantastic shape for time of year, very fast greens, great bar!

As always the course was in very fine condition. Pace of play was fine too. Carts with picture GPS is a nice benefit too. Bar food & drinks always a good value.

Fairfield's Gem

I have been playing this course for ove 13 years and it continues to evolve.
The course offers challenges to all levels and is kept in beautiful condition. While a sister course to Rancho Solano and share the same ownership and management, the course is quite differnt and most golfers state they prefer Paradise Valley.
The clubhouse offers a great restaurant and bar, one of the finest around.

Course drains great

I seldom rank anything excellent, but given the conditions Paradise Valley answered the bell. It was cart paths only and some areas out of the fairway were under water. The course played well, the staff was supportive despite our slow round and the greens were sturdy despite our recent weather. Paradise Valley played great on December 27!

Perfect Golf Course for Everyone

I'm a semi-retired touring pro and when winter comes I head to Paradise Valley to play. I live in the Santa Rosa area. It is the best course in a 100 mile radius area for dry conditions when the rains come. Not only that, but the course is a great test of golf without seeing the same type of holes, hole after hole. Great design and rewards good play. It is a "Fun" course to play. Tell your friends!!!

Interesting course with a variety of tees to suit different levels.

Course layout is interesting with unusual holes , bunkering , and water hazards. Greens are large and if in fine condition would be even more scary with many undulations . On this day the greens were decent but still showing signs of a recent aeration which kept me from giving them the highest mark. The main problem was pace of play. The round took 5:15 to complete which made the back nine torturous considering the cold front that was moving in. Overall it was enjoyable and I would still recommend it, hopefully on a quicker moving day.

One of the better couse in this area

Marshall was a bit rude, insisted we speed up the play.

We were foresome playing between the twosome in front and twosome behind us.

It was a cart pass only day because of still wet course condition.

We still managed to finish under 5 hours.

Pace of play was very good, didn't feel hurried or crowded

Overall the course was in very good shape, The equipment provided (carts w/ GPS) were neat and clean and comfortable (excellent shape). Course Marshall was visable throughout the round which helped to maintain the pace of play.

Fairfield gem

The course was in great shape and very enjoyable to play. Has a good mixture of distances so you get to hit all the clubs in your bag. The fairways were quite wide so it was easy to keep the ball in play (no lost balls) but the greens had a lot of undulation so I would say that's the course's best defense. Also, it's an easy course to walk. I had not played this course in at least 15 years but I'll be back soon - and I'll get the Killer Dog at the turn!

great walking course

Play this course occasionally when I want to drive an hour. Paradise is usually in very good condition even when it has been raining. Pretty good drainage. We played the blue tees this time. It's a different animal than the white tees.
