Very nice course

It was ok, Staff is always friendly. We got stuck behind a slow foursome for about 5 holes until we jumped ahead of them, because they were not going to let us play through. But everything else was very nice and it was clear the rest of the way.

Challenging without being hard

Oakmont WEST has a couple pretty difficult holes, several more that require accuracy off the tee with some local knowledge where to put it, and in all honesty, several that are just plain ol nothing special holes.

Most of the Par 5s call for less than Driver off the tee, as they have water hazards crossing the fairway and/or a dogleg. That isn't everyone's cup of tea, but the 2nd shots are demanding.

The greens are no picnic here, you have to stay below the hole. I like the challenge to accuracy off the tee at Oakmont WEST (I stress West because there's an East course that's an executive track I booked accidentally- Golf Now fixed it for me. Thanks Golf Now!)

This course does wind through a neighborhood, so don't expect much in the way of scenery here, although the Mayacamas are just a bit to the east so there's SOMETHING to look at besides people's homes!

Good Value for the money

This was my first time to play the course and had some problems as to where to place the ball in the fairways.. The greens was not so good in condition as the ball dribbled in some of the greens during putting.

Oakmont has seen better days !!!!

I have been playing here for 20 years and it is getting worse and worse each year. I understand it is up for sale !!! The greens are in poor shape considering it is spring time. There are no yardage markers except for some 150 yard pole markers. No distance on the sprinkler heads. Those are long gone. The markers in the middle of the fairways are there but so old that you cannot read them. I only play here because it is a short drive otherwise I would not waste my time.. Pace of play can be very slow but other times you can play 18 in 3 1/2 hours. There are so many other better courses I would leave this one for last !!!

Needs improvement

I usually like playing this course; however, this round was an exception. The fairways and greens are in good condition, but the bunkers and rough were in very poor condition. The sand in the bunkers did not exist. Lots of weeds and very hard pan sand. Couldn't get under the ball. The rough was thicker than usual, probably due to the very wet winter we just got over. I'm hoping the maintenance of the course will improve over the next few weeks and the next time I play here I can post a more favorable review.

Fun track but greens are rough

Really enjoyed the round. Took me about 4 holes to realize the grin outdoors not hold many shots and they are in pretty tough shape. Bouncing instead of rolling putts was the norm. They admit it I still winter conditions and there virtually no sand in the bunkers...mostly weeds. But I didn’t hit into any of them.

still a little wet some more mowing needed

Course fairways are in good shape but the rough still needs mowing in a lot of places. This is because it is still wet in a lot of these areas. Greens are in good shape and fast like normal. Course was cart path only today because there is still some wet area.

January in Nor Cal

Considering it is January, the round was mostly great. Pace of play was somewhat slow, but the weather was fantastic. Wet in some spots, but mostly excellent. Greens were very good. Did not find out the restaurant opened at 11:00 am until we arrived at 10:20 am. Apparently there are winter hours. First time I have heard of this.
