The River
Love this course/food & drinks are excellent. Staff exceptional.
Great Day for Golf
We had a great time at this course. Staff were helpful and friendly. Pace of play was perfect, we waited on tee box only a couple times for just a couple minutes. Fairways were a little hairy, but clean. Greens similarly slow, but in good shape. Thanks, will come play again!
Fair course
Great course to do a round. All holes are fair but on the less challenging side. 3 beautiful landscapes with a lake.
Beautiful Course
Slightly rainy day, no one on the course, not sloppy or muddy, very well maintained. Staff was friendly, a great experience. Thank you!
We will play again...
Great Pro shop staff
Colin in the clubhouse is a real pro. Very positive person and always very welcoming
Good over all but
The course itself was great and the weather was superb. The only thing I could say Is that. I wish the fact that greens were punched to aerate. I would have probably look for other course in the area with similar price range.
The River
Excellent layout-very fun to play. Highly recommended. The Grill is great also🏌️
Excellent setting!
The green were punched, and were decent, look forward in playing there again !
Greens unplayable
This is one of the best courses in the Central Coast and the only reason for the downgrade is because of the periodic green aeration. They did a thorough job of punching the large holes and adding sand over the entire greens. At the present time, I view them as unplayable, but in about six weeks they should be back to their usual condition which is excellent. The working staff at this course is perhaps the best and friendliest in the entire Central Coast. Very nice course (generally).
Very enjoyable course
Terrific employees, scenic location and course is in nice shape. Peacefully challenging is my best way to describe a full 18.
Great for the $$$
Nice course, some damage from recent floods, but course is under repair in those areas, friendly staff
