Played oside muni on saturday at 2:50pm, $45 to walk. POP no issues whatsoever, a little waiting once in a while, but finished in 4.25hrs no problems.

Blue tees in pretty good shape, fairly level and good coverage. They weren't perfect, but no complaints.

Fairways kind of a mixed bag. Mostly in good to great shape, but there's a few bare patches here and there. Good cushion and rollout.

Rough is pretty much non existent, off the fairway there is some scattered rough, but if you miss the fairway, you'll probably be in dirt. Not a big deal, that was all part of the major work they did a few years ago for turf reduction.

Sand traps around the greens were very nice. Newish white sand with nice amount of fluffy. No complaints whatsoever.

Greens were still healing from aeration a couple weeks ago. Very bumpy. Not much sand remains and they held shots well, but they need a few more weeks to get healed. There is also some areas of newish sod it looks like that were probably formed during the curtain/surrounding area remodel that still need some help.

Customer service just fine, but they close the bar/snack bar at 5pm so they were already closed when we made the turn, kind of a bummer!!! beware and stock up before you tee off if you're playing twilight.

Always recommend this fun layout. Easy to walk except for hole 12. Very challenging wind from the ocean is usually the case.

Played this morning. 1st off and POP was no issue. Beautiful golf morning.

The course at the moment is in fantastic shape. Mowers out early and had the place nice and clean.

Tee boxes all playable. Fairways are lush and had great roll out and lies all round.

Played this morning. 1st off and POP was no issue. Beautiful golf morning.

The course at the moment is in fantastic shape. Mowers out early and had the place nice and clean.

Tee boxes all playable. Fairways are lush and had great roll out and lies all round.

Rough was damp and not too friendly early AM.

Traps had been cleaned and were in perfect playing condition after the weekend.

Greens were in top shape. Add in the size of them, combine that with being mowed, the speed they were at (at least 10 or higher) and you have a challenging putting round of golf. These greens will either make you a better putter or display all your faults with the putter.

Customer service from all employees great.

Had a coffee and breakfast burrito after the round and both hit the spot. Bella Vista Bistro is a top notch little place and the happy hour is fantastic.

Golf in N CA is really really great.

Hit up The Ike for a solo round this past week as I had some work in the area and decided to stop over for an afternoon tee time, joined by two other singles. Just an FYI - driving range balls are CASH ONLY, but kudos to the attendant who called the starter's office and added my range balls to my regular greens fees and just got me a bucket out of the machine.

Hit up The Ike for a solo round this past week as I had some work in the area and decided to stop over for an afternoon tee time, joined by two other singles. Just an FYI - driving range balls are CASH ONLY, but kudos to the attendant who called the starter's office and added my range balls to my regular greens fees and just got me a bucket out of the machine.

Check-in was smooth and I am pretty sure that this course is carts only due to the very large (and uphill) distance between the nines. I don't recall seeing any walkers so I'm almost 100% sure of this, but I wouldn't go to court and swear on it. Fortunately said carts are in nice shape and have a good GPS system, although my battery was near dead by the 8th green and someone showed up to replace it without me even calling it in - top marks!

The Ike is such a fun and engaging layout - it's really got it all. Elevations, doglegs, tricky greens, strategic bunkers and length depending on the tee box you're choosing (I played from the whites on this day). It's definitely one of those 'use every club in your bag' type of courses, and it's a ton of amusement. You can't go wrong if the conditions are good.

Speaking of conditions, really great greens that are some of the more challenging you'll find in SoCal. So many tiers, tough reads and consistently fast speeds that I had more three-putts on the day than is normal for me. There are absolutely no gimmees on these greens, but they're really fun to navigate. Fairways could definitely be more lush - they have good coverage, but a lot of even prime spots feel thin. Rough is in good shape and playable, while the fairways bunkers were pretty rock hard but the greenside ones played okay - could use another layer or two of sand, but manageable. Tee boxes were fine.

POP was a bit on the slow side because the group in front of us was not exactly tearing it up in terms of pace, but they didn't have gaps in front of them either. The group behind us must have been absolutely pissing off the groups behind them because we rarely ever saw them behind us until most holes were done. Cart service came around 2-3x which is all you could want from a hospitality and service perspective.

All in all it was another great outing at Industry Hills and I look forward to getting back out there once again, only this time with some good friends to share in the experience.

Played 5-2-26 in the morning walking with a riding threesome and finishing in about2 4 hours and 45 minutes with very little waiting and nobody pushing us. Tee boxes had good coverage on most holes with a few thin spots on a couple and a few needing a little leveling. Fairways were green and lush with a few minor yellow spots on some with great lies and good padding. Rough along fairways and around greens is very lush and green about2 2 inches and thick, outside the primary rough is mostly unkept with hard pan under the trees and varying lengths of grass and weed. Was in two greenside bunkers that were very nicely groomed with a good thick layer of heavy white sand. Greens were in great shape, always the highlight of the course rolling medium/fast and smooth, and playing semi-soft. Overall really good conditions. Highly recommend.

Played here today. Got in touch with a former colleague after I moved up here who lives in Elk Grove. Turns out he works at the course. Invite accepted.

It is a really nice public course. Very busy. But players and marshals keep things moving and POP was right on 4 hours.

Played here today. Got in touch with a former colleague after I moved up here who lives in Elk Grove. Turns out he works at the course. Invite accepted.

It is a really nice public course. Very busy. But players and marshals keep things moving and POP was right on 4 hours.

I found the course to be in nice shape at this time of the year and totally enjoyed the course and company.

No issues with any tee boxes. Fairways had good coverage and decent roll out.

Rough was not overly penalizing and the traps were all playable and heard no complaints.

Greens are in good shape and chipped/putted very well the entire round. And found that people do fix divots.

For a public course that gets a lot of play the management keeps this place in nice shape. Very enjoyable course and easy to walk from what I saw of the many players doing so. Its run by Southgate Rec/Park and not Troon, American Golf, etc. So that may be the reason.

Had lunch in the Wildhawk Grill and it was excellent. In service, quality of food and prices.

Recommended if you are in the area.
