Golf Course Reviews
Golf Course Reviews: California, Arizona, Nevada, Texas, Oregon, Washington, Colorado, Utah, Florida, Hawaii!I finished my marathon of golf in July with a course that is in my top 5 out of the 512 courses I have played in my 43 years of "looking for my ball", Rams Hill. The only 9 is the fairways. 10's all around. Regarding fairways, I admit I am spoiled. The best fairways are in Japan where the 4 seater carts never go in the fairways. But given the fact that carts ride in the fairways at Rams Hill the fairways are in wonderful shape. It is like playing on carpet. I felt bad for taking a divot and running out of sand fill. The greens are slow this time of year. They run at a 9 on the stimp meter. The ball rolled so true. You just have to give it a little extra. The staff is friendly. I received electro-lite powder, shaved ice, and frozen grapes while playing. Perfect in the 110 degree heat. The game is definitely easier when conditions are this nice.
We played here July 23 and the course was in fantastic condition. It's got some of the best greens in the area, both receptive and smooth. Outstanding practice areas, I always appreciate a good short game area like it has.
The course is fantastic as it always was, of course we'd all love to have all 18 holes back but that's not going to happen, so let's not lose this beautiful 9 holer. We're very lucky to have it back in play.
We played 9 twice to make an 18 hole round, and everyone found it interesting to compare how we played the holes each time. You don't get to do this much, it was quite informative. I'd strongly encourage everyone to support this beautiful unique place, come out and play!

Played yesterday. Finally got a decent cool day and no wind. Playing here in the wind is very difficult given the location of the course being in the flat farmland of Solano County.
Tee boxes all playable.
Fairways still have good coverage lies and decent rollout.
Rough is dry and playable.
Traps are in playable condition.
Greens are all in good shape and chip/putt just fine and hold and release shots as well. Almost all of them are elevated from the fairway and bunker guarded. A good iron game is necessary here as well as good wedge play.
Good customer service in the shop.
Course has a good driving range putting green and practice area as well.
Good food and great prices in the little grill on site.
Still reasonably priced for civilians veterans retired military compared to other courses in the area. Also it is not on the base so easy access.
Recommended.

7/21/26 10:27 Tee time. Arrived early enough to hit the new practice range. Never practiced on these soft matts w/unique recessed tee holder. Feels much more like actually stricking thru ball into "grass". Putting green (small) is very near first Tee, and in good order. Some tee boxes ( we play mens) are showing wear stress but level. Fairways are wonderful, lush at times soft. Well marked ground under repair areas. Rough 2-4 ", playable. Wide fairways not much tree trouble at all here. Greens soft, rolling just right and healthy! Thankyou Greens keeper! Sand is very playable, with many to avoid. Carts newer w/ice bucket mounted and full. Must be a couple miles of concrete paths here. Marshall and beverge service always near, restrooms avaliable thru the track. One hole did bother me. #16 I believe at par 4 280 yds. Blind tee ball will end up in a linear pile of rocks (probably to prevent ball rolling 20-40 yards down slop) or slope will bounce U down sideways into a narly scrub bush, unlikly to find ball! Stratagey is long iron to center fairway stake from now on. Can't wait to come back now that I understand some of the design features. This place is top shelf golf without the country club costs, very comfortable bar w/outdoor patio. Nice pro shop, Thanx Tony and Shaun for taking some time to chat, appreciate that kind of attention. Best golf I've had in many months! Highly recommend Eagle Glen, don't overlook this beautiful setting.
Played Tuesday, July 21, tee off at 2:50pm. My buddy is a member and arranged an afternoon time just after the AJGA finished their first day of their three day tournament. Can't believe the kids have to walk this course, it's a pretty brutal walk, especially from the blue tees!
Course conditions are good to great all around. Tees were all very level with excellent coverage. No problems at all finding a nice spot to place it.
Fairways were very nice. Excellent coverage. Some darker brown spots here and there, but overall beautiful and had excellent cushion with perfect amount of roll out.
Traps needed a little bit of help, especially around the edges where the sand was rock hard and very firm. The flat/bottom parts of the traps were fine, however, and that's where the ball should end up most of the time.
Rough isn't too penal and there's not a lot of it. Once you get off the fairway, you're going to be in riparian areas under heavy trees. It's a great course with tons of trouble off the fairways, so stay on the fairways
Greens were good and on the verge of great. They held shots very well and putted relatively smoothly. Quite a few ball marks and they were medium to fast speed. No complaints.
Guest fees run around $125 and this is well worth it. POP is not going to be a problem, we finished in just under 4hrs as a foursome.
Customer service was excellent. We had a drink in the clubhouse just prior to the round. It was already closed when we finished.
Great course and highly recommend if you get an opportunity to play. It's very tight with lots of doglegs. Very comfortable carts have good GPS that is critical to use.

Played GCC Fallbrook early on 7/21. Out at 6:00am, had to race around before an 8:30 shotgun started. Surprised they wouldn't warn you of that when you booked. But I made it around and done before 8:00, so all good.
This was my first time back here in a few years, and first time since JC Golf took over. They have done some turf reductions, so staying on the short grass is more important now.
Conditions are very good right now. I got ahead of the maintenance crew, so the greens were a bit shaggy, but still rolled well. Fairways in good shape. Tees mostly good, although several had been overrun by weeds. Playable, but I suspect a full redo is needed on those boxes.
Sand traps were very nice. Rough - a lot of it is now harpan due to the turn reduction. Balls can run away for days on that, so stay away.
Still a great track. Looks like they are offering a players card (comparable to the Palm Card at Arrowood) that gives a nice weekday rate. Might have to keep that in mind.

North Course just reopened after having closed for a week to aerate the greens. I was most impressed how well they have recovered in less than one weeks' time. A little bumpy, and obviously much slower than normal, they were still very puttable. The rest of the course remains in overall excellent condition. The modest renovation of the 17th hole is a real positive and makes that hole so much more enjoyable to play.
Rode the player/medal tees today 7/20/26 joined by Johnny, Matt and Andrew great gents to play with. Weather was around 95 degrees and the ball was flying. We had no wind on the front and a welcoming 10mph breeze on the back nine . Pop was around 5 hrs 20 minutes. Very friendly staff assisting players. Grill was open and they have a nice putting and chipping green along with a downhill big driving range with ample room for many players.
I have played a handful of rounds here and the conditions have always been nice here.
They have the fairways very lush and you can tell they are putting lots of water on them for the upcoming hotter months. Great lies in the fairways. I hit every fairway on the front and was rewarded with great lies. Rated 8.5/10
The rough was fairly lush and grabby around the green complexes and just off the fairways. Our group also thought the rough was in good to great shape. Rated 8/10.
Most tee boxes were lush with some being unlevel. Rated 6.5/10
Greens were very healthy and holding shots very softly and nicely. They were rolling maybe a 10 on the stimp. Many greens here are large in size and have some undulations to them. They were a pleasure to putt on. Rated 8/10
Was not in any bunkers today. They looked to have thick sand and are very strategically placed in the fairways and around the greens.
Layout contains some birdie opportunities and some blind shots on a couple of holes. To me only #14 is a bit quirky but still playable...otherwise I enjoy the layout. It's in good shape right now and our group had a great time today.

Another RPGC event this weekend out at Simi Hills and my group had an 11:40am tee time playing from the gold tees, so we were smack dab in the middle of the hottest part of the day and the score reflected it!
Fortunately there was cart service on both nines, so that helped, and the POP was moving pretty well all day. The carts are nice but do not have GPS so make sure to keep that in mind if you're not familiar with the layout and all of your obstacles/layups.
The Simi Valley heat seems to be getting the better of Simi Hills of late as there are a lot of dry areas currently and they're not just in the less-played areas like before. Look, it's understandable out there but we have to keep reviews honest. Right now you're going to find a good amount of hot spots in and around the fairways, but you'll also get good lies that are plenty playable. The rough is just fine. Bunkers were really thin and not much fun to play out of based on that fact.
The greens are still running nicely and have solid coverage and color. A few more pitch marks than last outing though, so that was disappointing. But overall, the greens are the best part of the course conditions right now, rolling true, medium-fast and holding lines nicely with good reads. You can also get your chips nice and close, but the chipping areas around the greens are quite thin so you're going to need to be at your best.
I always enjoy playing this course and this outing was no different, but I believe it's currently a step below its usual very good standards. I have no doubt it will be back to its best when the current heat wave fizzles out.

Played this morning early to be back in time for the Open ending. And quite an ending it was.
Course is in very nice condition currently but very wet from overnight water. The warm temps that were expected did not materialize and someone forgot to tell the maintenance crew to change the watering times.
Tee boxes level and clean.
Fairways lush good lies but very little if any rollout early in the AM due to being very wet. Decided to move up a tee box after first two holes. Made a big difference.
Rough is not high but due to being wet it did play tough the few times I had to play from it.
Traps were all playable and I heard no complaints.
Greens were also damp and really did not dry out too much as it was cool and overcast the whole round. But they putted much easier as one could be a little aggressive and it paid off.
Great public golf course that prides itself in appearance customer service and value.

Played last Sunday, getting out as a single in mid-morning, walking from the blues with a fun riding threesome. The course was hosting the City Championship finals earlier in the morning so the pace of play was not great, around 4:45. The blue tees were generally on the monuments making the course play longer than usual. They had championship markers set up farther back for the more adventurous.
Twenty years ago, when I played this course several times a month, it irritated me that American Golf would get the course in primo shape for the Long Beach Golf Festival but the conditions would be inconsistent the rest of the year. This round, the course was in very nice shape although I have seen it better. The greens were exceptional, running fast and true. The rough was mainly cut down to manageable levels and fairways were good although the heat has obviously affected them. The only off notes were the slanted tee on #9 (tucked on the left side of the box) and the lack of sand in the sand trap on the right of #1 green. Otherwise, no complaints from a very enjoyable round.

snuck out today, Friday, put my name on the list around 1:45 and got out at 2:15. Shawn the starter was awesome. Very nice guy and worked me onto the course as efficiently as possible. The starters here are truly amazing.
$63 to walk, I guess Friday is now considered a "weekend" day. oh well. On the verge of being worth it. Although conditions are overall good to great. It used to be a good value, now just an average value.
Blue Tees were nice for the most part. No complaints.
Fairways were excellent. Excellent coverage and carpet like.
Rough, not much of a problem.
Sand traps were just fine, no issues.
Greens were a little above average. Good condition overall. held shots very well and weren't too bumpy. Medium fast with little ball marks damage. No issues here but weren't perfect.
Service is so awesome from the starters. They always do a great job. Beverage cart was out there a couple times. Marshall was present. POP was 4.5hrs, fully acceptable for this place. We waited on most shots, but moved along at a decent pace. always recommend if you can get out there.
