Lucky day. Called the starter at 11:30 and he said he had an opening for a single at 12:07. Perfect!! Hot tailed to the course and walked right up to the first tee. $52 to walk. POP 4.25hrs. which is great for this place. Finished around sunset and I played 1&2 again in the dark.

Lucky day. Called the starter at 11:30 and he said he had an opening for a single at 12:07. Perfect!! Hot tailed to the course and walked right up to the first tee. $52 to walk. POP 4.25hrs. which is great for this place. Finished around sunset and I played 1&2 again in the dark.

Course is in good to very good condition.

Blue tees were ok. They were level. But had quite a bit of divot damage at the actual markers. Just tee it up about 1-2ft behind the markers and it was all good.

Fairways were absolutely perfect. Definitely the highlight of the course. Good roll, perfect cushion and great coverage. Super stoked to see these fairways like this.

Bunkers were just fine. No complaints.

Rough was juicy in spots, but fairly manageable for the most part. The whole course is looking healthy and lush right now.

Greens obviously held shots after the rains, but they were a little bumpy. But they still had some quickness to them. I bet in a week or two after they can dry out, these greens will be killer.

Service here is always spot on. Easy recommend.

played sat 11/22, 8am shotgun. Happy to be out here again, my favorite public in socal. Course in really good shape considering all of the rain. Cart path only. Course not too soggy. Greens running on the slower side as one would expect, but rolled true. Rain came down for an hour, but sunny the rest of the round. Good day when I can play Aviara.

played fri 11/21 and sun 11/23. friday rained all night and stopped around 9am, teed off at 11. cart path only, course a little soggy. greens slow and bumpy. Went back sunday where it had time to drain. 4 holes cart path only. Bunkers in decent shape. Greens had been mowed and rolled, I think. Still soft, but a bit faster... about a 10.

Went back sunday where it had time to drain. 4 holes cart path only. Bunkers in decent shape. Greens had been mowed and rolled, I think. Still soft, but a bit faster... about a 10. I last played here maybe 20 yrs ago when they first opened, and I don't remember anything from then. Playing this weekend, I found the course to be fun and challenging... A few challenging driving holes, but mostly big landing areas. Greens big and undulating. The last 4 holes are labelled "The Quandary" and it's definitely the most challenging holes on the course, and most interesting as well. Course in decent shape considering all of the rain that's been happening. I could play here everyday... fun course.

This private course is about an hour north of Sacramento. I have played it a handful of times in the last 12 years. Recently twice this year (2025) using the Golf moose voucher.
Since GK and moose are working events in SoCal I asked John to put this course up for review in case a GK'er wants to "Know Before You Go" Here goes. 1:20 tee time

Consistent CC level of course conditions and walk-able. Most recent visit 10/30 was a great weather day and the tee sheet after 11 was filled with Golf moose players using their 10/31 expiring vouchers. That made it for slow play and we skipped the middle three holes on the back 9. To find open spaces coming in 16-18.

Greens had been micro punched but rolled real smooth firm and speedy. Great bunkers with white sand and carpet like fairways and penal thick rough. Mature Oak tree and redwood borders course can be and stretched to 6900 from the tips. All the golf anyone needs.
Warm-up areas (practice green, driving range) close to modest clubhouse. With outside snack shack for beverages. Laid back CC style. More pickups than sedans can seen in the parking lot and blue jeans ok for course attire.

One of the best courses in the area attested by the player I met last Sat. He mentioned the dues at around $400 a month. I think a discount is offered if you live long distance away.
Now you know if you see the golf moose deal again. Buy it and try it. I will make the hour drive with voucher in hand and use it early. Recommend.

Late fall review playing same time different date as last few.
On the predawn Nw drive and the first 4-5 holes the fog factor came into play. Almost burning off completely but then coming in as high clouds 42 degree tee off temp joined by two some from Yuba City to the north. Good company made it a fun round to compare notes and tales.

Late fall review playing same time different date as last few.
On the predawn Nw drive and the first 4-5 holes the fog factor came into play. Almost burning off completely but then coming in as high clouds 42 degree tee off temp joined by two some from Yuba City to the north. Good company made it a fun round to compare notes and tales.
As 1st four-some got around nicely no rush under 4 hour pace 3rd out.
Wet with dew through the green made scoring more difficult. Leave season and rough thick enough to lose a ball or two. Which overall is good because it makes the course more challenging. Greens fresh mowed in good muni shape. Didn't visit any bunkers and with improved scoring (triple/triple) on the front 9 back to back par 5's (4&5) could have made a better than average total on the card.
Still a recommend as a good value and vibe.
