Snack bar Restaurant

Going from the front 9 to the back 9, I stopped in to get a quick bite to go, and was told (@ 12:28 pm, mind you), they were out of HOT DOGS .. Really? I asked for any pre-made sandwiches, and was told there wasn't any ... Needless to say, I was disappointed! And hungry .. hmmm

Course designed for a good time.

This course is a lot of fun. I’ve played here a lot and I always enjoy playing here. Not many obstacles to deal like mountainous hills and excessive trees yet still challenging with tricky greens and long par 3s. The lack of obstacles allows me to relax because I’m not worried to much about a horrific lie but the rough affects your shot enough to strive for a fairway. Finally, there is a consistent wind from the sea that will either help or hurt you but this comes from a picturesque location next to the Pacific Ocean and on a clear day, you can get a spectacular view of the San Francisco skyline from a majority of the course. It is a fantastic golf course I highly recommend to everyone. (Side note for local golfers close enough to here, becoming a member at this course comes with nice perks like a free bucket of balls everyday and a free beer for your round before 2pm and it’s very inexpensive to be a club member. I think it’s worth it.)

Golf carts

Between the 11th green & the 12th tee box, the golf carts stopped running .. I was able to get mine running and to continue playing .. This also happened between the 12th green & the 13th tee box .. Other golfers experienced the same issues .. I brought this up to the front desk in the club house ...
