Great Views and a Challenging Layout.

The Blue Rock East Course is one of NorCal's exceptional courses with a lot of elevation changes and a frequent brisk wind to add to the challenge, I highly recommend it.

Tried &True

I have played FCGC 34 Years it is out in rolling hills no houses and an abundance of Wildlife. Golf Courses in NorCal are disappearing that have these attributes. The course conditions are good they have a Marshal driving around in a Golf cart another rarity this day and age. I highly recommend it.

The Best Greens in NorCal

The course is in really good shape, the staff is friendly, great driving range and putting green to warm up on prior to your round. The course is fun to play and has tremendous views. There are multiple tees to accommodate any skill level. I like this course and highly recommend it

Actively Punching and sanding the Greens

The reservation did not disclose punching and sanding of the greens the maintenance was being done while played.No scorecard on the cart and it ran out of juice on Hole 9. An immature rude loud mouth on the staff screamed at me that I should have called them instead of walking to the Clubhouse. This was unacceptable I will be writing Course Co and GOLFNOW.

A Very Special NorCal Golf Course

The course has beautiful views and some of the nicest greens in Northern California. There is enough elevation changes and occasional winds that add an element of challenge. There is more to the course than meets the eye. The Restaurant is excellent, the practice facility is nice, and the staff is friendly. It is a great place to play I highly recommend it.

NorCal Gem with Excellent Greens

A good walk enjoyed this course offers spectacular views and multiple tee options to accommodate all skill levels of Golfers. The greens are some of the best for a public Golf Course. It is one of my favorite places to play Golf.

A Nice Walk in a Beautiful Setting

I think the Staff is Friendly and very Professional. The Safety protocols are excellent the Restaurant and Bar are world class. The Greens are excellent the course needs some water or I would have rated it 5 Stars! I always enjoy playing it and it’s a nice walk.

Bay Area Gem

Very Good Greens for a public Course the Oakland Hills offer tremendous views. The elevation of the holes is severe if you’re short you’re ball can roll back 100 yards. A truly unique layout I would give it a must play recommendation.

An SF Bay Area Must Play

The Elements dictate the difficulty level on any given day at Monarch Bay. There is an abundance of Wildlife and some stunning views weather permitting. Accuracy of the tee is rewarded and the greens are protected well by bunkers. I always enjoy playing the course when I can find an affordable Tee Time.

Nice Greens and Great Walk!

This is one the last 9 hole layouts that you can walk and enjoy Old School Golf in a beautiful setting surrounded by vineyards and Mountains. The restaurant looks good but has been closed for private events the last 3 times I have played the course. I have driven 50 Miles to it 3 times in the last couple of months. The Greens are spectacular and this is one the best Golf values in Northern CA.

Great Time of Year Big Demand for Play

We were a foursome that tee'd off at 3:04PM it had a good pace of play the $30.00 price tag for this late time discouraged many players. The Greens were good there are still some soft spots in the fairways it was a 90 Degrees but should have been cart paths only. On the back nine we started to see players going around jumping holes, playing music loud, and then we had a 5 some show up in front us on 14 and it killed the pace a Marshall showed up and told us there was 32 minutes left to play we directed him to the group in front of us. They over book this place and have poor management they make excuses and have dead carts all over the course very unorganized mediocre at best.

Old School Course with no Houses!

The greens are in good shape all the rain has made conditions soft cart paths only (it is way to soft to drive on) . The spring at Franklin Canyon is spectacular very Green! The players that play bomb and gouge are going to loose a lot of balls if you play that way bring plenty of Ammo!

The course has some challenging holes the wind and uphill nature of some the approach shots adds some difficulty.

The Greens are in good shape and so are most of the Fairways. The Bunkers are firm with old sand/dirt that should be replaced (that would be the biggest negative that I noticed). Our foursome enjoyed the course and for the price everybody thought it was a good value. Your not going get Augusta National for $40.00!

A Good Course for all skill levels.

If you have some high handicappers in the foursome this is an expecially good course, you can move them up to the white tee's and everybody will have a good time.
