DarkHorse Golf Club

DarkHorse is an extremely fun course to play, with a variety of straightforward and very demanding holes. My favorite public facility near Sacramento.

This course is by far the tops in the area for the price. the only negative about our round was we had to play the back nine twice because of fertilizing the front nine. we were not made aware of this when I signed up on golf now, nor we,re we made aware of it prior to the start of our round. only when making the turn to the front nine, were we told it was still closed. this also caused the second nine to play very slow.

The course didn’t have range balls available. There wasn’t a marshall present to deal with incredibly slow players. I left after nine holes. The sand traps had plants growing in them and looked like they had not been touched in weeks. One of the worst golf experiences I have ever had.

Great golf course. Haven’t been in years. Course was in great shape. No clubhouse, no bar, Hot dog stand at the turn helped.

Hidden gem.
Great condition
Not easy but very enjoyable!
Greens are best in Sacto area nice job!
Starter was a true gentleman got us some ice and it was much appreciated!
Have a great Fall.
Hope to out there again soon!👍🥂⛳️

I drive from Roseville to Darkhorse to play this amazing course. The staff are very friendly and the course layout in the Sierra foothills is breathtaking. The course conditions are generally pretty good and in particular the greens are amazing and challenging. I try to make it out once per month but if I lived closer this would certainly be an ideal home course for me.

I have played this course many times. This is the first time I was disappointed in the condition of the Tee Boxes, Fairways and Greens.
The course was loaded with overgrown weeds. The T-boxes were shoddy and had big dips. The fairways were littered with divots and no one was fixing the divots nor adding the seed mixture. The greens were not in good shape due to all of the ball marks. All golfers need to reminded at check in to fix their divots on the fairways and ball marks on the greens. This will only work if the course is cleaned up by the landscape team and the golfers help out as well.

I love Darkhorse. It's challenging, beautiful and well maintained. I love seeing all the work being done and watching the transformation!

Nice course in great condition. Play got a little slow towards the end as the group in front of us seemed to been playing a scramble and took several minutes between putts . Complimentary bottles of water at several locations on the course. Bring food as the beverage cart never had hot dogs when we saw her. Good course at a good value. Every hole was different and I used each club in my bag at least once.

I love this course but wish for $80/round they could afford to rake the sand traps prior to weekend play—than maybe people would care enough to rake them after they play—not enough rakes around traps and can anything be done about the idiots that don’t care enough about the game to fix ball marks on the greens?

Difficulty level for a 13.5 handicap is a good test.
There are some excellent holes. Some holes are more forgiving than others. I throughly enjoyed the course. Playing with my brother-in-law who is a 2+ shot 75. It was great to see his game at Darkhorse.

This course is worth the drive. Challenging but fair. Greens always in great shape. Great value and fun course.

Will come back to play more! It was nice and relaxing round of golf.
