This is a great course.
A friend and I played on Thursday October 17, 2013. The course was exceptional. The staff was exceptional. Wewould highly recommend playing Winchester Country Club in Auburrn, CA. It's picturesque, well taken care of, and the greens were fast and in excellent shape. Go Play.
TERRIBLE!!
Do not play this course unless you can go out before 9a m. By the time 60-70 members go out from 7a.m. till noon. They destroy the greens 15ft. Around the pins on EVERY GREEN!! They do not fix ballmarks, they do not sand divots. $125.00 is HIGHWAY ROBBERY!! The bunkers are filled with rocks!! I GAUGED my 8 iron on hole #3 fairway bunker, so bad, I had to replace it. Solid granite rock is the base of evert bunker.
Perfect day of January golf in CA
Maybe the best course layout in the Sacramento area.
Cart employee exception - quick, pleasant, frequent.
Minor issue but blue/white paint on curbs faded and often didn't correspond to tee box markers.
Club house, a one time strength, is unwelcoming.
Embarrassed
I played another Auburn course last week, for $45, and had a blast the course was in GREAT SHAPE. After spending $150 to play winchester muni, I was embarrassed, The course is in terrible shape.
Did not see beverage cart until the 17 th hole
For $150 they should at least provide bottled water on a hot day with a cooler mounted to the cart
Left wanting more
Scenery and layout is great. Challenging track. Condition was lacking from what I would expect from a CC.
2003-2023
What a difference in 20 years. No wonder this place has had 5 owners. It has SERIOUSLY DECLINED! NO SMOKING!!!!! it's always sloppy wet. Ball marks pock every green, fairways are burnt, and your ball plugs. Small to large ROCKS in EVERY bunker. The food was terrible!
Slow play, fairways are terrible
Played today, course was in decent shape. Pace of play was absolutely terrible. I was a single that they originally group with another group. Some members decided they didn’t want to play together so I played a 5 hour round as a single. I called the pro shop on hole 14 as there was 4 groups on the hole. Nobody’s came out to address it. For 150 dollars it is highway Robery. There is nothing special about the place and members were very rude. I went into the pro shop after to ask about why nobody came out to address the slow play. The person at the front desk wasn’t interested in having a conversation. If members are going to be rude and refuse the play in a larger group I would recommend increasing the dues so they don’t have public tee times. Greens were pretty terrible as well, very muddy and a lot of bare spots.
Worth $50.00 not $150.00
The agronomy was terrible. Over watered. Balls plugging in the fairway. The greens were full of ballparks. Nobody is fixing ballparks. The bunkers are: club damaging, muddy, rock pots. It is DEFINITELY NOT a private golf course, anymore. It is now a MUNI. It's barely worth $50. Let alone $150.00. Wait until next season. The rates will be much lower
Nice facility but course conditions are mediocre
Wish the golf shop would have told me they just punched the greens a week before. Nothing about it on Golfnow either. Fairways were not country club conditions. Muddy in lots of spots. Challenging layout, great views from the clubhouse. Nice practice facility. Overall I’d like to play it again just not at that price tag.
Punched Greens
The course didn’t lower greens fees or advise on GolfNow that they punched the greens. Played first three holes in 30 minutes. So the punched greens were frustrating… but pace was solid. Caught up to a tournament on hole four and it took us 2:15 to play the. next six holes. So on pace for a 5 1/2 hour round. So we left after 9.
The staff offered a free 9 holes next time we came in… but coming up from LA to play 9 holes in Meadow Vista… not likely. Not one to normally complain as we played the last hole with a few members of the club who were waiting as well in the group behind us. They were lovely. Apologetic of our experience and that we just got some bad luck. Overall beautiful course, just want the new ownership to know that they should either force tournaments to speed up their pace or don’t offer tee times behind a tournament. Golf etiquette 101. You better high green fees to not have these things happen. If you charge a reduced rate for punched greens and slow play… then can’t much complain.
The fairways in some spots had wet dirt and no grass and many fairways had very little grass. It was not worth $150 rate. Greens were in great shape, very fast.
Horrible course
Never seen something so expensive with nothing to offer. Greens were trashed and the whole course was a joke. Cart girls didn’t have anything
