Won't be back until they fix this.

This was the most lost I have ever been on a golf course. They have changed the card but not the signage. The cart paths are mostly undefined, and there appears little logic to the layout. One example, hole #10 is the last hole on the front, on the way into the clubhouse!!! Crazy. Local guy told me it has been this way for months.

Hidden Gem

Swenson GC in Stockton has a lot going for it like putting greens, pitching greens, driving range, eatery; but most importantly to ALL golfers is the maintenance of the Fairways and Greens. My hats off to the Grounds Keepers, best in San Joaquin county.

Very wet course

Course was very wet after all the rain in the area. A few downed trees but mainly poor drainage so lost a few balls in the middle of the fairway due to the muck. Fairways were not cut either so very long grass. Older carts for a muni course was very surprising (mine had ripped seat and saw that on quite a few of them)

Love Swenson Park, dislike new routing

This is one of my favorite municipal courses, I live in San Jose and frequently drive to Stockton to play here. The layout is gettable yet interesting, with plenty of length. The price is great, and the greens are usually in awesome condition.

One negative: I dislike the new routing, the final stretch of holes are now moved to the end of the front, so you start with a par 5 and then there are 3 par fives on the back. I’ve heard it’s to encourage people to go to the restaurant after the 10th hole, but it wrecks the flow of the original routing.

Picky I know, just hoping the course takes constructive critique well.

Nice course

The course doesn't have fancy extras. The fairways are what you expect with the wet weather, but the greens were in great condition, especially for January.
