No more single

Let give some credits to the green keepers, gotta say they are keeping the sprinkler on the dead spot.

I don’t understand the new rule, “no more single”. But it is ok to have groups of six play. Don’t worry the Marshal is nice enough to tell you about the slow down and how he allow it. Otherwise than that plenty of room to miss, multiple water hazards and fresh bunkers to challenge your golf game.

Family day of fun

I had an enjoyable day today playing 18 holes. I enjoyed seeing several families playing together. Playing through wasn't an option due to wall to wall players on this beautiful January day!! I never heard anyone complain about it which made it all the better! Thanks for a great course and staff!!
I'll be playing again!!

Family friendly

It started a little rough because it appeared 3 high school ages kids were learning and messing around but on the 3rd hole they let us pass. From then on it was very nice, it also appeared to be very family friendly, the course itself was very nice, greens were good but unfortunately like a lot of courses,, golfers don’t fix divots and wear soft spike shoes but drag their feet. Lots of cats and geese which were a distraction in a good way for a couple of the golfers in my group.

Vastly improves

Watered and maintained. Plush green grass in fairways. Dead spots on greens but a heavily played course and diseases are common challenges for keepers so what can you do?
Much better condition in August than previous visits.

A Gem of Merced County

Rancho Del Rey is a nice course located in Atwater, Ca. For me it's a local course I love playing. It's 10 minutes away and the course is kept up fairly well. The staff is always friendly. I didn't go to the clubhouse today but when I do it's always staffed when friendly people. The pace of play this time was a bit slow as I was finally able to tee off about 10-15 minutes after me tee time. Seems that they could use someone monitoring the 1st hole to make sure people start teeing off.
