Executive at Las Positas Golf Course

Got on as a Golfnow hot deal so the green fees were low. Had a little bit of tropical storm Hillary blowing around so there was leaves all over a few greens. Fairways were okay. Bunkers need some work. Pace of play for our afternoon start was great. Got done in less than 3 hours and 15 mins. For me this is a once a year golf course due to conditions and distance from home.

The pace. Of play was horrific. While the Marshalls kind of did their jobs, they didn’t solve the problem. 1 group was 3 holes behind and yet the Marshalls didn’t hold them up so other groups to play through nor did they force them to skip holes.

I grew up in Pleasanton and Lospo was the only place to play. The 9 hole at the fair grounds and San Ramon Royal Vista was it. I moved out of the area and hadn’t play there I years. Played there with an old high school buddy in his weekly group. I was shocked at the condition of the course and young guys in the pro shop with no social skills is not a shock and to be expected at most places. Green fees and and the beat up cart did occur to me after the third hole. Everyone said it was because of the storms. That was April!
Just why the high fees, crappy carts, no beverage carts (and it was Saturday) rude pro shop guys and the course was beat up. From the tee boxes to greens just horrible.
Why?

The course was in terrible condition, and the pace of play was at an all-time low.

It seems they never repaired anything after the floods, almost as if they are letting the course go!

Taking this location off my course list! Never playing it again until they put in some work.

Took us 3hrs to play 9. At the turn we told the Marshal that the group infront of us were behind and he said “6hr rounds are normal if you don’t like it don’t play”
Great layout, price and conditions

If this course was $40 sure I would play it and enjoy it. But for their price point and the condition the course is always in, there are 3 other golf courses in the area for similar prices that are worth the money. Tee boxes aren’t level and are torn to shreds, fairways are either dirt or mud. Bunkers are rocks, greens are actually okay. Save your money play somewhere else.

This Muni course is a great addition to all the amazing courses in the Tri-Valley!!!

Las Positas deserves a special shout out because I had an awesome time at the course today and the greens were in amazingly good shape.

Shout out to everyone in the clubhouse, Beebs & most importantly the grounds crew!!!

Fairways Tee boxes horrible condition for $65 Muni course senior
Really.
This is a $35 course afternoon rate
Food and Staff are polite. Its not on them.
They need a greens keeper
At $65 a round they can hire Wente’s

The course was hit hard by the March rains. While lots have been done, still a major work in progress. Many fairways are cow pastures. Not sure why there are not watering??. The sand traps are a mess. Lots of standing water that looks toxic. No ball washers. No water to drink on the course. Walking carts all have broken straps with no velcro to secure your bag to the cart.

At current pricing ridiculous. Go elsewhere!

This course was nice and fun to play. For some reason, on this day, the course seemed to be very over-watered. No rain in months, but there were alot of standing water and muddy areas.

Fairways are in really bad shape. Bunkers are rock solid hard. Not enjoyable at all.
