Hidden gem in the Oakland Hills

This course has a great driving range..the par 3 could use a little love..but the main course is pretty well maintained now that it has rained a bit, it’s nice and green but the greens play very fast so shorten up that put stroke..the clubhouse has great snack options but they’re a little overpriced..the views of the Bay Area are very substantial and there is plenty of wildlife out..all in all had a great day here

Nice local course.

Mostly fair… lots of elevated T boxes and elevated greens… wide fairways to hit into. The greens had just been aerated so they were not in the best condition .

Rough transition period?

Our cart died. They don’t have phone service. We had to walk the last three holes and ditch the cart. When we told the clubhouse they said that they can’t do anything like a rain check for a cart in the future.

Challenging Course

A challenging course. Lots of elevation change from uphill to downhill each hole. Fairway was in pretty good condition. The green for the most part were in good condition. Some holes could use some touchup. The green at hole 9, the ball was bouncing as it roll toward the pin for one person in our group. The 18th par 6 was a unique challenge.

Chabot in the late spring

Greens were great. Fairways mowed tight. The pin setter was not in a good mood when they set #18. Take some time to take in the gorgeous views.
