Disappointing

Boring course layout with most holes straight away. Rough was not cut in what looked like an extremely long time which made it difficult and even unfair trying to find your ball. Driving range was mats and irons only. No cart girl on Monday. Tiny putting green by #1 hole. The fairwarys and greens were good. Would not play this course again unless it was $10 with a cart for 18 holes.

Painful

Teed off at 810 on a Sunday Morning, thought we would be done by noon. Well we finished up at 230. Will not go back on a weekend. Too many weekend warriors. Not that it has anything to do with the course, but we were paired with a couple guys who obviously don't get out much and the drinking started at the first tee and by the turn, they were loud, obnoxious and just plain annoying. It was a bummer, the course was in good shape but most greens had been beating up from the weekend warriors who don't know to or how to repair ball marks. I'll have to go back during the week and play again before I could recommend it.

Everything you want in a golf course

I was a member but opted out because I just didn't play enough! But it really is a great golf course to play with a great staff and a great shop and restaurant! I really recommend this course to any level player, young and old.

Play Elkhorn Golf Course ASAP

Play here and you will have fun. The course is not long but has many hole that play long or longer than they look. Awesome greens, the front pins are death. You want middle of greens and sideways putts to be aggressive as they turn towards hole and move quick, or putts from front of green up to middle or back. Word around town is these are the old Olympic Club Greens.
Overall a good design and use of land.

Really like the greens here.

Nice course

Keep the ball in play here. The greens were in nice condition but a little soft and because of this there is quite a bit of damage from ball marks. The trees have been trimmed nicely and the course was in overall good condition.

Challenging golf

It is a narrow golf course with sloppy greens. If you can drive straight of the tee, then you can take on the course with ease.

challenging but fun

The greens were aerated on Monday September 21st, so they were a little bumpy, but the green fee was discounted about 50%. Course is otherwise in very good shape. Pace of play was excellent, we played as a 2-some riding and finished in just over 3 hours. Premium for putting the ball in the fairway off the tee as several holes are tree-lined, and has 6 long par fours.

This course is in good shape...

This is a very challenging course for the average golfer. Being semi-private, some members still act like it's still just their private course!!

I hate 5somes

Course was fun. Too bad we were a twosome stuck behind a five some of players who didn't care that they were holding everyone up. I miss the days when groups were only 4.

Above Par

This course is one of Stockton's pleasant surprises. It is very well maintained and enough of a challenge to make it interesting, but not so difficult to discourage the weekend golfer. Bang for the buck is unmatched in the area. Very good beverage prices and a wonderful clubhouse cafeteria. The only dun I have is that they have sprinklers on in the middle of the fairways during peak play hours. Had to make a mad dash to retrieve balls in the rain pattern.

Narrow fairways and tee boxes

Slow play, better be able to hit it straight. No room for error!

A new outing

I have always wanted to play this course. Now that it is open to the public, do yourself a favor and enjoy the beauty. Some trees, so don't get yourself in trouble.
