I’d come back….

Greens were punched and they filled with cheap sand that had rocks which threw putts offline

Looking forward to playing Heritage Oaks again!

It was my first time playing the course. Despite a frost delay, it was a really enjoyable experience.

The staff was very friendly and kept golfers informed of the delay and the plan to get us started when the course was ready.

For early April, the course was in good shape especially the greens. The layout was great with a nice variety of holes. I look forward to my next round at the course.

One suggestion - yardages on the tee box sprinkler heads on the par 3s would be a helpful addition.

Slow group ahead.

There was a slow group ahead of us. Not sure what the Marshall said to them, but told us to push them. Let on 15 after 3.5 hours on the course. Will be back though to see the rest.

I’ll be back for sure.

Weather has been extremely dry and the course feels it. Had to club down one or sometimes two clubs. Looking forward to playing when it’s a little more lush.

Great pace of play. Although there are trees between holes I rarely felt like I was in jail and had to punch out.

Impressive Amenities

I last played here around 20 years ago when it was known as Sportsman’s. The course hasn’t changed from what I remember, just a good test of golf. The clubhouse and pro shop is new and very impressive. The driving range is nice and the balls are quality Titleist practice balls. The short game area and bunker are sizable and the sand is quality, not that thick beach sand at some courses. Place of play was excellent for a 7:50AM Sunday time. Our foursome of 2 walkers and 2 riders played in just over four hours. Our two big complaints are that the flags are all the same color, no way to differentiate distance , and they should of had some water coolers on some of the tees. Overall a nice place to Golf

Awesome course

great experience - they made us walk after I paid for carts already via golfnow, but the layout is wide open and in good condition for the beginning of the season. I’ll definitely be back.
