Lets start with the staff friendliness during the making of a tee time. It was nonexistent. Rude, unprofessional and not helpful. I have played here several times over the years. I brought my adult son to show him a great course. Well the course was scruffy at best. Numerous bunkers with grass growing in them. Even with covid, they had rakes for us to use but the bunkers had not been touched in days at least. The greens were ok to good. The fairways were patchy and scruffy. Just poor maintenance all around. And all this for only $105 per golfer with cart. I may have felt a little better if it was $50 or under per golfer. I will wait to see how other reviews are before I go back.

Diablo Grande was in pretty good condition. The tees were maintained, the rough was cut to a reasonable level, you could find your ball. But the bunkers were in very poor condition. The sand was un raked and thin in many spots, I know because I hit about 8 bunkers unfortunately. Compared to other Troon golf courses I have played, this was a bit of a let down. Overall, the course was OK. The staff was very friendly and the grill had nice food.

Staff was excellent, course was beautiful and very playable. Lots of unique holes and shots. Just a great value for a wonderfully maintained muni golf course. Go play!

Grass and desert and no in between. Large wide open fairways, some moderate forced carries, nothing ridiculous if you play the correct tees. I played the silver tees. The fairways were incredible, greens were excellent, the bunkers needed some grooming, they were not in perfect condition. High expectations for a Troon Nicklaus golf course, mostly met. The grill was pretty basic but the views were fantastic. All staff members were courteous and polite.

Took my son to Wente with a Golf Moose Voucher. The fun began when I went to the counter and showed my voucher and was told. OK lets see if this is a good voucher. Whew it was, of course I knew that. Then he asked for my $110 and of course I told him it had already been paid. The course was in generally poor condition, which is strange because it was perfect the last time I played. The tee boxes had not been mowed in several days. They were almost to tall for my 4 inch tees. The areas off of the fairway were not playable. The fairways were nice and the greens were a bit fuzzy but good. I was overall disappointed. Maybe next time.

Just when we give it another chance, it is a dump again. The course conditions are so bad that Lockeford must be getting ready to shut down. Some of the greens are horrible. The fairways are so bumpy you can injure yourself if your are not careful, I know because I did. The bunkers are almost never prepared properly if at all. You would be lucky to find a sleeve of balls in the pro-shop and the icing on the cake, the grill was closed after our round, but we could still get a wiener in the bar. Shape up or sell out PLEASE Lockeford. This course is a fun playable layout when it is maintained. Not now.

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.

Course is improving and the greens are in great shape. Lots of tree trimming is making the course look great. Nice easy walking track. Beautiful oak trees.

I have golfed swenson for the last 40 years. I have never seen the greens this perfect. The only issue was the ball marks that jerks didnt fix. The fairways were ok and tee boxes are a little scruffy. The course was generally well maintained. The staff and cafe folks were friendly. Overall great shape for the middle of a drought.

Nice course conditions. Drought does not seem to be an issue. Pace of play was fine. NO restaurant. The airplanes taking off right next door are kind of cool at first but then it gets to be a little much. Overall a decent course but get a deal.

Great course for your private events. Wonderfully maintained and fun to play. Nice greens etc.

The tees were ok. The fairways are getting brown and the rough was full of weed clover flowers.. hard to find the ball. Bunkers were better than they have been but still need work. The greens were good, lots of ball marks but overall good condition. Hope Lockeford can survive the drought....

Course was in good condition. Greens were excellent, tee boxes were ok and fairways were good. Just dont stray from the areas mentioned above. Each hole is pretty much outlined by knee high snake country grass. If you spray the ball you better have plenty of ammo. The food was good and the service was fantastic by the restaurant staff. Pretty expensive but worth every cent. On course marshals were friendly and pace of play was great. The greens have some grain and some hard to read slopes and were in excellent condition.

Without a doubt the best course I have played in the valley. With the exception of Spyglass the best course I have ever played. It is perfectly groomed, the greens are unbelievable, everything on and off the course was fantastic. Every hole is fair if you choose the correct tee boxes based on your index. I played the green tees and every hole was reachable in regulation. The real thrill and work starts around the greens. Every hole is distinctive and memorable. If you get a chance GO.... The cool towel and club cleaning at the end of the round was a nice finish. Along with a cold beer on the patio while just enjoying the views. I will have to save a few pennies to go back but it will be worth every cent!

The greens were better than average with some ball mark scars but good condition. There were some irrigation problems, many mushy spots with long grass. Sprinklers need some TLC. There were also dry spots in some areas. The staff was friendly and got me off a little early. A nice value for the money.

I have been playing golf around waldport and newport for the last 20 years... I am sad to say I did not know this golf course existed until this year. I played Olalla and it was very enjoyable. I have played Agate Beach and Crestview which are both Nine holers and Olalla is the best of the bunch. The course needs ADVERTISING, I found it on Golfnow .... good for me, but I wish I would have discovered it sooner.. Very nice course and restaurant..

Greens were great! The rest of the course is suffering from the drought. Layout is pretty fair for all players. Some blind shots. Bunkers could use some sand and attention. Pleasant staff.

Great weather made golf at San Ramon that much better. The fairways were average the greens were top notch for a muni course. Pace of play was fine. Holes are surrounded by houses. You have to cross many streets between holes. The rough was enough to hurt a little but not so much that you look for your ball forever. Distance was good. But the greens were fantastic. Don't plan on lunch, that have a full bar but the food is very very limited. Overall good value ...

Chardonnay Golf Course was a pleasure to play. The staff was friendly but had to be asked to clean our clubs after the round. The greens were in generally good condition. The fairways were ok but had some dead spots. The weather was perfect.

Nice course good layout, needs some water. Greens are fun but need some care.
