Vista Vallarta Golf Club - The Nicklaus Course
Played On 02/19/2019Great course, bring your app
Course was in great condition. Greens receptive, bunkers well maintained a very playable. I think the devil himself put out some of the pins for my round though. For first time players, you won’t be able to see the pin and how the hole is laid out from the tee for at least half the holes. There is no cart GPS and the scorecard does not have a print of the course so you better bring an app or other device to help you through the course.
Crystal Springs Golf Course
Played On 09/28/2014One of the best public courses in the Bay Area
Very scenic course. No real water hazards; greens are mostly flat, but narrow fairways, sloping of the fairways and trees in the "wrong place" define the challenges on this course, that is not in the "long" category.
Pace of play on Sundays is good, however I played there on a Saturday once and it was terrible (barely finished 18 holes in 5 1/2 hours).
Facilities, in particular the restrooms on the back of the Golf Shop could use some upgrades. Have not used range and don't know if they have a pitching / chipping / bunker practice area. Small putting green next to the first tee is helpful.
