Regulation at Las Positas Golf Course
Played On 08/09/2019First time playing the 18
Overall had a good experience. Course layout is not overly challenging, and was in good shape for the most part. About half the greens were recently plugged and were not really playable, but the other half were nice. Beverage cart was seen multiple times which was nice given the heat. Fairways were well cut. Price is high for a muni course not in pristine shape though. One of the nicer 19th holes.
If you really care about a challenging and we'll manicured course, there are other options which are better. There are also better values. I love the links 9 course and will probably play that more often in the future, and go elsewhere for 18.

Took my wife here for her first round. The course is simple but presents challenge in the right spots for the average golfer. The first par 4 is the most difficult hole, then things become easier. Because it is built inside of a horse track there are very few reference points for holes, you'll be surprised that from time to time you need to check the map. Rough was cut very short, basically an extra wide fairway. For beginners this takes the pressure of hitting a straight shot off the tee.
Greens played fast despite the rain so I imagine when dry they play very quick, leaving some challenge for better golfers. Sand traps were in average to good condition, again given the rain this is a good sign. Fun layout overall and plays quickly.
