Diablo Grande Golf & Country Club
Played On 04/28/2019Great course, best cookies!
Ok so I admit the cookies in the Ranch Market at the course always put me in a great mood before a round, so I’m a little bias. But, the cookie bias aside I love this course. I think it’s a little over priced for the location, 50 bucks range for a weekend round would be killer, 35 during the week perfect. But usually you can get a good deal on apps like GolfNow. Regardless this course is always in great shape, beautiful scenery, and the food is really good. If this course was closer to Livermore it would be battling Poppy for business.
Dublin Ranch Golf Course
Played On 04/26/2019Great Course!
First time playing here so wasn’t sure what to expect. I typically prefer long courses but this course won me over. Most of the greens were in great shape. Fun layout, beautiful scenery. Staff was very friendly. Absolutely love it.
Deer Ridge Golf Club
Played On 04/20/2019Friendly Enough Staff, Not well managed
I honestly hate to be negative in a review but sometimes negative feedback can help management know where to make some changes so hopefully this is not taken as mean spirited because that is not my intent. The greens were hot or miss, understand they need to be aerated but some of the greens were just patchy bumpy. All of the bathrooms were locked on the course. The snack shop/grill was closed when we came around the turn around 9am. Some areas that should have been cut back were left to grow and weeds were a bit out of control. Mind you if this was a 35 dollar course, I wouldn’t have much to complain about. But for 50 bucks I expect a little better. Still, 50 on a Saturday morning would be a decent price if the greens were in better shape, bathrooms were open, and I could order a breakfast sandwich and a Bloody Mary at the turn. Again, staff was polite so always appreciate that. This course can be better but until word gets around that it’s back on track, gotta move this course down the list a bit.

Van Buskirk Park Golf Course
Played On 07/22/2018Not well maintained for the money
The staff was very friendly, especially the cook. The course and facilities are unfortunately a different story. There were no range balls in the morning because someone didn’t feel like collecting them from the range the day before. The tee boxes were a mess, fairways were full of random holes. Several of the yardage markers are missing. Some of the holes didn’t have yardage/hole signs. The list goes on. On a positive note, the greens were actually pretty good except for one on the back 9 that looked like someone dig a few small holes and covered them back up. I would not be as critical if the price was somewhere around 15 bucks with a cart, but 33? No way that course is worth 33 bucks.
Merlot/Chardonnay at Poppy Ridge Golf Course
Played On 12/03/2017On Par with Some of the Best in California
When a GolfNow Hot Deal comes along for this course, jump on it! I haven’t played some of the Monterey courses which have the advantage of being on the Pacific coast and all the views that come with the location, but this course has to be up there with them all just based on beauty, layout, and how well it is maintained. I highly recommend this course especially if you can get in at a bargain rate. At 100 to 150 range it is a bit pricey for my budget, but at the 40tp 60 range you can’t beat it. My only recommendation is the same I have for many courses I play. I expect to be treated like you would treat a member when I show up. Not asking for a red carpet, just a friendly greeting and cordial demeanor will do. I have played here 4 or 5 times and never once got anything other than what I owe and what courses I am playing. Nobody has ever been disrespectful so I don’t want to be misleading. I sincerely want to join a club someday and I just seem to find it hard to find a place that makes me feel welcome to the point where I would be willing to make the investment in a membership. Still, great course. Will keep playing here if the price is right.
Tracy Golf & Country Club
Played On 12/01/2017Nice course for the money
Overall this course is a good value. I would even say it’s above average when it comes to value. Greens are really good. Some tough greens mixed in with some easy ones for a nice balance. As far as the course condition goes, my only complaint is probably not a problem for most of you scratch golfers out there. I play Army golf (left, right, left) so I tend to end up missing the fairway quite often. I’m usually willing to accept the consequences but this course is particularly frustrating because there is a time of dirt/rocky areas instead of just tall grass or your typical rough. Look, I know I shouldn’t complain and just play better, but when you have a great value like this course does, a good number of the customers will play like me. I just hate hitting off of that dirt.
As for my rating on the staff, every lady that works there is friendly and polite. The men however don’t give off the same vibe. I honestly feel like I’m walking in to a private club I am not a member at. I must add one caveat however, they have never said a mean or unprofessional word to me. Just kinda indifferent I guess. I am from the south and probably more friendly than they are used too I guess.
Bottom line, worth the money and I will continue playing here on a regular basis as long as it stays that way. Would appreciate a little more hospitality but maybe that comes with the membership?
Fantastic! We're trilled that our course conditions met your expectations and that you enjoy our cookies in the Ranch Market. We appreciate your review and we can't wait to have you back again soon at Diablo Grande!
