Overall

Nice overall. Greens were a little slow, but the ball rolled well. Some bunkers has no sand, however, found out later they are in the process of reworking/fixing the bunkers.

Choose elsewhere.

Greens very slow. May not have been cut or rolled for days. Fairways we're ok. Tee boxes rough at best. Bunkers were ok at best. Maintenance is not a priority in my opinion. Not fan of gas carts, however the one we had seemed very new. Unfortunately, the cart was the best part of the round.

Disappointment

Tee boxes bad. Fairways ok. Greens were extremely slow. Best days are far behind. Interesting history. SF Giants spring training camp during early 80s. Now, the history is the best thing about this place from a golf angle.

Greens

Course in good shape. Greens need some attention. They rolled ok. Golfers need to help by fixing ball marks. Greens need some TLC.

Grossly overpriced

Played for the first time today, 11/7/2020.
Very tight. I know it's November, but it didn't appear in many areas they were too concerned with removing leaves from the course.
Not much of a range. Enough to hit a few irons.
Staff was friendly. Covid has the clubhouse closed, however they did their best with an outside tent.
The condition of the greens were poor. Very slow and not very well kept. $20 for a cart is ridiculous, and $65 for greens fees in November is equally outrageous.
Won't be back..

Windy weather
Used cart

Greens and course good shape

One person working the club house, doing double duty checking in players as well as working the bar. Didn't seem too happy about it.
Windy, so there were a lot of downed leaves making it tough to find the ball even in the fairway, however that's golf in the midwest in the fall. My clubs didn't work right which made it a tougher day than usual! LOL A few holes had old ball marks around the cup that appear to look like they were there prior to the hole being cut. Should have been repaired when new hole is cut..

Update

Course has some major drainage issues. Hole 2, a par 5 was set up as a par 3 due to flooded fairway. We did get a lot of rain, but that was several days ago. This hole is the biggest issue. Bunkers are still below average, however it does seem the issue is being addressed.
My biggest issue isn't with course maintenance by the staff. It 's the golfers. Not repairing ball marks. Slamming clubs on the greens. Very disrespectful!!. Worst I've seen anywhere. People, clean up your act!

One of my favorites. Greens very receptive. Only one negative I have is that it always seems to be overly wet. Over watered.

Only one coarse issue

Bunkers are beyond bad. Large stones and very little sand. Being in a bunker is bad enough. Having very little sand is even worse. Try to hit a sand shot and the club hits clay 1/2 inch below surface, club skids, you either end up blasting it across the green or you don't get out at all.
