Pace of play

It’s crazy to have a 7:10 tee time and finish at 12:25. Pace of play was not upheld and it was a very long round. Would love to play this course again but this is the second 5 + hour round when having an early tee time.

You have got to be kidding me

First tee time is 6:30 for this course. @6:40 the club house was still closed. The cart guy gave keys for carts and asked players to go out and come back on the honor system to pay. At 6:42 the clubhouse opens and since the first group was slow as molasses, I went to pay for green fees and cart. Turns out the Director of Operations was the one who was late. Go figure.

At the turn, we go into the clubhouse to be met with the most unfriendly lady. Must’ve also had a long night because she had the worst attitude and acted like she didn’t want to be there. She had her shirt inside out and looked a mess. When we asked for a breakfast burrito, she said the crew the night before didn’t take them out of the freezer so it would take 7-10 minutes to cook. Probably shoudve had some cooking instead of making the time between groups wait an extra 7-10 minutes. So instead we ordered breakfast sandwiches which the lady proceeded to handle without gloves on. Pretty ratchet as far as a golfing experience but must’ve been the reason it was the last course on the 680 corridor that had an early tee time.

Never again… close this place…

I got a call back from the operations manager who insisted this is not the way things go down at this course. I went to play today to give the course another chance and aside from the heat, today was a much better experience. I look foreword to giving this place another chance since it’s centrally located between my friends and family and located close to the freeway.

Thanks for taking the time to write to us regarding your experience out here today. I deeply apologize for how things were handled this morning. We had an emergency last minute call off from the shop opener and I (the direction of operations) tried to run up to the course as fast as I could to cover the pro shop. We sent our first tee time out without paying to make sure your starting time was not delayed. I can ensure something like this will not happen again the next time that you are here.

Regarding your experience in the pub, I will be speaking with their manager and inform her about everything that you have mentioned.

Please give us a call or email me at ahladek@wgolfp.com. I would love to see if there's anything we can do for you. Thanks again.

Supply and demand

Even though they always have single spot open early, it’s hard to recommend this course because of the current course conditions especially with rising green fees.
I payed $101 to play on a course with sand and dry tee boxes. I think the tee boxes had more sand than the sand traps.

Sadly due to COVID golfers taking up all the tee times, I’ll. Be back complaining about the course conditions.

Hard pan everywhere

Been a year since I’ve played here and the lack of watering and lack of fairway grass made it a $70 round of hitting off hard pan. Maybe I’ll check back in 5 or 10 years.

My old track...what happened to ya?

Never seen these fairways so bad. I used to love this course but the conditions have gone downhill. I still had fun but this time it didn’t make me feel like coming back. You know that feeling right? Just didn’t happen this time.

Probably the last time I’d play here

So I arrive and the three some that booked to leave the empty single spot open was apparently actually a 4 some for a group of members of the course. I don’t go play a round of golf to play solo. But that’s how it played out. 4 members pushed me out to play as a single and the twosome who were also members with whom I may have been paired up with apparently no showed.

Course condition was just okay. Obviously with the SIP, there was time for fairways and greens to recover. But the sand traps and many areas around the greens looked like a scene from I AM LEGEND if there was a golf course scene in the movie.

The only bright spot to this golf course was the Marshall. Such a good dude and made his rounds to do what he could to accommodate all players in the field.

There are plenty of golf courses in the Bay Area... if you have to choose, you can pass up on this place.
