Happy New Year

Played this course the New Year morning. Due to the previous night's celebration we just like a lot of people were late to our tee time. They were extremely helpful with fitting me in along side a few walk-on players and my playing partner that decided to wake up after his scheduled tee time. The staff was all around amazing. Due to the weather we may have lost a ball or two in the bunkers with the ridiculous downpour the night before, but overall it wasn't too bad on the course. Wind pushed over a tree on a green, and one green was half flooded, but other than that I had no complaints. Of course they have one of the most frustrating finishing holes in the bay area, but my group had fun.

Golf moose deal was great but...

Paying $50 for a cart (that I did not use) while receiving range balls and a $10 voucher to use in the restaurant was definitely the highlight of our experience. The cart although equipped with a GPS was a pain in the rear end for those I played with. With the rain came the cart path only rule, so I decided to walk it. Only problem was after the first hole there was no signs of yardage or direction on where the next hole or tee box would be. I will also add that the course doesn't drain well at all. I know that I expected quite a bit of mud but it was ridiculous when the irrigation seemed to cause even more problems than the downpour we've had over the past few days.

On a lighter note, the staff was pretty friendly as far as those who actually spoke, and the food was pretty good as well. Honestly I'm not sure if I'd play here again but it could be better with a few improvements. If I do play here it definitely won't be in the winter time, and I would never pay the $99 that they're asking for on the weekend.

Was perfect 9 in time for Thanksgiving

We started early in order to not conflict with the families' Thanksgiving schedules. Super fast greens the, a few ground under repair areas, the tee boxes could have been maintained better and they should have had the back 9 available by now but it's not ready yet. Overall not a bad course, and I would play again, but there's no discount for Alameda County residents, nor kids. The price is good when discounted or if you can find a hot deal, otherwise I'll pass. It's sad because I pass by the course often and it seems I'm not the only one with the same sentiment.

It was fun

Loved the layout and the par 5s. Enjoyed the elevation changes. Greens were in good shape. Challenging but fun course. Played a bit slow but I was out on Father's Day, so it was amazing

Disappointed

When I first played the course I was impressed. I didn't like the mats for tee boxes, but ohh well. Coming back to the little nine hole I expected at least the same but was disappointed to see the upkeep of the course had gone significantly downhill. There was a fungus on quite a few greens and no repair to any of the divots. Not to mention the fairways were pretty soggy. It was a nice 9 hole, now I wouldn't waste my time playing it.

Early morning fog

Course was in pretty good shape a few wet spots. Pace of play was pretty slow due to multiple groups with 5+ people. I guess the fog could have had something to do with it but they were slow. For the price it was still a great value

Good course but too expensive

Enjoyed playing here as I always have. The pace of play is slow. The course was in decent shape. Considering the rain it drained well. The course is not a $100 course with a cart. Brown spots in the fairways, recently punched greens, and muddy cart path prove otherwise. The staff is always on point, the food and drinks are always amazing. But to pay $70 to $80 to walk...not ride and if you want a cart another $20, but not coming with a GPS...it's totally not worth the price. They're charging Wente, Yocha Dehe, or Poppy Prices without the course, the carts or environment. I'm just saying it's a bit pricey unless you live on the island. As usual I still had a great time with the folks I went out with.

Extremely slow round

The fairways were good, much better than our last visit. The tee boxes were decent, compared to last time. The greens were extremely slow and bumpy as they were last time. The round was horribly slow as an almost 6 hour round occurred. We had a group ahead of us and a group right on our tail the entire round. The only true disappointment was the fact that they didn't throw out a couple of ridiculously drunk golfers that were ruining everyone's round and driving up on to the greens and through the vineyards crashing carts.

Beautiful but unexpected

Course was in great shape tee box to greens mainly because it was 90* rule on the front, and cart path only on the back. If I had known prior to the arrival than I would have probably brought my push cart, and just walked the course. We also happened to choose the day that the driving range was closed due to full ball retrieval and grass cutting being scheduled in the morning.

Wet

The some parts were overwatered, others were freshly cut without really removing the excess grass. Tee boxes needed work, greens could have been better.

Amazing views

Came up to enjoy a family day, and the course with its views didn't disappoint. Was totally overcast and cold but the backdrop to every hole was worth the drive. As everyone mentioned the last few holes right off the beach were pretty amazing.

Nice and flat but kinda long

Course wasn't bad pace was a bit slower than a normally paced round. 9th and 18th holes were unexpected but I enjoyed playing this track and will definitely be back.

Had a great time

Challenging layout quite a few blind shots. Par 3s were challenging with the wind but I enjoyed every bit of it. And we had a good time with the group that played with us. I will definitely be back...ohh by the way the food was really good at the turn, but call in and order at the 7th hole so its ready by the time you get there

Disappointed

Wanted to play the course, since my family lives in the community. The condition of the course was horrible. Frank the marshal was overbearing and the gate attendant was rude to one of the guys in my group. The bunkers were the most disappointing of anything where they looked like that hadn't been tended to in years.

Staff amazing

Facilities and staff were amazing. The regulars not quite so much. Not sure if I'd go again, but their deal was a good one. There is a possibility I would check it out again in the future, but I would think twice about it.
