Staff was very friendly and helpful. Course was on good shape. Fairways are very generous and greens were smooth and a reasonable speed. Course was reasonably challenging without being overly difficult. Only downside was the group of crazy slow Asians playing in front of us. 2:45 for the front. The marshal lit them up between holes 10 and 11 and they kept a reasonable pace until 16. Probably 2::20 for the back. We will return Good value for the money

Got a great "hot deal" so I decided to drive down from Fresno and give the course a try. The course staff was very friendly. One of the regulars asked me to join him so I got a little local knowledge. The course was in great shape and was a very nice lay out. The area is pretty flat, but the course makes good use of all of the available terrain features. The greens were tough for me to read but rolled true and very receptive to shots played in. There are a number of tee box options so a player can tailor the course to their game very easily. The only minor complaint is that the bunkers were pretty crusty and wet below the surface - tough to play out of with a blast type shot. Keep the ball in play and this course is relatively easy, but miss the fairly generous fairways and you will have a tough go of it.

The Oaks at Christmas Mountain was a nice course in very good shape. The course is cut through the woods and moderately challenging so have an extra sleeve or two of balls if you are crooked off the tee. The fairways were in great shape as were the greens. The greens were on the slow side, but not obnoxiously so. I would play the course again. Saw deer through out and heard a turkey gobbling in the woods. The bartender in the 19th hole (Mulligans) was friendly and the food and drink was reasonably priced.

The course is a nice lay out, and the greens were very good - decent speed and smoothness. The course has Bermuda grass fairways which are not overseeded, so you are playing off dormant grass in the fairways. Some of the holes had odd mounding in the fairways which served to penalize a good drive with odd bounces and stances. The local members I paired up with were very nice and I enjoyed the round. It's a decent value at $30.00. The range had a nice teeing area, but the landing areas were mounded and rolling so it was hard to see exactly where shots finished
