Great Course

The course was a long awaited opportunity to play golf on a fairly decent course after months of rain. The course was in good condition but not what it can and will be in a few more weeks. The course isn't very challenging for those with lower handicaps, but great for everyday golfers. They have a gold tee box for those with handicaps 13-25, which makes the course a little shorter.

Great Course

Great course to see wildlife, due to the recent rains the grass is long on the fairway as well as the rough; bring extra balls! They continue to work on making the course better, it should be in good shape after the rains.

Tough Course

This course is not for walk in the park player, but it does have some nice views of the bay. Just about every green is sloped so after a few times playing the course you'll have a better approach plan. Bring extra balls you'll have a few opportunities to go out of bounds or land in the rough; forgot to mention many of the fairways are sloped. This course is a challenging , but I shall return, I'm a low 90's high 80's player and have yet to break 100 on this course!

Windy, Cold and Noisy

I enjoyed hitting balls off of real grass and not hard mats on the driving range, but that was the highlight for me. The day we played it was very cold and windy, I heard that was a regular condition for the course. No problem with trees, there are very few that come into play, but there were large areas that are marked Restricted due to environmental reasons. This course is very popular to professional athletes, Warriors, Raiders etc. Give it a try, you may like it.

Challenging Course

If you like to play a challenging scenic golf course, this would be the course for you to play. The fairways are narrow and the greens as we were told were running around 10 and none were flat. Rattle Snakes were present on the course per the Marshall though we didn't see any. Nice course to challenge your golf skills.

Great Beginners Course

This is a great Beginners golf course for those that are just starting out. This is not the easiest course, there are some challenging over water holes, along with a few dogleg holes. They are currently beginning restoration work on the North Course, but still playable.

The course has great views

The course has great views of San Francisco Bay as well as Oakland hills and beyond. Bring extra balls if you tend to miss the Fairway, the rough is truly rough, tall grass! Beware of the red foxes, they are known to steal your food and other items you leave in your cart. The day I played was pretty slow, this is a popular golf course.

Narrow is the way, a few find it

This course is being improved by new management team and improvements are welcomed. The course is narrow in many places with lots of trees on one side, with a small creek on the other side of the fairway. You will see lots of wild life as you play the course, fun yet challenging course.

Different Course Views

This was a first time playing on this course, the views were very different than your normal course. This course is in an area of pasture land, wild wheat etc. The weather was bad the day we played, I would go back and give it another try.

Club Packing Walking Course

1st time playing this course, I've played the 18 hole course many times. This is a walking course, be prepared to back pack your clubs (lighten the load), this is a hilly course with some steep climbing holes, the longest is 162 yards. Wonderful course with some spectacular views, not only good golf but great exercise.
