First Time Playing

Very Impressed

Reservations were made by phone and the pros on the desk were very helpfulo and friendly. First time impression was that we were going to play a country club golf course. From the Gentleman that helped me with my Groupon registration to the gentleman that carried my bag from the car to the cart. It was fabulous. Beautiful fairways and not the easiest greens but it made the game so much more fun. The perfect day of January 31, 2018, sunny warm and just a hint of wind made each and every hole most enjoyable. I had a foursome of friends from another golf course and for three of us, we had never played Chardonnay before. I hope that this is rated in the top 10 courses in northern California because I will be back. The best woman was on the cart that traveled around the course with a great attitude and knowledge of the course. She was on time and in the right place for the front nine and also the back nine. The only down side was sand buckets on the the carts were empty and there was no sand available around the course, except for the sand traps. Suggest full sand bottles before the round. I had so much fun that I will tell friends and family about a great day at Chardonnay. . . . Go Play. . .

John, thank you for the kind words about Chardonnay! We are glad the round was smooth and fun from start to finish! Experiences like these make us smile. Can't wait to see if we can top your last experience. Hope to see you back here soon.

GolfNow makes it play even better

A fun and workable course that is introduced by Great Staff that are helpful and friendly. GolfNow made the price right with its special offer. Pairing up with 3 other gentlemen, it became fun to see how I could improve each shot to contend with the others. The day turned from foggy cold to magnificently warm and sunny. At the end of the round it had become dusk and the maintence crew were still there grooming the fairways. The course has a "Cartgirl" for refreshments and snack and she came around 3 times in the round and was very delightful to converse with.
I'll come back to this course because it is a reasonable distance from home has friendly personnel and is kept in pretty good shape.
I'll tell my friends about this course and invite them to challenge me. . . .

Pretty much a links type course

GolfNow made this happen on my Birthday with a terrific rate for my party of 3. Now questions asked and our tee time was pushed up about 1/2 hour (thank you). We paired up with a gentleman that was more knowledgeable about the course and we got some good tips during the round. There was NOT a "Cartgirl" and although the course isn't extremely long, a few holes without water makes you think twice.

A fun course to play

Running late coming from the east bay, called and the staff was Great about letting us have a later tee time. This course has its challenges and the OB is a DO NOT ENTER. Poison Oak abound so we played Vegas rules, OB, drop and play on. Always enjoy this course, Marshals are always around for slow play and are friendly and helpful. Remember that there is NO cart girl during the week so take extra refreshments when you go to the first tee. Price is worth the round. . . .

9 Holes of Pure Ocean View

What a Beautiful day on a really nice course. The front nine was typical with few challenges but the back nine was breath taking. On the whole round we were behind a group that were rather new to golf and it was a slow go. On the back side "Who cared?" it was a Beautiful day with a light breeze and an ocean view that continued on each hole. The front side is the typical course that you would find inland but the "links" type course on the back side made you work at your game.

This course is fun and entertaining with some tricky holes. . .

This course is fun. . . The traps are a challenge and the ravines are deceptive. Sometimes you have to choose your club wisely because the wind may play a factor in your direction and distance. . .We played the East course and look forward to not only playing it again but also the West course. . .

The course was fun for the "average golfer"

This is a fun course for family and friends. We have played it about 4 times and always put it on our "return courses". The pro shop is well stocked for not being very big. The personnel are nice and the maintence crew are all over the course taking care of fairways and greens.

Best Muni Course around

A great walking course. Tee boxes, fairway and greens are in Great shape. The greens are "rolled" and can be a great challenge for the average golfer. A Friday crowd of couples and once a week players but all was flowing smoothly thanks to the Marshals that were always watching the pace of play. Sand traps could use a little better sand but over all the course played very well.

What a deal. . .

$15.00 for 18 holes of golf on a fun and challenging course. There was a shotgun tournament, best ball, but the staff at the desk got us right out on time. The course was in Good condition and the views were fabulous from the 8th tee box. The tee boxes and greens are in really good shape and will even get better come fall. We will play this course again and use GolfNow.com because it saved us about $30.00. Keep up the good work with the Great Prices. . .

Course Maintenence

The staff was fun and helpful,from the desk staff to the starter. The Marshal was on time and encouraging during play. I had played the course a few times before and this time it was in bad shape.
The course was either high and dry or deep and wet. The tee boxes were good and the greens were in good condition. There was construction on the back nine and some "ground under repair" areas. I will go back with a two for one deal or I get word that the fairway maintaince and construction is completed.
