Heard about this course from a friend in the UK, YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED PLAYING HERE.
Nice welcome from the cart guy in the car park who brought the cart to our car. Check in staff were friendly and approachable, and and appreciated our business.We were given a brief on warm up fascilities , ie nets to hit a few warm up shots etc. No starter on first tee but we had already been informed at check in off pin placement. Would have been nice if someone had gone through the start up of the GPS on the cart, it took us a few holes to get it up and running.The carts are the old petrol engine type and were a bit sluggish - but it got us round ok.
We played off the back tees and found it a great challenge, we were a 2 ball who play off 8 and 10 handicaps. Tee boxes were in good condition,as were the fairways, and the greens were very good and fair.
Fantastic views from the top end of the course down into Bodega Harbour, it was rather a dull, low cloud day with a bit of drizzle , but the setting, views and condition of the course far outweighed that.
The last 3 holes are very interesting and a tough challenge when there’s a little breeze.
All in all I would definitely go out my way to come back here, it’s a little gem .
We were staying in San Francisco and it took about 1hour 30 mins to drive up - we’ll worth it, and we managed to get a nice green fee of $36 + tax PP for 18 holes/cart using the Golf Now app.
Pace of play was spot on - on the way back we dropped in to Sausalito for a bite to eat at Bar Bocce , in order to miss the traffic heading back in to San Francisco.
If your new to this area - It’s a MUST PLAY.
We played on Thursday 23rd May 2018 at 1pm .

I have played at this gem of a course 4 times now, this time I played Canyon then Lakes. Both 9’s were in great condition especially the greens which were fast but fair. I got my single slot on the morning of play on a Hot Deal on Golf now- very lucky to get the price I did , pin positions were challenging . Please if you get the chance play this course it’s only 10 mins from the Strip.
