The course was well kept. I was pleasantly surprised with the maintenance of fairways, bunkers and greens. Hard to find all 3 course features well kept. Definitely caught my attention. The pace of play was good through out 18 holes. The water igloos were filled with COLD water. Hole #7 or hole #9 had an intercom to place a food order with a posted food menu inside a 3’ X 3’ rock booth. One of the better all around golf courses I have attended in the North Bay as a beginning golfer.

Avoid the bunkers! I think it’s fair to say that most golf courses struggle with providing a true sand bunker experience. Unfortunately, these bunkers were totally unacceptable and need to be improved. Also, certain roughs were over saturated with water.

My wife and had a good time here. We stopped by after watching Sebastian Maniscalco at the Santa Barbara Bowl. The course layout incorporates beautiful views of the valley and hillsides towards the middle of the course. The long fairways are accompanied by beautiful mature trees. Green side sand bunker on hole 14 or 15 definitely didn’t feel like sand. A bit congested in the beginning. Skipped 2 or 3 holes and pace of play picked up. I would encourage more cart signs to avoid cart markings next to greens. Extended cart paths would be nice to avoid and preserve the beautiful topography. The check in building and bar area was a bit outdated for me and could use an upgrade. Overall, great experience. Staff was friendly and helpful. Had a good time.
