Everything at Youcha De He is top noch. From dropping your clubs to the pratice area to the first tee is 1st class. The carts are new, and way more upscale than Muni carts. GPS is provided as well as free water bottles at the bathrooms scattered around the course.
It gets very hot on the course if the Temps are above 90* so be aware.
Youcha is one of the most outstanding golf courses in Northern Ca...

Drove from the Bay Area to Napa to play Chardonnay. The course was dry (no standing weater) and only one fairway was caart path only. The fairways were perfect and the green were running around 10. The course was not crowded, and we had a greeat day.
Employee are very nice and be sure to tip the cart employee- he worked hard to make sure we were all set to go, and cleaned the clubs after the round..

Every time I make the trip from the Bay Area it is always a special feeling to drive up to Yocha and play a magicial 18 holes. Everything about the resort screams WELCOME- the bag check, the pro shop, the starters , the cart ladies, the marshals, the free towels on hot days, the free water are all pluses for me.

The course is spotless- Well done grounds crew...

Plenty of cart, great practice area, friendly staff..
Good day!

We last played a month ago, they were just punching the greens. Went back today and the course is suffering worst conditions. Every green has a fungus, very little grass and large barren spots on every green. They are both working on. The tee boxes ( all sanded, and punched) as well as numerous bare spots on all the fairways. We have played this course numerous times doing the year- never seen it in worst shape. We will not be returning to this course until it is playable again.
VERY DISAPPOINTED....

Booked a great $30 rate on GOLF NOW for play at one of my favorite course- Rancho Solano. They had just plugged and sanded the greens - that is why the rate was so good. Have played this course 40 plus times in years past- always using GOLF NOW. Never a problem.. Today arrived at the pro shop , checked in with my $30. check-in. The guy behind the counter asked me if I was sharing a cart. I pointed out to him that a cart was included in the $30. price today. He said "There is a $10. upcharge if you ride alone" I asked him to show me on the GOLF NOW paper where it said that, he stated it is policy at the course...During COVID times I 'm not riding with a stranger- so I was stuck with the up charge.... Little underhanded for Rancho to do this - not sure if GOLF NOW is aware...

Played this track a long time ago when I was a new golfer, and remember it as a wry tough golf course. Brought my brother in law back this weekend and we played a Sunday afternoon round.. Beautiful clubhouse , and practice area, easy check-in and off we go... All I can say is Johnny Miller must have been in a bad mood when he gave the OK for the layout for this course. From the first hole the majority of holes slope either right or left, bals roll into rough even if you hit landing areas. Most fairways are divided by ditches that are overgrown by huge bushes, making it impossible to find a ball. The greens were pitted and were like putting on velcro. We spoke to a marshal who told us the greens were plugged 18 days prior, and need about two more weeks to roll right... Also some fairways were closed to carts for no obvious reason, signs mentioned too wet, we haven't had rain in two weeks!!
I will not return to this course, much too tough for 10 plus handicap , plus the course is NOT well kept up, it appears to be neglected in upkeep.
