This course is extremely popular in the Bay Area because of its wildlife and beautiful scenery. There is a creek that come into play on thirteen holes. The slightly-sloped greens are soft enough to hold your shots because they are frequently watered. In addition, a couple of the greens are two-tiered.

Better be accurate with your shots!, Jul 07, 2007

reviewer: steve platt from East Bay, California

Very nice easy going course in 2 quiet natural canyons. A mostly short course but you must be accurate on most holes as the creek borders the fairways on many holes. If you are a right hander that slices or pushes the ball you will have a looong day as the creek is usually on the right of the fairway. A cool and shady course with little wind to worry about. There are birdie holes but there are plenty of 'others' waiting for you if you aren't accurate with your tee shots. Beautiful setting to spend the day.

Memorable experience, Sep 02, 2005

reviewer: Homi from Livermore, CA

I found the course to be somewhat challenging and even difficult on some holes. The back nine starts with a very challenging par 4 and then hits you with a series of even tougher holes. It was then I realized I had gone too far. I was in way over my head and indeed my life was in serious danger. My heart raced in anticipation of what might lie ahead. Would it be a par 3 and a return to a enjoyable round? Sadly no, that was not my fate. My life would change forever on the 13th hole. In ways I cannot describe.

Fun Course, Jul 09, 2004

reviewer: Pat from Danville, CA

I've not run into any rude or difficult people, although I have heard stories... I have found the course interesting with lots of water as a challange. Often there are deer prancing around and the trees and mature landscape are wonderful. I reccommend it for a good day of golf and beautiful scenery. It's not too expensive as well.
