This course's greens are sloping, small, and fast. The tree-lined fairways still afford generous landing areas, and many of them are doglegs. Water hazards (streams and ponds) come into play on many holes. The signature hole is #16, a 475-yard, par 5, requiring an approach shot to a four-tiered green.

Into The Wind, Jul 04, 2008

reviewer: Peter B. from concord, ca

Would not recommend this course. Every shot is into the wind. Tremendous distance between tees. Got lost between 2nd and 3rd holes. Absolutely can't walk this course. Good condition. Nice setting. Nice staff. Just too many other places to play instead of making the effort to this remote course.

Perhaps a little too challenging for a short hitter, Apr 18, 2004

reviewer: Phil B from Berkeley, ca

This golf course is set in the Novato hills in a beautiful location. The views are stunning and the course looks like fun. However the sheer length of the course on a super windy day made it less so. The first three holes were straight into the wind and none of my party could make the par 5s in three shots. Tough. There are some great holes on this course - the 16th drops forever to a large tiered green. The par 3s also show a lot of topography making them interesting. There is some cunning bunkering to catch the unwary. The elevator between holes was perhaps the coolest thing on the course! The condition of the course was a little poor and the rough is plain evil. Don't play your Titleist V1s unless you want a costly day. Overall, not bad and probably more fun if the wind ain't blowing.

Indian Springs Golf Club
"Indian Springs - Hidden Jewel"
This course is in a rural setting, with many farms around. Getting to it is a challenge, but once there, some pleasurable hours will be had. The course was well maintained, with good fairways and well manicured greens. There is almost an "upper level" and "lower level" for play and the elevation changes pretty dramatically for middle Illinois. There are plenty of water hazards, woods and places to make shots, so the course may be tough for new players. For shotmakers, it is a great skill test. The signature hole offers a scenic tee, overlooking two water hazards, gazing out into a woods and just barely able to see the dogleg right hole. Anything too far out or left or right goes out of play, and bunkers guard the green on the approach. The clubhouse has the essentials for refreshments, the price is moderate and the staff are friendly. I would recommend this course to anyone for an enjoyable outing and challenge.

Sheraton Steamboat Golf Club & Resort
"Dutch"
A tremendous couse in a beautiful mountain setting, especially in September and October when in full fall foliage, the afternoon temperatures in the low 70's and the skies so blue the horizon lines become razor sharp. The back nine challange you with mountain streams, blind doglegs, an occasional buck jumping from a creek bed and or lofty tee boxes daring you to choose a loftier iron for dropping it between the aspens and the traps.... Not too many courses in the world offer better views, thinner air for longer drives, or nicer people to pamper your needs. July through mid October is prime... take plenty of time and the closest of friends, I guarantee you a memorable experiance and a challanging round!

"Outstanding"
This is one of the most beutiful golf courses in the great North West. Every hole has it's challenges such as long narrow fairways, tightly placed pins, and ponds throughout. The plush greens and marvolous clubhouse are just two of many great amenities this course has to offer.

Del Monte Golf Course
"Del Monte -- Fun and touch -- old school"
Great course, classic layout, old style, just a wonderful golf experience. I've played Old Del Monte many times. It is a slightly shorter and yet just as fun older brother to several of the other Monterey/Carmel area courses. Oldest golf course west of the Mississippi River, it is close to the Monterey airport, close to hotels, and provides a wonderful, old-feel idea of what it was like to play on courses before big land movers shapped and sculpted the ground. It is fun to play, fun to hang around at the pro-shop/coffee shop. Just a really neat golfing experience.
