This beautiful course is located in the countryside. The small greens are fast, and the narrow fairways are tree lined. Water hazards come into play on six holes, plus sand bunkers are spread throughout the course. The feature hole is #18, a short, downhill 280-yard, par 4, which has a lake guarding the entire front of the green, making for a tough approach. This hole also provides a view of the course's unique old-style clubhouse. The course opened as a nine hole design in 1963, then expanded to eighteen holes in 1968. The City of Watsonville plans to convert this to a municipal course in the future.

 Short tight course, Nov 20, 2007

| The greens here are in great condition (very small), but you can get some crummy fairway lies on the back nine. The first two holes are pretty tough back-to-back par fours. This is a traget course on the front nine, particularly holes #3,#4, and #5. Two of the par fives (#6 and #17) are reachable in two for the big hitters. The par 4 twelfth hole is not very playable. There is OB left and right with trees guarding the left. The fairway slopes severely left to right towards the ravine that is OB after about 170 yds. In the summertime this fairway won't hold a brick! I've hit some nice straight three woods off the tee only to never find my ball. You either have to lay up to 175 yds. out or try and get a few more yards by sneaking it along the sliver of the fairway along the left side, but don't get too close because you'll be OB on the adjacent hole to the left. Don't be above the hole on the green. You can miss a 4 footer from above the hole and have it run 15 to 20 feet by. Good luck on this hole, you'll need it! |

Local Flavor Shorter Course, Sep 04, 2007

| Spring Hills golf course has a very down home feeling coming from the staff and the smallish club house. The course has a rural setting away from homes and noise. The best views are had from the elevated back nine. However beware of number four, very narrow hole and number eight, the green is treacherous. There are three elevated tees. Also the price for what you get is about the best in Sonoma County. Enjoy. |
