Comments: Beautiful course, lots of trees and even some wildlife. Usually a fun course to play, in spite of having to carve shots around trees. Course has a driving range and practice greens. Course condition has been inconsistent, and some of the greens have disappointed recently.

Comments: Very tight fairways, narrow course layout. Many tees and greens are very close together and can be a bit intimidating if there are others close by. No driving range on the property.

Comments: One of my favorites. Front 9 has several water hazards, and back 9 has lots of trees and natural areas. Course is always immaculate. Even tho' it is part of Sun City, it is open to the public. Nice driving range and practice greens. Dress code is enforced.

Comments: Interesting course next to a local airport. One of the oldest courses in Sacramento, but actually in pretty good condition. Most greens are in great shape, and require some skill to read. Large trees on many fairways can make it interesting.

Comments: Wide fairways, challenging greens on the championship Allister McKenzie course. The second 18 hole course is called Arcade Creek, and has a friendly layout with less challenging greens. This facility has the best equipment/apparel store in the area. Fees are very reasonable and the access is great. Best muni course in Norcal. Best driving range too. Has automatic tee system! There is also a fitting studio on site.
