Great course but greens had just been sanded

When in top condition probably a great course, but greens were sanded heavily and it was like putting on a beach.-

Really slow for a Monday

Usually one of my favorite courses. Had a frost delay that got us started late. Even after the groups in front of us started to spread out, the pace never picked up and nobody came onto the course to try and fix it. Pretty disappointed at how long it took to get the round in. The course is in excellent shape.

One of the best finds Ive made on GN

I was traveling and wanted to break up the drive, found a good discounted "HOT DEAL" and planned my trip around the tee time, even if I was not able to complete my round. Pulling onto property I instantly knew greens were going to be good. Recognizing a dye indicator meant someone had taken to care to spray green. Short window to warm up , I eagerly made my way to the practice putting green. True and very speedy downhill, I had a good feel and went to tee off. The fairways were good, firm and dry, bunkers were manicured and freshly raked on a Thursday. Greens rolled consistent and demanded my attention all day. I managed them well, played all 18 holes with 3 locals who were inviting and a real treat to play alongside of. I told every staff member I could that the superintendent was doing a great job, it was clear the crew cared how the course was presented. I got lunch at turn, staff was awesome there and a good sandwhich, THANKS what a nice stop.

Slow play by threesome

A LOT of BALL MARKS on several greens, reason for course and overall "good" rating. Does Rancho have a Marshall program? It would have been nice 2025JAN05. Threesome in front of us by 2 holes, had a foursome directly in front of us, the 3some had 3 open hole in front of them. Our twosome passed the 3some on the 12th hole and we finished in 4 hours. Not too bad but didn't play the 12th. Sand traps are getting much better and looked like players are taking better care of them. Do you still have cart personnel? Asking for a friend.

Diamond in the Desert

Antelope Valley is the home of two courses. Rancho is by far the best of the two. This is a fun course that is both challenging and fair. I would recommend they have a cart girl for those of us that would enjoy a drink or snack.

Super Fun Course

I’ve played this course many times. I specifically like the layout as it plays fair. Some holes are a little challenging than others, but that’s what makes it a fun game. The greens are always perfect. The play was really slow today. I’m normally on and off in less than four hours. Today took six. Probably due to the increase of new golfers. But hey, we all started one day. Highly recommend!
Oh by the way, a cart girl would be great. I was hungry and thirsty throughout the game. Maybe even a way to call in an order between front and back holes.

Solid local course in decent winter shape.
Not too tough if the wind isn’t blowing, it was howling the day I played. Greens were fantastic
Smooth as can be and lightning fast.
