A beautiful course to enjoy

I have been really looking forward to playing this course and it didn't disappoint. There has been a lot rain in the Bay Area, but the course was in great condition. The scenery was amazing and the 9th hole was a treat! If you ever have a chance to play a round of golf while you're in Bay Area, try this course.

Interesting course, but not well maintained.

It is a very unique course with significant elevation changes in most of the holes. It is interesting and fun experience playing here. It’d have been much better if the course were maintained better. At the top there is the view of San Francisco and Oakland cities too. It is a course that you definitely want to be at least once, but hardly more often if the conditions stay like today.

Were not open on Dec. 25th

I called the pro shop on December 24th to confirm that they will be open on December 25th. The guy at the pro shop told me they were not open on that day nor are they open on Mondays. I reserved the tee time through golf now when I tried to get a refund they are now saying they were open on that day and golf now will not refund me. So either the guy on the 24th lied to me or the guy that golf now contacted is lying do not trust this course our golf now.
