Beautiful course among the Redwoods

This is the best shape the course has been in since it’s heydays in the 1970’s. It is fully recovered from the CZU fire, although only the front nine is open for play.

Boulder creek

The course was in the best shape in many years. I wish it was 18 holes! Nice and warm up there. It is a narrow course on some holes which helps me sharpen up my game. It’s a super great value for the $!

Nice Short course but difficult to get there

Very winding road to get there on Bear Creek road. Should take alternative route but much longer. Many road sections under construction. No sign to display the hole number and yardage.
Fairways could be improved. Do not plan to golf here again.

9 holes in the Redwoods!

The course is beautiful placed in the redwoods! Been playing here for years love it. But the fairways are way to thick. Groom your fairways, on Friday’s! for us weekend Warriors we pay the weekend premium. You’re only doing 9 holes now, down from your 18. Please mow. Would definitely recommend this course though love it just don’t like the thick stuff in my fairways. But the grass is green and nice and the redwoods tall balls don’t go through the tree though. Can be a bit narrow. But it’s a fun challenging 9. I’ll be there next weekend!

Good Value

Good value, simple and fun 9. Great pace of play.
Conditions are a bit rough following some storms.
If you play here after the rain, be careful as it doesn’t drain well and can be flooded and muddy in many spots days after the last rain.

Great Pace, Needs some TLC

Drainage needs a big upgrade, hasn't rained in over a week and still a lot of mud and soft areas.

Great value, fun little course, wonderfully quick pace.

A nice little course that needs some TLC

Fairways were not groomed. Grass was pretty deep. Perhaps because of recent rains. Pretty, quiet setting. Very slow pace of play. Nice bar/grille.
