A rather interesting course to play at. A LOT of up and down hill, especially their signature Hole 18, which is a Par 6 hole (first time ever for me), it goes big downhill first, and a big uphill in front of green, not just the distance and accuracy, but also your course management skill, to lay up for your next shot. Was surprised to find out that this is actually a more than 100 years old course, big tribute to it 👍

Awesome terrain and nice views of the bay and the city from a rare perspective. Fairways and greens are ok, but not great. Cart trails are messy, like off road driving on the golf course. Main building seems in renovation, so be ready for some containers and mobile restrooms.

Went here for the first time for disc golf! The back 9 holes are free and located in the Chabot Park. Parking is free as well. Great layout along with areas to rest/sit while playing. Lots of shade with the trees and can get some good sun!

I’ve lived in the East Bay my entire life and for some reason I’ve never got around to playing here. I’m sad I didn’t come here sooner. It has an old school feel to it right when you enter the front gates. The clubhouse is charming and modeled after the old Spanish style. Putting and chipping areas are well maintained, and there’s a nice little driving range attached. The snack shack is run by some ladies with great energy and equally great tasting food. The course itself is in good condition especially for a muni. The greens are small and challenging, the fairways tight at times and you’ll definitely have some tricky side hill lies and elevation changes, but it makes for a fun play. Some of the views are simply stunning as well. Overall, it’s a fun course and I’ll be back to again soon.

I can’t name a course I’ve played like this. Only 5900 yards from blues but I was a club short all day. Finally figured it out on the back 9. You truly need to club up on any approach. Greens are relatively tiny and seem to sit flat. I can’t wait to come back bc course knowledge on this course is a must! This course has to be a blast dry.
